Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

thegornie So this dude was the lone survivor of a shipwreck, and he floated around for 8 months before washing up on the Mexico coast. That's a rare, amazing story as it is. No need to embellish anything about it. The mundane parts of figuring out how to catch fish, constantly being on the verge losing hope, being unbearably lonely, and weathering storms in a tiny vessel? You can easily tell those stories and keep my interest. As the Tom Hanks character did in Cast Away.Telling such an incredible, completely ludicrous life story that any sane listener would naturally assume he was embellishing? The charm of Forrest Gump was that the Tom Hanks character wasn't embellishing.Of course the main point of The Life of Pi is to spotlight the natural human awe of storytelling, particularly to explain things beyond our feeble comprehension like religion. But if I was the author dude, I would have punched this jerk in the face for wasting my entire day. I can't recall ever feeling so frustrated from a movie as I did with about ten minutes remaining in this embarrassment of a film.That said, visually beautiful and a great musical score, yadda yadda yadda. But the story is so absurdly frustrating and unforgivable.

paulclaassen This highly acclaimed, multi award winning film was also a huge box office success, earning $609 million on a $120 million budget. Unfortunately I was not as impressed. The visuals and effects are indeed impeccable, but that's as much as I enjoyed about the film. The fact that Pi was telling the story and the actual story were flashbacks, removed every inch of suspense, as I knew nothing was going to happen to him. Why they chose to do it that way is beyond me. It also suffered from way too many plot flaws and was anything but credible. You honestly want me to believe the tiger was under the canvas of the raft for more than a day without making an appearance or even a sound?? And what was the purpose of the weird meerkat island? Nothing their made any sense and did not contribute to the story whatsoever, apart from adding to the already long running time. When Pi finally got to shore, the tiger just ran off!! I was expecting so much more, as Pi tried gaining the tiger's trust all along, and it seemed to work, until they reached the shore. Idiotic tiger! At the end, you still don't know if everything he told actually happened or whether it was just a figment of his imagination. I'll go with the latter.

jguans To me, Life of Pi is a movie talking about a teenager facing a disaster that make him lose his family and struggle to leave alone in the middle of pacific ocean. In this film, religion or faith is not special but a way to deal with such trauma which could make a man insane. This film deserves to be watched more than twice. Each time you will learn more from the movie, not only pay more attention to the details, but also with more life experiences that help you understand the scenes more deeply.

simonsilvacreative A movie that tries too hard with too many special effects that in many scenes are poorly done in Canada. In the end I really didn't care what happened to the main character and so I turned it off before it was done and went out for some desert. I enjoyed my life with some Pie!
