Life of Pi Review
Today were going to talk about one of the most amazing, fantastic, incredible and just this awesome movie! Called LIFE OF PI!!!!
So let’s get right to it!
LIFE OF PI is a fantasy adventure novel by Yann Martel, which was published in 2001, but earlier this year the movie called LIFE OF PI was released, and so far it has been getting really great reviews.
The movie is about a 16 year old boy named Pi, whose father decides to move to Canada, the teen boy sadly has to leave is home, friends and lover behind, but he promises to return.
Suddenly one night there is a storm, and the family is caught in it, a crew member on the ship throws Pi in a Lifeboat to safe his life, Pi then watches helplessly as the ship sinks, killing his family and the crew members.
After the storm, Pi finds himself in the lifeboat with an injured zebra, but little did he know that there another hidden creature with them on the boat, it was a massive humongous tiger named Richard Parker, (who knew tigers had names) long story short Pi and the tiger eventually create a friendship, and connection also they begin to care for each other.
The movie offers some really cool effects, and if you’re like me, you’ll be interested in the amazing 3D work, and the very interesting visual effects, there’s a scene where a fish jumps from the water, and jumps right out of the frame and it almost looks like the fish is jumping right at it. So that was one of my favorite scenes, but let’s continue!
So not only it’s a visual masterpiece but Life of Pi has a really good storyline, after watching the movie, I left with Goosebumps. If you haven’t seen Life of Pi you’re missing out on an astonishing movie.
Find out if Pi and his new friend survive!
Watch this this epic adventurous movie and go on a journey with Pi in the movie Life of

    I thought that this best fit into the plot of the story because imagine what it would’ve been like to be Pi, to manage surviving out of a sinking ship and knowing that all your family members have died in the ship as it sunk deep into the ocean and being stuck in a lifeboat with wild animals not knowing if or when they’re going to eat you. It must have been a…

    His faith is tested as an adolescent when his father is forced to give up the family zoo, where Pi realises he's been as much a captive as the animals themselves. A Japanese freighter becomes a temporary ark on which the Patel family take the animals to be sold in Canada. But it's struck by a storm as dramatic as anything ever put on the screen, and Pi becomes a combination of Noah, Crusoe, Prospero and Job. Alone above the Mariana Trench, the deepest part of the Pacific, he's an orphan captaining a lifeboat with only a zebra, a hyena, a female orang-utan and the gigantic Bengal tiger Richard Parker for company.…

    On the journey, the ship sinks and Pi finds himself alone in a life boat, adrift at sea.

Although Pi is confronted with the dangers of these wild animals at sea, his extraordinary knowledge of animal behaviour, along with his faith and determination, allow him to survive, even after the other animals have fallen victim to the tiger’s predatory instincts.…

    At first Pi was telling Richard Parker to get to the boat which could easily be himself telling himself to get to the boat, when he has trouble reaching it he feels the need to give up and just when he was done with trying he is pulled up onto the life boat. After all how could have the tiger jumped onto the boat. The zebra represents a pattern mainly white and black which a sailor could easily represent. The sailor could have been dressed in white and the blood could have been represented by the black. Going on, once the hyena killed the monkey, the Bengal tiger then killed the Hyena. This could have been Pi enraging when the cook killed his mother. Once Pi killed the cook he was completely gone. I feel that Pi was just visioning a tiger and that is why the tiger never harmed him and rarely interacted with him. When Pi found the island I felt that he was simply not ready for real life and so he was drastically scared and so he thought he saw dead fish on the island, which caused him to only explore during the day. The island was considered toxic but no where on this planet has ever been recorded to have found an island so toxic and this 'island' was also never…

    The Life of PI and The Prophet were both books that caught my attention because of two reasons. The first reason was because of the fact that both main characters were somehow traveling while learning what it is they are doing. The second reason is due to the fact that it has to do something with religion or spiritual learning and learning about what life is and what we are supposed to do with it. Why I choose these two reasons is due to the fact that me personally in the future i would like to travel and learn more about my religion and what it is that i should do with my life. Where PI actually is stuck in a boat with a bengal lion to learn what life is The Prophet Is actually traveling and learning bit by bit what life has to offer and what he can do with it.…

    Pi begins to realize that he and Richard Parker are the only survivors of the sunken ship, and his survival mode takes a few days to kicks in. “I was alone and orphaned, in the middle of the Pacific, hanging on an oar, an adult tiger in front of me, sharks beneath me, a storm raging about me” (133). He knows he is alone with a 450-pound Bengal tiger, and that’s all he can think about. When survival mode kicks in, he begins to search the lifeboat for supplies and food that he would need in order to survive. Pi also realizes that he must make it clear to Richard Parker that he is the alpha male on the lifeboat in order for his life to be spared by the incredible cat. Pi is extremely alienated from all things on this lifeboat. Obviously he is alienated from his homeland while being stranded on a lifeboat in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. He is also alienated from his family, seeing as they have all drowned from the ship sinking. He has never been stranded on a boat before. He has no idea what to do. Everything he has been accustomed to at his home on land no longer applied to his life now on the ocean. As Said had said, the sadness of being exiled could never be surmounted. Pi felt this sadness. “That second night at sea stands in my memory as one…

    Big Fish is a story about a man, Edward Bloom, who is a magnificent story teller, and his son—William Bloom—who has a grudge against these stories. The movie was directed by Tim Burton in 2003, which he based off the Big Fish book written in 1988 by Daniel Wallace. Throughout the movie we see not only the present life of Edward Bloom, but the many past stories of his childhood and adult life. We are also introduced to several other characters including the younger version of Edward Bloom, Edward’s wife—Sandra, and Will’s wife— Penelope. The stories told in the movie are in Edward’s point of view, and we get many glimpses of where, what, and who Edward has done and met throughout his life. These range from going to a witch’s house and seeing his time and reason for death, to being in a circus, and even to falling in love with his present wife Sandra.…
