Life of Pi


Life of Pi is a 2012 American adventure drama film based on Yann Martel's 2001 novel of the same name.

The film is about an Indian family. The main character, Pi, was named Piscine Molitor Patel after a swimming pool in France.

Pi is raised a Hindu, but he is introduced to Christianity and Islam during his teenage years, and starts to follow all three religions as he "just wants to love God."

His family owns a zoo and one day, the father is thinking to migrate to Canada and start a new life. Sadly, there was a storm and their ship capsized. The only survivor was Pi.

He gets stranded in a lifeboat after a shipwreck in which his family dies, with a Bengal tiger named Richard Parker. He then learned to live and survive on the sea.

After 227 days, the lifeboat washes up onto the coast of Mexico and Richard Parker immediately escapes into the nearby jungle.

This movie has a very good visual effect, which I like :) I almost thought that this movie was based on a true story....
