Spectacular show of Titans...

Rating: 9/10 (4 December 2012)

Elite club of exquisite works by Yan Martel, Ang Lee and team. Kudos to the ravishing and bold depiction of cinematography by Claudia Miranda. The struggle for survival becomes elegant when you have wealth of faith. Even the most horrifying experience hold a beauty within. Surviving a shipwreck for 227 days in an open sea with the dynamic mate such as a Bengal Tiger and crossing Pacific in a life boat is perhaps an unusual occurrence. However faith, friendship and perseverance can make such a tale. Superlative 3D technology and other technological and visual effects are simply jaw dropping and give a tactile essence. Story's opening fashion sets an anticipation of belief in God which is carried thematically. Drama and tension keeps the film truly electric. Odyssey that can rightly set on a voyage on cinematic triumph of a beautiful class. Pondicherry is textured as a delight. Visual mastery is the x factor of the movie and the best part, it never any where dominates the emotional and humanitarian aspects of the creation. Convincing enough to be called as a visual feast.
