Not a Special one

Rating: 7/10 (29 November 2012)

This is the first movie that i watched in an IMAX theater, so was very much excited to watch. The Visual effects are really good but not great, animations are excellent!!. A great movie to watch with kids and family.The movie has a good start with a narration on the character - PI. The charm gradually fades till the visual and animation come into picture.Felt a bit weird to listen the conversations happening in the Indian style(No offense, I am Indian too).I feel normal English accent could have been more gripping.None of the characters are gripping enough except the character - Richard Parker.I wont tell who Richard Parker is, portrayal of this character is excellent. Ang Lee has focused more on visual effects and has digressed from the characterization of roles.Its worth watching once,its not a movie that you will remember for a long time.The movie will be in no picture when movies emphasizing on visual effects start to come(which is a trend happening now). If you are a classical movies lover, don't watch it with high expectation, you may be let down.
