An aesthetically dynamic motion picture, lacking in quality.

Rating: 7/10 (11 December 2012)

The Life of Pi.
An average motion picture overall, it is not a story to garner much critical acclaim. However, the cinematography was above par, and the 3-D effects, for once, were truly worth it.
Sadly, the actors were either not too skilled, or were given roles that did not allow for much creative expression. Most of the shock and awe of the film were delivered through the use of sublime CGI and visuals.
The score was beautifully rendered, and the journey of the young boy through the mighty oceans can be seen as being metaphorically deep, but it lacked in substance nonetheless.
Watch it once for the beautiful vision of one man, nothing else.
3.5/5
