"Life of Pi" is narrated by an older Pi and takes place in the present as he tells his life story to a writer. Pi begins with how he got his name and how his family owned a zoo, but eventually leads into his family needing to leave India for financial . The heart of the story lies in Pi as a young man and the time he spent out at sea on a lifeboat with a tiger named Richard Parker, but getting to that point is quite an ordeal (苦难考验). Pi loses everything and everyone close to him in the blink of an eye and he doesn't  on making what feels like an unbreakable bond with a Bengal tiger.

The film offers a rather marvelous message about religion as Pi discusses the experimentation with several different religions as a young boy. Even though it seems kind of silly that a boy has  so many religions at one point in his life, it portrays a/an  message in a light that doesn't seem too preachy (说教的). But the religious aspect is really only a backdrop for being on your own  to finding who you really are. Feeling so alone for so long and having Pi talk about not being alone and not getting to say goodbye to those he cared about most is one of those things that just hits you really hard.

While witnessing Pi attempt to tame Richard Parker is really , there are so many unbelievable sights to witness in" Life of Pi". There's the whale, the jellyfish, the flying fish, that  storm, and that seaweed island with all of the meerkats (a kind of monkey). "Life of Pi" never really lets up on being breathtaking and amazing from beginning to end.

"Life of Pi" is pleasantly satisfying. With a heartfelt message, beautiful visuals, and stunning camera work. "Life of Pi" is truly a sight to behold and illustrates how  3D can be to a film that isn't just a summer hit or blockbuster.
