IMDb Rating: 8.1/10
My rating: 5.9/10
Ang Lee ("Ride with the devil", "Hulk", "Brokeback Mountain" and lots others) a very talented director and a lot of good movies under his belt does his part brilliantly for the movie, but the movie itself wasn't all that it was promised (My humble opinion). Of course based on the novel of the same name.
Suraj Sharma (the young Pi Patel) with a very obnoxious accent going "RICHAD PAAKAAA" throughout the movie was very annoying. Irrfan Khan (adult Pi Patel) however, (and as usual I may add) gives a very serene performance. The only performance that basically saved the movie.
I gave it 5.9 only because of the visuals. I don't know about the novel but the movie was just OK for me. Not at all how people describe to be. But yes, the visuals, no doubt. Brilliant. (I know people are going to hate us but come on! )
So, I wouldn't recommend this movie unless you want to see beautiful sceneries and all that.
