What we have here is a film that has no direction. Is it an art film or a blockbuster? None of them. While Ang Lee usually has great cinematography, here it serves no purpose, even if it tries to. Of course, there are big problems with the CGI here. It looks unpleasant for me, it simply doesn't work - it looks fake, especially when it's overused. I'm truly disappointed with Ang Lee for agreeing to use such massive amounts of CGI... Maybe I'm too subjective on this matter, but it really dragged the film down for me. Another disappointing aspect is that the film literally tells you that it's actually symbolic. <Look, THIS symbol and THIS one, those are SYMBOLS. The ending is also VERY SYMBOLIC because even the things you thought that were not symbolic, it turns out they WERE SYMBOLS.> This forced cheap symbolism really annoyed me. Even the ambiguity of the story is forced. Obviously Ang Lee's weakest film.

To me, Life of Pi is a movie talking about a teenager facing a disaster that make him lose his family and struggle to leave alone in the middle of pacific ocean. In this film, religion or faith is not special but a way to deal with such trauma which could make a man insane. This film deserves to be watched more than twice. Each time you will learn more from the movie, not only pay more attention to the details, but also with more life experiences that help you understand the scenes more deeply.

There isn't much wrong with the movie everything is pretty much perfect the acting, the visuals, the story are all points that stand out about this movie and they are all executed well. The Life of Pi is a story that everyone in the world should get to know.
