Mias Musings: Life of Pi

Today I went to the cinema to watch Life of Pi. I didn't know anything about it apart from that there was a tiger and a man on a boat.
Frankie has been blabbing on all morning about it. 'Hey Mia!' She was saying. ' We're going to watch the Life of a Pie!! ' Haha ,very funny. Her story goes on about a Pie getting made then sold at Tescos and finally getting eaten.
Pi Patel's story is quite different. It starts off with Pi's name. He is named after a French swimming pool. Piscene Molitor.
His dad owns a zoo. He has multiple religions and a rude nickname. They also don't have that much money.
Which is why they have to take the animals aboard to Canada to sell them and live there.
When the boat sinks in the Marianas trench and Pi gets stranded on a life boat with a zebra with a broken leg, Orange Juice the Orang-Utang, a hyeana and a Tiger called Richard Parker a whole different story begins.
I will give you a couple of pointers; Floating Islands, Gods fury and an enormous whale.

Very good movie, amazing animations. 5/5 any day.
Beware. Animals will be eaten.

  2. I must make sure I see this film. I read the book years ago and have forgotten much of it so the film would be a good refresher for me. I like your review - it has inspired me! Granny Di xxx
