Movie Reviews

Empire - 10/10 by Olly RichardsTo produce a coherent film from Martel's tricky novel would be achievement enough, but Ang Lee has extracted something beautiful, wise and, at times, miraculous.
Total Film - 10/10 by Matt MuellerA riot of saturated colour and delirious imagination, Ang Lee's adap radiates spirituality. But it's also a simple, thrilling and gently uplifting tale of a boy, a boat and a tiger. Take the plunge.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - 10/10 by Rick GroenEvery once in a long while, the right director comes across the right project at just the right moment, and things so often discordant fall into perfect harmony.
Chicago Sun-Times - 10/10 by Roger EbertIs it real? Is this whole story real? I refuse to ask that question. Life of Pi is all real, second by second and minute by minute, and what it finally amounts to is left for every viewer to decide. I have decided it is one of the best films of the year.
Los Angeles Times - 10/10 by Betsy SharkeyThere are always moral crosscurrents in Lee's most provocative work, but so magical and mystical is this parable, it's as if the filmmaker has found the philosopher's stone.
New York Magazine (Vulture) - 10/10 by David EdelsteinPi has designed his own terrarium to keep from staring directly into the abyss. It's not denial. It's faith in something else: the transformative power of storytelling. The film is transcendent.
Time - 10/10 by Richard CorlissPi is a giant leap forward, outward and upward in expanding the resources of the evolving medium of movies. Magical realism was rarely so magical and never before so real.
The Hollywood Reporter - 10/10 by Todd McCarthyMeticulous care is evident in every aspect of the film. All three actors playing Pi are outstanding.
The New Republic - 10/10 by David ThomsonVeteran filmmakers will warn you, don't film at sea and don't work with animals. Ang Lee built a vast tank in Taiwan and he whips up awesome storms. [However,] watching the water here is more rewarding than watching the characters.
KWQC-TV (Iowa) - 10/10 by Linda CookMystical and endless as the number pi, 'The Life of Pi' works on a number of levels, all of them enchanting.
