LIFE OF PI [2012]

Director Ang Lee takes on the near impossible task of adapting Yann Martel's novel Life Of Pi for the screen and much to my surprise it's results are quite successful.
It's beautifully shot, composed and so visually amazing, it's a rare occasion that I'd recommend it be seen in 3D.  Lee has a wonderful handle on the technology so that it becomes part of the story rather than to simply dazzle us.  Like the novel itself, it's a fantastic, spiritual journey that will make you realize how small, yet valuable, your life really is compared to the bigger picture.
