This is yet another book turned movie I have not read, and therefore I can't judge that aspect of it. If I'm being honest, though, that's fine by me because I prefer to judge movies as movies and not necessarily in comparison to their source material.
This film is very well done, and the vast majority of it is impressively carried by Suraj Sharma (who plays Pi as a young man) and a CGI tiger, which is a feat for any actor, but sort of stunning for an actor's first film. The scenery is beautiful, the story plays out well, and its thought provoking to say the least (not to spoil anything [unless you've read the book and therefore already know], but the ending made me ponder for hours). Good job, movie!
Also, the CGI tiger made me giggle more than it probably should have (it kept doing things that reminded me of my much smaller, less deadly kitties). I'm a sucker for animals.
