Life of Pi读后感

After watching Life of Pi

I have seen Life of Pi several days ago，but I can’t forget Pi and his incredible story，and the movie was really a big shock to me.

The storyline revolves around a 16-year old boy named Piscine Molitor "Pi" Patel, who survives a shipwreck in which his family dies, and is stranded in the Pacific Ocean on a lifeboat with a Bengal tiger named Richard Parker.

When Pi is 16, his father decides to move the family to Winnipeg , Canada, where he intends to settle and sell the zoo animals. They book passage on a Japanese freighter named Tzimtzum. One night there is a storm, and Pi asks his brother Ravi to come up on deck to watch. However, Ravi refuses, and Pi goes alone. The ship begins to founder while Pi is on deck. He tries to find his family, but a crew member throws him into a lifeboat. After the storm, Pi finds himself in the lifeboat with an injured zebra, and is joined by an orangutan. The hyena kills the zebra and then the orangutan. Suddenly the tiger Richard Parker emerges from under the tarp, killing the hyena. After many days at sea, Pi trains the tiger to accept him in the boat. He also realizes that caring for the tiger is keeping him alive.Weeks later and half dead, they reach a floating island,Both Pi and Richard Parker eat and drink freely and regain strength. But at night the island transforms into a hostile environment: the fresh water turns acidic digesting all the dead fish that died in the pools,. Pi discovers the island's secrets when he finds a human tooth. The next day, Pi and the tiger leave the island. The lifeboat eventually reaches the coast of Mexico and Pi is rescued and carried to a hospital.Insurance agents for the Japanese freighter come to interview him. They do not believe his story and ask what "really" happened. He tells a less fantastic account of sharing the lifeboat with his mother, a sailor , and the cook. The cook kills the sailor in order to eat him and use him as bait. In a later struggle, Pi's mother pushes him to safety on a smaller raft, and the cook stabs her as she falls overboard. Later, Pi returns, takes the knife and kills the cook.

I think there are three stories in the movie ,and the director Ang Lee maybe wanted to let us audience to guess the meaning of the story，and there were many metaphors in this movie.

This is not just a movie, it is a real masterpiece. It is what a film should be. We can understand the beauty of life through Life of Pi,and we also can seek for our life of Pi. If every unfolding we experience takes us further along in life, then, we are truly experiencing what life is offering...
