The life of PI-
So a good friend of mine aka sayang Mr.Shukri had invited me to watch movie together with him and fellow friends. So i told him that great at least we can escape from certain stress which we had been undergone for few while throughout this sem, where i had my great competitors in my class and striving to get a scholarship and shukri with his own MARA loan problems (a great time sucker). Well tinge of problems should not withhold your freedom and enjoyment right? Especially just right after some hard on periods.
Thus, me, my sayang, and my pink pink (Tan), Khidir (the pedophile) and Danial(the silent ranger) embarks on our journey to Alamanda. Actually this is my first time entering the place and definitely not gonna shop at there as the items were costing nose and hands. Phewww...
Well we had our dinner before indulging into Pi = 3.142 hahah, however shukri and danial seems to be a great epicureans as they already had their dinner...Hmmm cream puff boy (cremolicious). As they always said empty stomach...errrr whatever just dont care... A hungry stomach has no ears...
So we ate at banana leaf food court- a total loser and khidir took his dinner at kelantan cafe meanwhile Shukri bought some twisties to munch during the movie time.It is movie party in d house babe....then we enter the cinema rostrum without further ado. It was my first time 3D movie experience and not going to efface from my memory.
Well back to the story , The life of Pi- when i first looked at the poster i thought it should be about a tiger as a protagonist. Perhaps circus is coming to the cinema? I was totally wrong.. The story gives importance to all the characters and shows each characters benevolent acts. It portrays compassion through the character of a Mother as well as Pi himself who shows his compassion to a tiger (Richard /thirsty).
Pi as a boy, as a teenage and as an adult gives us an intro towards three specifically ordinary era of a man but how he seeks truth and at the same time make himself become a true man extraordinarily . How his experiences and questions that he asked to himself took an avatar which completely turn his life for better?
This is a movie where we learn about socialism, anti socialism, spectrum of a wild creatures' life, atheism, the supreme power of God and the rebellion and of course love .
Mind boggling but the choice remained to us. The inner meaning of how we look into our life, where we are given two choices and how we give them our personal meanings and switch a life to it. Mostly it is about unity in religion and how a boy struggles through all his life stranded and after he enters adolescence he starts to fall in love but was it last long? He then shows the value of family bonding. His faith to God and personal values and ethics ; would it help him to overcome difficult situations like when the tiger was drowning he helped it but at first he thought of killing it? He shows the disappointments in relationship, where the tiger left him alone after all the survival. This could direct us to normal human behavior- where most of us acquainted that many time in our life. He told us that he never had a chance to say "thank you"- symbolically telling us delaying to convey certain important messages to crucial persons in our life could over turn our life, where will never have the chance anymore...it is too late to be late.....
He tells us two stories, one in which he survives with Mr, Richard the tiger where the another one he compares the wild life into people. What we can see here was rather epic and terminological. He compares the characters of animals into human, as we are showing such values in crucial times. To know a man well, be with him in hard times. And the moment he told us that he was landed in an carnivorous island it epitomizes the current world which slowly dissolving and eradicating good values from us and make us be an animal rather showing human values.Meerkats symbolizes our ignorance and being in a society where everyone were consumed by the act of ignorance. The two Japanese guys were also an indication of human nature where we are refused to take the truth and in the name of logic we tend to manipulate the truth so that it could be trusted by our sense of logic. It shows how the truth is conveyed to us or more specifically how it has been delivered in the way we want it to be reformed.
He tells the world how a person can become a hero through trials and at the same time he is given a choice of being a third person or a host that lives relies on people (where he made up the story of his mother been killed in sake of him). Multi characters of man taken into the story in the form of varieties of wild life.
Therefore i think it is the time for us to think who we are in this actual world and what is our role? The supreme power of God- should it be denied? The unity in religion - where we always had overlooked. Why there should be a wall blocking us rather a bridge to connect us?The current world and our standing?
Finally who are we now??? The Zebra?The Tiger? The Orang Utan? The Hyena? or Pi himself??
ASK YOURSELF???
