《少年派的奇幻漂流》英文观后感一
I watched a film called Life of Pi in this winter holidays.I think that it must be a great film.
Pi is an Indian boy.At first his name is Picine.He doesn’t like this name.So everyone calls him Pi.It meansπ.
Pi’s father had a zoo.There were many animals in it.Pi got on well with these animals.When Pi was 17 years old,his father decided to move his family to Canada.So his whole family went to Canada with some animals by ship.His father wanted to sell these animals for a high price.
On the way to Canada,the ship was broken by the strom.Only Pi and four animals survived on a lifeboat. These animals included a tiger,a zebra,a hyena and an orangutan. The hyena killed the zebra and the orangutan.but it was killed by the tiger. The tiger’s name was Richard Parke.
In the next 227 days Pi and Richard Parke drifted on the ocean.At first they were wary of each other.Pi shared the food with Richard Parke. They experienced storms and passed by the ogre island together.Pi had come to know that Richard Parke also had feelings.At the same time, he believed that the God was looking at him and always blessed him.
At last the lifeship drifted at Mexico. Richard Parke went away without turning his head when they was saved. Pi was very sad.
At last the lifeship drifted at Mexico. Richard Parke went away without turning his head when they was saved. Pi was very sad.
After I watched this film I thought a lot. Can I be calm like Pi if I sail a boat with a tiger?And do you think the god is looking at you anytime?The film also tells me that we must have the courage to face difficulties and got on well with each other.
今年寒假我看了一部名为《少年派的奇幻漂流》的电影。我觉得它一定是一部很棒的电影。
皮是一个印度男孩。起初他的名字叫皮辛。他不喜欢这个名字。所以大家都叫他皮。意思是π。
皮的父亲有一个动物园。里面有很多动物。皮和这些动物相处得很好。皮17岁时，他的父亲决定把他的家人搬到加拿大。所以他全家乘船带着一些动物去了加拿大。他的父亲想以高价出售这些动物。
在去加拿大的路上，船被暴风雨打碎了。只有一只皮和四只动物在救生艇上幸存下来。这些动物包括老虎、斑马、土狼和猩猩。鬣狗杀死了斑马和猩猩，但它被老虎杀死了。老虎的名字叫理查德·帕克。
在接下来的227天里，皮和理查德·帕克漂浮在海上。起初他们彼此都很小心。皮和理查德·帕克一起分享食物。他们经历了暴风雨，一起经过了魔鬼岛。皮知道理查德·帕克也有感情。同时，他相信上帝在看着他，并且一直祝福他。
这艘救生船终于在墨西哥漂流了。当他们获救时，理查德·帕克没有回头就走了。皮很伤心。
看完这部电影后我想了很多。如果我和老虎一起驾船，我能像皮一样平静吗？你认为上帝随时都在看着你吗？这部电影还告诉我，我们必须有勇气面对困难，彼此相处融洽。
《少年派的奇幻漂流》英文观后感二
Life of Pi is a masterful and utterly original novel that is at once the story of a young castaway who faces immeasurable hardships on the high seas, and a meditation on religion, faith, art and life that is as witty as it is profound. Using the threads of all of our best stories, Yann Martel has woven a glorious spiritual adventure that makes us question what it means to be alive, and to believe.
Growing up in Pondicherry, India, Piscine Molitor Patel - known as Pi - has a rich life. Bookish by nature, young Pi acquires a broad knowledge of not only the great religious texts but of all literature, and has a great curiosity about how the world works. His family runs the local zoo, and he spends many of his days among goats, hippos, swans, and bears, developing his own theories about the nature of animals and how human nature conforms to it. Pi’s family life is quite happy, even though his brother picks on him and his parents aren’t quite sure how to accept his decision to simultaneously embrace and practise three religions - Christianity, Hinduism, and Islam.
But despite the lush and nurturing variety of Pi’s world, there are broad political changes afoot in India, and when Pi is sixteen, his parents decide that the family needs to escape to a better life. Choosing to move to Canada, they close the zoo, pack their belongings, and board a Japanese cargo ship called the Tsimtsum. Travelling with them are many of their animals, bound for zoos in North America. However, they have only just begun their journey when the ship sinks, taking the dreams of the Patel family down with it. Only Pi survives, cast adrift in a lifeboat with the unlikeliest oftravelling companions: a zebra, an orang-utan, a hyena, and a 450-pound Royal Bengal tiger named Richard Parker.
Thus begins Pi Patel’s epic, 227-day voyage across the Pacific, and the powerful story of faith and survival at the heart of Life of Pi. Worn and scared, oscillating between hope and despair, Pi is witness to the playing out of the food chain, quite aware of his new position within it. When only the tiger is left of the seafaring menagerie, Pi realizes that his survival depends on his ability to assert his own will, and sets upon a grand and ordered scheme to keep from being Richard Parker’s next meal.
As Yann Martel has said in one interview, “The theme of this novel can be summarized in three lines. Life is a story. You can choose your story. And a story with an imaginative overlay is the better story.” And for Martel, the greatest imaginative overlay is religion. “God is a shorthand for anything that is beyond the material - any greater pattern of meaning.” In Life of Pi, the question of stories, and of what stories to believe, is front and center from the beginning, when the author tells us how he was led to Pi Patel and to this novel: in an Indian coffee house, a gentleman told him, “I have a story that will make you believe in God.” And as this novel comes to its brilliant conclusion, Pi shows us that the story with the imaginative overlay is also the story that contains the most truth.
《少年派的奇幻漂流》是一部精湛、独具匠心的小说，它既描写了一个在公海上面对无穷困苦的年轻流浪汉的故事，又描写了宗教、信仰、艺术和生活的沉思，既诙谐又深刻。严·马特尔用我们所有最精彩故事的线索，编织了一次光荣的精神冒险，使我们质疑活着和信仰意味着什么。
在印度的庞迪切里长大的鹞鹞帕特尔（Pi）有着丰富的生活。年轻的彪天生是书呆子，他不仅对伟大的宗教文本，而且对所有文学都有着广泛的了解，对世界如何运转有着极大的好奇心。他的家人经营着当地的动物园，他的许多日子都在山羊、河马、天鹅和熊中间度过，发展他自己关于动物本质和人性如何顺应的理论。皮的家庭生活相当幸福，即使他的兄弟挑剔他和他的父母不太确定如何接受他的决定，同时拥抱和实践三种宗教-基督教，印度教和伊斯兰教。
但是尽管皮的世界丰富多彩，充满养育，但是印度正在发生着广泛的政治变化，当皮16岁的时候，他的父母决定这个家庭需要逃离到更好的生活中去。他们选择搬到加拿大，关闭了动物园，收拾行李，登上了一艘名为尖峰的日本货船。与他们一起旅行的是他们的许多动物，前往北美的动物园。然而，当船沉没时，他们才刚刚开始他们的旅程，帕特尔家族的梦想也随之破灭。只有皮幸存下来，漂流在一艘救生艇上，与最不像的伙伴：斑马，猩猩，土狼，和450磅的皇家孟加拉虎理查德帕克。
因此，皮·帕特尔的史诗般的、长达227天的横渡太平洋的航行开始了，皮的生命的核心就是信仰和生存的强大故事。皮又累又怕，在希望和绝望之间摇摆，他见证了食物链的退出，非常清楚自己在食物链中的新位置。当只有老虎离开海洋动物园时，皮意识到他的生存取决于他坚持自己意志的能力，并开始制定一个宏伟而有序的计划，以免成为理查德·帕克的下一顿饭。
正如Yann Martel在一次采访中说的，“这部小说的主题可以概括为三行。生活是一个故事。你可以选择你的故事。对马特尔来说，最具想象力的故事是宗教。“上帝是超越物质的任何东西的速记——任何更大的意义模式。”《皮的生活》中，故事的问题以及相信什么故事的问题，从一开始就是最前沿和中心的，当作者告诉我们他是如何被带到皮·帕特尔和这本小说的：在印度的咖啡馆里，一位绅士告诉他，“我有一个故事。”当这部小说得出辉煌的结论时，Pi告诉我们，具有想象力的故事也是包含最真实的故事。
《少年派的奇幻漂流》英文观后感三
Life of Pi emerged as a critical and commercial success, earning about $600 million worldwide. It was nominated for three Golden Globe Awards which included the Best Picture – Drama and the Best Director and won the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score. At the 85th Academy Awards it had eleven nominations, including Best Picture and Best Adapted Screenplay, and won four (the most for the event) including Best Director for Ang Lee. The story involves the 227 days that its teenage hero spent drifting across the Pacific in a lifeboat with a Bengal tiger. They found themselves in the same boat after an amusing and colorful prologue, which itself could have been enlarged into an exciting family film. Then it expanded into a parable of survival, acceptance and adaptation.
Pi was born in India .He believed in Christianity, Islam, and Hinduism at the same time. As the son of a zookeeper, Pi had a special knowledge of animal behavior and a
2
fervent love of stories. When Pi was sixteen, his family emigrated from India to North America aboard a Japanese cargo ship, along with their zoo animals bound for new homes.
The ship sank. Pi’s family members all died. He luckily fell on the lifeboat and survived, with his only companions a hyena, a gorilla, a wounded zebra, and Richard Parker, a Bengal tiger.
In the first 3 days, the hyena killed and ate the gorilla and zebra. And then the tiger killed the hyena. Pi knew that he can't beat Richard, so he made the final choice to get along with Richard in the face of drift life. In the 7 months, he collected water, fish and shrimp, and used all the sea survival skills to feed the tiger, as well as to let himself down. Soon the tiger had dispatched all but Pi, whose fear, knowledge, and smartness allowed him to coexist with Richard Parker for 227 days while lost at sea. When they finally reached the coast of Mexico, Richard Parker fled to the jungle, never to be seen again.
Of course, the drift also encountered storm, sharks and a variety of exciting and and bloody scenes. After a short stay in the cannibal island, Pi left with the tiger in panic and began drifting again until he was rescued in Mexico beach. At the same time, the tiger Richard turned to the forest and disappeared without looking back.
The story had a few good shots that I cannot forget. For the purpose to let Pi recognize that the tigers are brutal, Pi’s father put weak animals in a tiger cage, letting pi saw the bloody scene. It was cruel, but it is the rule of survival. When Pi asked the gorilla where its children had gone, we can easily tell the deep sorrow inside its eyes. It’s the deep mother love. Pi and Richard Parker both looked at sea water when there were only
3
they two left on the boat. We don’t know what Richard Parker saw, but Pi must have seen his dead parents and his animal friends. We could imagine Richard Parker saw the forest where it was caught by hunters at early age. It once had home and loved ones and it was missing all these at the moment.
If the movie stops here, we will just regard it as an fantasy movie with dazzling visual effects like Avatar .But Ang Lee is always beyond our expectation.
The truth is:
Pi told us two stories. One was about the drift between the young man and the tiger. The other one was what the novelist concluded that the cook killed and ate the seaman, then killed Pi’s mother, eventually Pi killed and ate the cook. The grown Pi didn’t declare against the conclusion. Instead, he just asked the novelist which story he liked. Grown Pi said the novelist believed in god after he got the answer.
The two stories have one thing in common: in the end only Pi survived. But looking back the reciprocating scenes and all details, it’s not hard to find the truth that the first story is the metaphor of the reality and the second one is the reality. 1. All of life is an act of letting go, but what hurts the most is not taking a moment to say goodbye.
2. Pi: “Religion is a house with many rooms.” Writer: “But no room for doubt?”Pi: “Oh yes! On every floor.”
3. I must say a word about fear. It is life’s only true opponent. Only fear can defeat life.
4
4. If every unfolding we experience takes us further along in life, then, we are truly experiencing what life is offering... 1. Life is a story about belief and courage
Life of Pi, according to Yann Martel, the author of the novel, can be summarized in three statements: "Life is a story... You can choose your story... A story with god is the better story." A recurring theme throughout the film seems to be believability. Pi at the end of the film asks the two investigators "If you stumble at mere believability, what are you living for?" According to Gordon Houser there are two main themes of the film: "that all life is interdependent, and that we live and breathe via belief." Some people have described the story as one of "personal growth through adversity." The main character learnt that "tigers are dangerous" at a young age when his father forced him to watch the zoo's Royal Bengal tiger ate a live goat. Later, after the shipwreck, he spent 7 months with the tiger on the lifeboat, faced with many difficulties. During this hard experience, he tried all he can to survive and to get on well with the tiger. Pi developed "alpha" qualities as he mustered the strength, will and skills that he needed to survive.
Life is a travel of defeating animal desire.
Pi gave the answer to the question “Live as a monster or die as a good man?” Can something brutal and something spiritualist coexist with each other? The answer in Guardisland is to ruin one’s soul to prevent his/her animal desire. Animal desire and soul
5
go to ruin together. Great Gun told us that soul can defeat animal desire. But Pi seems like to choose to be a good guy in life whose heart is protected by animals. Thank god for giving soul to me, thank animal desire for enriching my soul.
In Brokeback Mountain , a phrase became popular because of Ang Lee: there is a Brokeback Mountain in everyone’s heart, in Life of Pi, it can be replaced by that there is a tiger in everyone’s heart.
I was flying in the sea , there was a Bengal tiger named Richard Parker inside me.
《少年派的奇幻漂流》是根据严·马特尔2001年的同名小说改编的2012年美国生存剧。这是李安导演的。故事情节围绕着一位名叫“Pi”的印度男子展开，他讲述了一位小说家的生平故事，以及16岁时他如何从船难中幸存下来，他的家人死于船难，他与一只孟加拉虎一起被困在太平洋救生艇上。
Pi的生命作为一个关键的商业成功而出现，在全球赚取了约6亿美元。它被提名为三项金球奖，其中包括最佳影片-戏剧和最佳导演，并赢得了金球奖最佳原创评分。在第85届奥斯卡颁奖典礼上，该片获得11项提名，包括最佳影片和最佳改编剧本，并获得4项（最多）提名，包括李安最佳导演。故事讲述了227天，少年英雄乘着孟加拉虎的救生艇漂流穿越太平洋。在一段有趣而多彩的序言之后，他们发现自己处于同一条船上，这本身可以放大成一部激动人心的家庭电影。然后它扩展成一个关于生存、接受和适应的寓言。
皮出生在印度。他同时信仰基督教、伊斯兰教和印度教。作为一名动物园管理员的儿子，皮对动物行为有特殊的了解。

热爱故事。皮在16岁的时候，他的家人乘坐一艘日本货船从印度移居到北美，连同他们的动物园动物一起前往新的家园。
船沉了。皮的家人都死了。幸运的是，他跌倒在救生艇上，幸免于难。他唯一的伙伴是一只鬣狗、一只大猩猩、一只受伤的斑马，还有一只孟加拉虎理查德·帕克。
在最初的3天，鬣狗杀死并吃掉了大猩猩和斑马。然后老虎杀死了土狼。皮知道自己不能打败理查德，所以面对漂泊的生活，他最终选择了和理查德相处。在这7个月里，他收集了水、鱼和虾，并运用了所有的海洋生存技能喂养老虎，同时也让自己失望。不久，老虎就赶走了除了皮之外的所有人。皮的恐惧、知识和聪明使他在海上迷路时和理查德·帕克共处了227天。当他们最终到达墨西哥海岸时，理查德·帕克逃到了丛林，再也见不到了。
当然，漂流中也遇到了暴风雨、鲨鱼以及各种激动人心的血腥场面。在食人岛短暂停留后，皮带着老虎惊慌地离开了，并开始再次漂流，直到在墨西哥海滩被救起。与此同时，老虎理查德转向森林，不回头就消失了。
这个故事有好几张我忘不了的好照片。为了让皮认识到老虎是残忍的，皮的父亲把弱小的动物关在老虎笼里，让皮看到了血腥的场面。这是残酷的，但它是生存的法则。当皮问大猩猩孩子们去了哪里，我们可以很容易的看出大猩猩眼中的悲伤。这是深深的母爱。皮和理查德·帕克在只有海水的时候都看着海水。
三
他们两个在船上离开了。我们不知道理查德·帕克看到了什么，但是皮一定看到了他死去的父母和他的动物朋友。我们可以想象理查德·帕克在幼年时看到森林被猎人捕获的情景。它曾经有家和亲人，现在却失去了这一切。
如果电影停在这里，我们只会把它当作一部像阿凡达那样具有令人眼花缭乱的视觉效果的幻想电影。但是李安总是出乎我们的意料。
事实是：
皮给我们讲了两个故事。一个是关于年轻人和老虎之间的漂流。另一个是小说家得出的结论，厨师杀死并吃掉了水手，然后杀死了皮的母亲，最后皮杀死并吃掉了厨师。大皮并没有反对这个结论。相反，他只是问小说家他喜欢哪个故事。葛朗彪说小说家得到答案后相信上帝。
这两个故事有一个共同点：最后只有皮幸存下来。但是回顾往复的场景和所有的细节，不难发现第一个故事是现实的隐喻，第二个是现实。1。所有的生活都是放手的行为，但是最让人伤心的是没有花一点时间说再见。
皮：“宗教是一个有很多房间的房子。”作家：“但是毫无疑问？皮：“哦，是的！在每一层。”
我必须谈谈恐惧。这是人生唯一的真正对手。只有恐惧才能战胜生活。
四
如果我们所经历的每一次展现都让我们在生活中走得更远，那么，我们就是在真正地体验生活所提供的一切……人生是一个故事。
