The film emerged as a critical and commercial success,
earning over $609 million worldwide. And after scoring four Academy Awards,
Life of Pi is sure to attract lots of attention on home video, and it deserves
it. On March 12, 2013, 20th Century Fox released Life of Pi 3D Blu-ray which
includes Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray, DVD and UltraViolet. 20th Century Fox's Blu-ray
release does justice to the film's eye-candy visuals—particularly if you go for
the 3D version—and the disc includes a wealth of special features, including a
terrific hour-long making-of documentary. Highly recommended!

2. Life of Pi Reviews
- Flawed, yes, but marvellously ambitious, and unforgettably gorgeous to look at. - Tom Huddleston from Time Out
- Mr. Lee's film is stronger as a visual experience-especially in 3-D-than an emotional one, but it has a final plot twist that may also change what you thought you knew about the ancient art of storytelling. - Joe Morgenstern from Wall Street Journal
- A movie that can't be dismissed because there is too much in it but can't be embraced because it's all spread too thin. - Mick LaSalle from San Francisco Chronicle
- This movie is to be seen and experienced. It is not to be heard. - Will Leitch from Deadspin
- The power of Life of Pi sneaks up on you, rather like the raw sadness of Lee's best-known previous prestige pic, Brokeback Mountain. - Margot Harrison from Seven Days
- "Life of Pi" isn't just a visual effects movie stuck at sea. There's a compelling story here as well. - James Plath from Movie Metropolis
- Mystical and endless as the number pi, 'The Life of Pi' works on a number of levels, all of them enchanting. - Linda Cook from KWQC-TV (Iowa)
- Ang Lee's extraordinary, lyrical, beautiful, moving, genre-defying Life of Pi can be recommended with the simple, sweeping assurance that it is unlike anything you have ever seen before. - Jim Schembri from 3AW
- (Ang) Lee has gone above and beyond, executing the job with near flawless precision. - Matt Neal from The Standard
