ReviewsThe Globe And Mail (Toronto) - Every once in a long while, the right director comes across the right project at just the right moment, and things so often discordant fall into perfect harmony., Total Film - A riot of saturated colour and delirious imagination, Ang Lee's adap radiates spirituality. But it's also a simple, thrilling and gently uplifting tale of a boy, a boat and a tiger. Take the plunge., Empire - To produce a coherent film from Martel's tricky novel would be achievement enough, but Ang Lee has extracted something beautiful, wise and, at times, miraculous.
