"Life of Pi" DVD is better than the book!

I read Life of Pi by Yann Martel back in April of 2008, but just watched the movie on DVD this past week.   I enjoyed the movie much more.  The part I found boring in the book was condensed and went quick in the movie and the lifeboat scenes were very well done!  Also, the movie wasn't as confusing as the book to me.  Richard Parker, the tiger, and Pi are both great!  It was fun seeing their relationship develop and that was my favorite part of the book as well.
