ManiakJiggy This is How Movies Should Be Made
Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!
Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Rueiro Don't waste your time watching this. The script is full of India-seen-from-a-western-POW-clichés, the camerawork is murderous, and the child actors are a total pain in the a***. I gave up after just 40 minutes, couldn't take any more of it. Back in the mid-90s a very well known and respected Spanish film critic, Carlos Pumares, once said: Cinema has only 25 years of life left. And he was right. The illustrious members of the Academy who awarded this piece of trash with EIGHT Oscars either are PC crusaders looking for a few medals or a bunch of morons who spend all day sitting on their brains.
missrose19 Slumdog Millionaire is a 2008 drama film directed by Danny Boyle, written by Simon Beaufoy, and produced by Christian Colson. Set and filmed in India, it is an adaptation of the novel Q & A (2005) by Indian author Vikas Swarup. The actors are: Dev Patel as Jamal Malik, a boy born and raised in the poverty of Mumbai, Freida Pinto as Latika, a girl from the streets who joins Jamal and Salim and Anil Kapoor as Prem Kumar, the game show host. The story is about Jamal, a teen who is accused of cheating on the Indian Version of "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?". It is a good movie with an estimated buget of $15,000,000. The film won 8 Oscars and other 144 wins & 126 nominations. The acting is really good and I love the movie. If you are into dramas and you need something to watch, I recommend this movie.
georgiantica Slumdog Millionaire is a story about a poor child from Mumbai, who became rich. He was born in this poor city and there he met his first love.This child had only his brother with him, until he betrayed him.This child became rich because he went to an intelligence show and the questions perfectly matched to his experiences from the past. I recognized some actors, like Dev Patel or Freida Pinto because i have seen some of their movies, like "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" or "Chappie".My favourite character is Jamal Malik, because he never gave up. In my opinion, the movie is very good because it represents the real lifestyle of a big number of humans.Also, it represents the fact that nowadays, money can buy everything, except happiness.But, i don't really think that this movie deserves 8 Oscars, i don't know exactly the reason but that's what i think. So if you like this type of movies, you should watch it soon, because it's a really good one.
danilohon Slumdog Millionaire is a Britis drama film directed by Danny Boyle,written by Simon Beaufoy,and produced by Christian Colson. set and filmed in India,it is a loose adaption of the novel Q & A . It was released in 30 August 2008. The actors are: Dev Patel (Jamal) ,Freida Pinto (Latika) and Madhur Mittal (Salim). This film is the story of Jamal Malik,an 18 years old orphan who went to a game show were you can become a millionaire. Everyone thought he cheated one way or another and the police took him. He explained how he had so many unplesant memories from his childhood that helped him to find the answers. The ending is very unexpected. The non-linear construction that reaches backwards and forwards in time to bring its many narrative threads togheter into a coherent whole has all the excitement of a music video. I liked the movie but it wasn't as emotional as I expected. I still recommend it beacuse it made me keep my hopes high.
