Undoubtedly the best movie of 2008
16 January 2009
Slumdog Millionaire is a story of a guy named Jamal Malik who is on a show called "Who wants to be Millionaire" hosted by Prem Kumar. It revolves around the show and the life of Jamal.

The story is based on a novel "Q & A" by Vikas Swarup and Screenplay by Simon Beaufoy. The story is very original. The movie is shot in-and- around the streets in mumbai and other places in India.

Dev Patel is awesome, simply brilliant. His expressions are so natural, you tend to feel and think like him. This combined with awesome screenplay and direction keeps the audience glued to their seats. I highly recommend this movie. I was seen this movie like 3 times now and every time I have the same excitement and interest in it.

The movie contains some foul language and some violence so PG is recommended. ( See IMDb Parental advice for this movie for detail )

Big disappointment from Akshay Kumar
16 January 2009
I am a great fan of Akshay Kumar. I booked the tickets for the 1st paid premier show for this movie. But I was seriously disappointed.

Comedy scenes wont make you laugh, by the time action scenes come u wont be interested. The movie doesn't excite you much and doesn't do anything to keep the audience glued to their seats. Their is no suspense, Deepika Padukone doesn't help either. Spoils the excitement as and when she appears on the screen. Their was so much fuss about the action scenes involving her, but those scenes has already been shown in all the trailers. The movie is very predictable. Very stupid at times.

I will recommend this movie only if u don't have to pay for it and you have a lot of spare time.

They are already planing a sequel. God bless the producers.
