Slumdog Millionaire
I just banked 2 free tickets to see this movie on November 12th because of an online promotion where you can RSVP to a screening in your area.
Here is the link to get your free tickets: http://rsvp.foxsearchlight.com/RSVPS...hp?MoviesId=62 It's a new movie from Danny Boyle that is getting rave reviews. Plot Synopsis: The story of how impoverished Indian teen Jamal Malik became a contestant on the Hindi version of "Who Wants to be A Millionaire?" -- an endeavor made without prize money in mind, rather, an effort to prove his love for his friend Latika, who is an ardent fan of the show. Trailer: ![]() |

I'd give anything Danny Boyle makes a chance.
Looks good. |

Slumdog Millionaire
Have you guys not seen this yet? GO SEE IT!
Seriously, if I wasn't such a huge fan of Chris Nolan's TDK, this would easily be the number one movie of the year for me, hands down. Beautiful cinematography, amazing acting, a well-told, cohesive and powerful story; this movie has a lot to give to viewers. Go see it!

Wow. First of all, I am downloading the screener now. Second, I had no idea it looked this dumb. Honestly, a movie about some Indian boy on Millionaire? I thought this was the movie of Jeff Goldblum acting like a dog.

It is not dumb at all. It isn't what you're expecting it to be I'm pretty sure.

I'll give it a shot. Couldn't be worse than Van Damme acting in a fucking drama.

Living in India I have never seen such a world! I have never cried in a movie... I am touched. A R Rahman has done a good job with the music. I am depressed as hell

It was pretty good but I didn't like it nearly as much as everyone else seems to love it. Don't wanna be a "stick in the mud" but a lot of it was mad cliché and ridiculous. But it was good yeah I dunno.
The concept was great.

LOL the dancing during the credits is completely out of left field.
Good movie. Will people get upset if I do not rate it? |

I did not understand the dancing at all. Is that some sort of tradition in Indian films?

The fact that I only remembered the dancing sequence just now is proof that my mind has been pretending that it doesn't exist.
Ahh, subconscious. Your power is astounding. That shit was unnecessary. |

I thought the story worked perfectly but the movie looked like shit. I hated the direction, just constant cuts that lasted like 3 seconds each.

Quote:
The quick cuts helped to move along what is already a very sweeping story. It was my comprehension that the flashbacks were cut quickly to help illuminate the way that memory works. It's not a flowing, constant stream; recalling memory comes in bits and pieces, quick and sharp - especially the memory of the main character. They also seemed to slow the cut rate during the more emotional moments of the film, like the love sequences, the final reunion of the brothers in the construction site, the interrogation scenes and his time in the hot seat. Still, to each their own. |

It looks like it is filmed in the type of film people use to win best oscar nominations

Slumdog Millionaire
My apologies if there is a topic already, but I just saw this movie and it was awesome.
From IMDB: "A Mumbai teen who grew up in the slums, becomes a contestant on the Indian version of "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" He is arrested under suspicion of cheating, and while being interrogated, events from his life history are shown which explain why he knows the answers." Good fucking movie. Very action packed and kept me glued the whole time. I definitely recommend it. Anyone see it? ![]() |
