slumdog millionaire --BEST EVER!!!



i have to say this is the best movie i've seen since City of Gods (Cidade de Deus).


Slumdog Millionaire is British-Indian drama film directed by Danny Boyle. It is based in the novel Q and A by Vikas Swarup.

It tells the story of a young man from the slums of Mumbai who appears on a game show and exceeds people's expectations, arousing the suspicions of the game show host and of law enforcement officials. Jamal Malik (Dev Patel) begins to offer an explanation of how he knew the answers which is conveyed as a series of flashbacks documenting the particulars of his childhood.

The story and the characters amazed me. i loved everything to bits! especially Dev Patel who played the teenage Jamal Malik and the young version of him played by Ayush Makesh Khedekar. The kid is AMAZING!!! Plus the teenage girl who played Latika, Freida Pinto is totally pretty!

Another thing that i love about the film is its music by A. R. Rahman. The remixed song Paper Planes by M.I.A. is what i enjoyed the most.

The movie as we all have heard received various awards and nominations.

Watch this movie! You cannot not love this... :)

PS:
i'm loving Dev Patel (he also plays the role Anwar Kharral in the teen drama series Skins).


...and the kid who played young Jamal ...
... he is simply adorable! another reason why this movie rocks is because of this kid...
