Slumdog Millionaire Review

Slumdog Millionaire is amazing in every way you look at it.

This film, from acclaimed director Danny Boyle, follows the story of a man's journey to recover his lost true love, and find his purpose in life. The man's name is Jamal, and he was born and raised in India. When he gets on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?, he somehow answers every question so far correct. When they run out of time, he is suspected of cheating, and the police take him in for questioning until the next night's show of his continuing final question that would make him win if answered right. He reveals how he knew every answer, and within each explanation, is a story that is a major importance in his life. From the beginning of his life, abandoned by a massacre, Jamal befriends his brother and a girl named Latika, whom he falls in love with. When almost harmed deeply and loosing his contact with her, he makes it his mission to trek to find her.

The most memorable scene of the entire movie to me was probably when the phone in answered on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? The film is based on a true story, so it adds some historical background, and even major events that have taken place, showing off its unique style of beauty and awe, as it travels from place to place using adventure and of course, romance. So, it's something alot of people won't enjoy - The beginning of the movie is entirely in subtitles, not that it's a bad thing. It won the Oscar for Best Picture, and not to mention that I thought Dev Patel, who played Jamal, gave out a great performance in the film.

The movie is so great, and it has some ability to grab you by its opening scene and take control of your mind and thoughts. It's not like most movies, because its location changes from place to place when they travel somewhere. The movie's ending is quite unique, and it is memorable. Not to mention an important thing. Slumdog Millionaire is visually stunning! It seems to still be entertaining either way you look at it.
