Slumdog Millionaire

Sorry bit late on this one...

2009 is looking very promising at the moment on the film front!

You either will love this or hate it.

Fortunately for me, I LOVED it.

There are some harsh realities in this film, but I cannot really see how this was a "feel-good" film. This is how it has been advertised, and I am not sure I agree with the statement. The first 45 minutes are quite shocking and if you have not been to India before, then this will provide you with a bit of a Culture Shock.

Nevertheless, a good, gripping story, with appropriate flashbacks, which are careful not to cause confusion. I cannot really fault it, and quite honestly, haven't seen a film like it before! Was pleasantly surprised!

That's it for today, more on the weekend hopefully!

Roll on 2009!
