Rating: 3/10 (3 August 2009)

with all the hype surrounding this movie,i thought it would be better than it was.i was expecting a masterpiece,and for me,this movie fell short.sure,it's a decent movie,with a sympathetic character to root for and the acting is certainly good.but the story never really involved me.for whatever reason.i didn' feel inspired or uplifted at all.when the movie ended,it didn't really stick with me in any way,and i didn't find anything profound about it.by the way,it's not based on a true story.for some reason,thought it was.but in the extras,it's revealed to be made up.anyway.clearly i'm in the minority here.don't get me wrong though,i didn't hate the movie.in fact i enjoyed it mildly.when all is said and done,Slumdog Millionaire is a 6/10
