Pretty good! For most people, it'll probably rate a 6 to a 9.

Rating: Null/10 (18 February 2009)

I liked this movie, but I wasn't as overwhelmed with it as others seem be. It's a good story filled with a number of emotional-tugs typical of Indian storytelling. It held my interest through to the end, but I didn't really think about the film afterward.
If you're thinking about seeing this movie - you'll be glad to know two things: It's filmed in English (so no subtitles) ... and it's not a drawn-out Bollywood singing/dancing musical. You'll get an interesting story with great acting - and I'm sure you'll rate it no lower than a "6".
The movie is basically the background story of a poor Indian fellow who ends up as a promising contestant on the Indian version of "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?". As he moves from one correct answer to the next, we see flashbacks of the rough-life struggles he had to endure while growing up that led him to the answer.
It's a cool way to tell a story. If you don't know what living in poverty is like in India, this'll be a somber and touching eye-opener. While it's well acted and written, it wasn't especially engrossing (to me at least). However, as I stated above, I think most people would rate it no lower than a 6 so it's a pretty good bet if you're looking for a good drama to see.
