THAT was entertainment with the art

Rating: 10/10 (10 January 2009)

It's been a long time since someone from the movie industry created this kind of movie. Such beautiful eye-candy, a marvelous collage of events that transpired and occurred with seamless movement. Slumdog millionaire delivers the entertainment that no one had seen for a long time in the mainstream movie industry, the artful entertainment.
The critics were right, this film employs the beauty of every possible thing that may be done with a camera. The richness of colors gave the horrible slums of India a life that projects the joy of living for those who live life as simple citizens living below the poverty line. A story that pulls you deeply with every passing moment until the climactic ending where every event, every moment of the extraordinary story, culminates to the ultimate joy and success that the film deserves. The beauty of art merged with a flawless narrative and light-hearted humor creates, at last, a film that deserves more than any award for being a joyful depiction of life and a positive force to its viewers. Quite unlike last year's award sweepers, No Country For Old Men, and There will be Blood, and together with 2006's The Departed that delivered a powerful story and cinematic photography but nonetheless dark and depressing in nature. Slumdog Millionaire is a thrilling and joy- provoking success and a non-cheesy romantic story to boot.
Watch and experience the beauty of film-making and story-telling at it's finest.
