Absolutely Amazing

Rating: 9/10 (2 February 2009)

This is one of those films that you do not come across very often. It was absolutely amazing. This film is one of the most well written, well directed films I have ever seen. The non-linear narrative was executed perfectly and the plot was astonishing. Every single actor in this film, especially the child actors, played their roles perfectly and the casting was so spot on as it was hard to imagine these characters being anybody else. The character relationship between Jamal and Latika was brilliant and the development of the characters throughout the movie kept you on the edge of the seat wanting to find out what is going to happen to them next etc. The soundtrack (music) in this film was mind blowing, every song selected, every sound effect fitted so perfectly within the film, some moments gave me shivers and goose bumps and the music was so gripping. This movie by far deserves to win the Oscar for best picture and i will not be surprised if it takes out all 10 Oscars it has been nominated for.
A definite MUST SEE 9/10
