The Best Picture of the Year!

Rating: 10/10 (9 January 2009)

Slumdog Millionair is a definite lock for Best Picture and is the best film I saw all year, or even the last five. Brilliant directing and storytelling brings such a simple story to life. I thought that The Dark Knight would not be topped this year, I was wrong. I was very unimpressed with The Curious Case of BB compared to Slumdog.
On another note, Slumdog uses a no-name cast which shows how good of directing Danny Boyle does. He does not need a strong character actor in order to get the message across. The film keeps you interested from beginning to end and takes no short cuts or overdrawn pointless scenes. By the end of the film, you will shed tears of joy and reflect on one of film's greatest marvels.
