Slumdog Millionaire Review

Slumdog Millionaire has easily become the most talked about movie of the year. At the Academy Awards it won eight of the ten awards it was nominated for, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Cinematography. It is winning the hearts of moviegoers across the country and all the prestige is rightfully due.

I went to see Slumdog Millionaire the weekend it arrived in theatres. It was a clear night but snow covered the roads so I had to kick my jeep into four-wheel drive. My roommate Shane accompanied me as we carefully reached our destination at the Showplace 12 in Muncie. It was the second day the movie was out so the theatre was pretty packed and the entry line was long.

We finally made it into the theatre and picked our seats in the fourth row from the back and dead center. We watched the previews and talked about which movies we need to go see when they come out. Finally, the picture we came to see pops up on the giant screen and our journey begins.

Slumdog Millionaire is a love story, an action flick, a thriller, and a little bit of a documentary all in one. It follows Malik, a former street child from an Indian slum, who has made it to the final question on an Indian version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire. The Movie began as Malik was being tortured and questioned due to an accusation of cheating. The movie jumps back and forth between the interrogation and Malik’s past. His experiences in life help him answer each question during the show. You find out the whole reason he goes on to the show is to use the “phone a friend” lifeline to call a lost love.

The movie was one of the best I have ever seen. It tells a beautiful story while displaying India with amazing realism. I highly recommend seeing the movie in theatres but if you miss your chance than it is a one hundred percent “buy” on DVD.
