Cuts straight to the heart
Hats, caps and wigs off. There’s reason to dance on the streets. Here’s a masterwork of technical bravura, adorned with inspired ensemble performances and directed with astonishing empathy. Above all, it has that emotional wallop to make even the stonyhearted cry and laugh out loud with its little big people.
Slumdog Milionaire: More Style Than Substance
Just what is it about this movie that is making audiences go ga-ga over it? Having said that let me add that Slumdog isn’t a bad film, it’s just that it’s not a great film.
Slumdog Millionaire makes Mumbai look like a sewer
There is a very thin line dividing slick from scum. "Slumdog Millionaire" doesn't stop to make those subtle distinctions. It moves at a frenetic pace creating a kind of sweaty energy that one sees in marathon runners in the last lap of their journey.
Slumdog Millionaire - No looking back!
Watch it any cost…. Even, if a ticket costs a million dollars!!! On the whole, 'Slumdog Millionaire' has various reasons to capture everyone's attention.

I was majorly under-whelmed. The point I am trying to make is that a film about real events need not end up real enough, or engaging enough. That is precisely what Slumdog Millionaire suffers from.
Slumdog Millionaire - Mediocre Masala
It’s hard not to draw comparisons between Slumdog Millionaire and its protagonist, Jamal Malik. Both got lucky. Both didn’t deserve it! It’s a film that’s’ predictable, its narrative linear, simplistic and full of cliches.
The Slumdog Millionaire magic
Rahman's rousing score, Beaufoy's effectively engineered script, Dod Mantle's humbling camerawork and Boyle's sheer mastery of the narrative form elevates this movie experience to a realm that's as close to magical as you can get in the cinemas!
Pure Masala plot
What we get is a celebration of life and the sheer spirit to survive and win, against all odds. Did I like it? Yes, very much so. But I would be lying if I said it blew me away, and even more so if I didn't admit that I was a tad underwhelmed- but you could blame it on my great expectations for this Dickensian tale of adversity, adventure and unswerving love.
Slumdog Millionaire -Jai Ho, Slumdog!
Everything has to fall in place – the script, screenplay, direction, acting, music, editing – in sync with each other to have a movie as frisky, stark, shocking and uplifting as ‘Slumdog Millionaire’. It doesn’t happen often. May be it’s the stuff of destiny.
