Even before the Oscars, Slumdog Millionaire was the most talked about movie in 08-09. It's been in magazines, newspapers, and television channels; the astounding success this movie has had world -wide is incredible. At first glance at the commercials, the movie seems strange and not interesting. But after viewing it, the movie just changes the perspective you first had of it and you end up liking it so much. The critics had it right and that's why it won so many awards. It seems everyone came out of the movie theater dancing and having nothing but good remarks on the film. The fact that it's not an American movie and it became such a hit at the box office was amazing. The film had a different style for the fims most americans are use to seeing. It's about a boy who grows up with a girl friend, falls in love with her, and are then seperated. The boy goes out on a search to find his true love by going on Who wants to be a millionaire in India. Danny Boyle, the director of this film, is a genius. To come up with such an interesting story plot and film it the way he did. For those who haven't seen it, don't waste time and go rent it. i don't always agree with what I see or hear in the media, but this time, I felt the exact same way they did. The best film of 2008 goes to Slumdog Millionaire.
