Be uplifted by Slumdog Millionaire

Believe the hype about Slumdog Millionaire, directed by Danny Boyle and based on the book Q&A by Vikas Swarup, Slumdog Millionaire totally deserves all the praise and awards it has been receiving. I really can't fault this movie at all its beautifully shot, interestingly told, funny, heart wrenching and intriguing add to this a killer sound track and you have a movie that will have you on the edge of your seat throughout.

Slumdog Millionaire tells the story about Jamal a young man who sees his mother killed in front of him when he is just a boy. Orphaned and homeless he and his older brother Salim learn how to survive and grow up on the streets of Mumbai by wheeling and dealing, catching stowaway lifts on the tops of trains and petty crime.

Essentially a love story Slumdog Millionaire portrays the lengths that one man will go to find the girl that he loves and is destined to be with. Even going to lengths as far as appearing on the Indian version of Who Wants' to be a Millionaire? where miraculously he knows the answers to all the questions, and where each question and answer reveals a little more about his past and background.

See Slumdog Millionaire and be uplifted this is one movie that should not be missed out on.
