Slumdog Millionaire: This is a sorta adventure drama movie. The gist of the plot is that a guy goes on a indian "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" and he does so good that they arrest him and basically for the most of the movie it recaps on how he knows the answers to the questions. The memories and present issues blend very seamlessly. This movie is so fricken creative with their use of colors and lighting. After watching this movie it felt as if all the questions in the universe were answered. Seriously, very memorable story and makes you think about how important friends and family are. The setting itself was gritty as heck, in a good way. It captures the poverty and population in India incredibly well, well to me it was well since I never personally visited there. It did look like the Philippines though. It was sort of depressing at some points to watch due to the extreme poverty that was shown. The music was awesome which was kinda pointed out during the oscars and the characters are super memorable, even the host of the show was memorable even though he was a jerk. LOLOLOL. It was very cool on how they got three of the same character like a child of the character, an older child, and then the present being of the character. It felt like you actually watched the characters grow up. That is how much detail they went into this movie. I swear, this movie has the greatest post-movie song. I actually wished I knew the lyrics so I can sing a long and maybe even copy the dance! Anyways it's completely fresh, especially if you look at the other movies that are out which arn't as original as this. Original plot = good movie.
a 5/5
