Slumdog Millionaire - Wogma Readers Reviews

Slumdog Millionaire

wogma rating: Buy the DVD already (?)
quick review: Thinking about the movie on my way back to home I was caught up in confusion if it is a movie about dreams, hope, sore relations, the reality of life of a slumdog or is it about the luck of a random boy.

Thanks Raj.

Ram Kumar:

Since you are reviewing a movie which hasn't been released, I am assuming that you support piracy? Thanks!

after a long boozing new year party hang over i start scrolling through imdb to know about happenings in film industry.................it was then when i first came across this title. going through reviews i decided to watch it..................and i did so. as the movie began i was happy to realize that i am starting my new year with such a nice pic. opening scene was good and as usual rahman music was fantastic. evry thing was going on fine.....and my expectations also started to gear up.............but after 30 mins i realized d big mistake i have done. dis movie forced me to believe that this world is sooo SMALL............ i seldom get a chance to catch up my friends in mumbai.......and in this movie one of our musketeer met his old old friend and girl & friend so easily while just passing through a subway. and then in next few mins evry thing happens so fast that if director would have maintain that pace then the whole movie would have bind up in next 20 or so mins...... and how can i forget the scene in which jamal called his brother for first time after such a long break ............what a good hit and trial case.............our mathematicians would have never created a topic of probability if they have watched this movie.....................hahahahahaha i think if a director really want to portray a slum life of mumbai on 70 mm screen then they should atleast watch salaam bombay so that they should clearly understand what a slum life of mumbai is. after watchin movies like crimson gold, bicycle thief, taste of cherry and also d most recent dasvidaniya......................i just don't feel to suggest anybody to watch this movie. this movie again strengthen my belief that majority of indians are only fond of MASALA movie and nothing else.......and dany has proved it by making a movie which will be liked by all of us.

Tarun Chandel:

Oh no, no way. Ram, I attended a preview of Slumdog in London and it is released here on 9th Jan. Slumdog Millionaire will be released in India with a different name, Slumdog Crorepati.

Manish Bhatt:

God damn, you really think so? Realistic, hah!

Yes I happened to see this movie.. and i am not going to review this movie and praise it from top to bottom cos its just all above it.. The movie is fantabulous( if thats a word) It starts off amazingly well and ends with a perfect bollywood ending although it being made by a foreign director DANNY BOYLE. The movie basically gives you a message that there are certain things that you learn in your life which are really unknown to you. It says that each day that u live is itself a learning process for you and nothing is wasted. True underdog.. or whatever u call it.. rags to riches story. Depicted mumbai slums and mumbai as bollywood movie has ever done it. Although many ppl have raised objections abt showing mumbai in a negative light but thats how it is right. People have seen the malls the sky rises and the marine drives.. nobody has shown the largest slum in asia properly. The performances are just mind blowing. A special mention abt the kid JAMAL in the movie he gives a heartwarming performance. Anil Kapoor plays a nice host with smirks and sarcasm involved referring JAMAL as chaiwala again and again. Irfan Khan had a miniscule role but excelled there too. the main leads DEV PATEL AND FREIDA PINTO .. are the actual stars of the movie. and yea a special mention to the soundtrack... it deserves all the awards and da accolades.. A.R Rahman at it again.. give an ear to RINGA RING , MILLIONAIRE , JAI HO, O SAYA supercool numbers!! In the end the movie is a must must watch and i hope for OSCARS .. its all JAI HO !!!!!!!.. RATINGS - 4.5/5

online hindi radio:

Even though SlumDog Baged 2 Oscars its not Rahman's Best one. Chaiya Chaiya is 100 times better than JaiHo
