OMG! this movie is constantly getting great reviews... ARR choice 
of choosing to score the music for this movie amongst his busy schedule is a 
great decision.

Slumdog Millionaire 

Danny

Boyle has been one of the most creative and interesting directors of

the last ten years but has gotten very little recognition during that

time period. His films usually do moderately well at the box office and

then develop a bigger fan base when released on DVD. Some of his works

including Trainspotting and 28 Days Later are among the great genre

films in recent years. Sooner or later Boyle was going to have a

masterstroke and he now has it in Slumdog Millionaire.

Jamal

Malik (Dev Patel) is a kid from the slums of Mumbai who happened to

become a contestant on the Indian version of Who Wants to be a

Millionaire? On the show he answers every questions correctly leading

up to the final question just as the show runs out of time. As he

leaves the studio he is taken by the police on suspicion of cheating.

Jamal explains to the authorities how he knew the answers to all the

questions, describing his life story in the process.

Every

aspect of Slumdog Millionaire is excellent. The story is unique and

crosses multiple genres like drama, comedy, romance and crime allowing

for a wide range of emotions from the audience. There are no actors in

the cast that you will be familiar with but the performances are

exemplary, especially by the children that play a younger Jamal and his

brother. 

Personally

I have never seen any Bollywood films but the fact that Boyle was able

to go into India and get the cast that he did proves that there is a

lot of talent to be unveiled there. Perhaps this could lead to us

seeing a more diversified crop of actors in mainstream films going

forward and no Harold and Kumar is not what I am looking for. Anyway

that is a topic for another day.

Anthony

Dod Mantle's wonderfully crisp cinematography should be receiving

technical accolades later this year. He had previously worked on 28

Days Later and The Last King of Scotland. The soundtrack is

outstanding. A.R Rahman orchestrated the score and M.I.A (Paper Planes)

also contributes. Of course Boyle always has fast paced and intense

editing in his films and this one is no exception.

There

have been rumblings that Slumdog Millionaire will be this year's Little

Miss Sunshine or Juno. Interestingly enough all three movies are

distributed by Fox Searchlight which is also releasing The Wrestler

this year and is evidently a brilliantly run company both in terms of

development and promotion.

As

to whether or not it's this year's Little Miss Sunshine or Juno I both

agree and disagree. It will, or should be the film that gets nominated

for awards and that no one saw coming a few months ago. It will not do

as well at the box office as the other two movies because it lacks the

star power. However it is better than both Little Miss Sunshine and

Juno. 

If you ask me right now what the best film of 2008 is so far, I would say 
Slumdog Millionaire. Final answer.
