saw slumdog millionaire today

[vshah]

Directing was awesome, acting was fresh, and the soundtrack is pretty good too...listening to it now. I hope it gets some more mainstream exposure before the year is out.

about the soundtrack, does it sound like other typical indian music?

"Bollywood musical number during the closing credits"

Funny, Howard Stern was saying how much he liked that movie too.

Might have to check it out.

aside from that though, its not at all your typical indian movie soundtrack (mostly because its not a bollywood movie).

They've been slobbin that movie's knob for a couple months on NPR now, I may have to check it out.

 

[Inspector Jihad]

kewl, will check it out.

I just saw it this weekend..... and just plain WOW. Unbelievably good movie, I thoroughly enjoyed it... to the extent where I plan to see it again this week.

I was excited to see it, but was disappointed after seeing it this weekend. It was okay, entertaining. Many parts dragged on, and the whole thing about connecting his knowledge of the answers to his life story didn't really work that well. Too contrived.

Awesome movie.. just saw it tonight and was pleasantly surprised..

 

[alfa147x]

great movie!

 

[SandEagle]

on dvd? may have to rent it

 

[Rage187]

already in my queue

 

[zerocool84]

Meh, doesn't interest me. Seems one of those sappy movies. Even if it is good.

 

[Inspector Jihad]

i saw it and i liked it...growing up in bombay made it more interesting to me atleast.

and in the middle of a gun fight

ok.. i'll break down, and watch slumdog instead of reading the wiki

 

[ScottFern]

damn straight its good, chaiwalla!

 

[JEDI]

so i saw the movie. loved it.

and i got the final answer wrong. i picked the name of the star of the book, and not the one in the title.

dude, there are NO nude pics of Frieda Pinto.

she's a star in India. Any flesh = her career is over.

besides, the teenager that played her was hotter :Q
