Fred McGriff Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 well i could definitely see how it could go over like gangbusters in the US. it's "different" (brown people speaking english) yet it still has the type of drama everyone here craves.

encey Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 I thought it was really fun to watch, like a music video. I think 'crowd-pleaser' really sums it up. I wished I knew more about the historical and cultural context, because I didn't have much of an idea of what events exactly I was seeing depicted, what in the history he was referencing. To me, that girl is not just hot but beautiful, in the sense that you almost feel she deserves you do something reverent like say a little prayer before you rub one out to her.

Guest melotronic Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 fucking hated this film, seriously, danny boyle has done so much better and now this is the film he gets the acclaim for? bullshit. it's entirely unoriginal and hackneyed. also the ending blew Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/40795-slumdog-millionaire/page/2/#findComment-1002959 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mirezzi Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Squalor of India + HD photography + MIA in the soundtrack does not = good. Quite simply, you can't get more ridiculous or loltastic than the ending, either. Nobody here found this to be utterly patronizing? It doesn't help that the film crew treated the locals like shit and didn't even fucking pay them. This film was Born Into Brothels meets Generic Hollywood Formula.

Guest Glass Plate Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Mirezzi, if they wanted to show the slums of India, and made it a total depressing super indie film, than they'd only be talking to the people who've already seen it. It makes a lot of sense really to put in bullshit like MIA to appeal to the mass audience, it's worth it to get that chance to also show the poverty. Not to mention it's following it's own geographical tradition of bollywood.

Guest Mirezzi Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 I have a tendency to start new threads about movies once they're out on DVD and I assume most people find that annoying. Anyhow, Slumdog far exceeded my expectations that it would be terrible.

Guest Mirezzi Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Atop said: so you hated it like I did? Probably more. I really just thought it was a fucking mess...an incredibly disingenuous one at that. It must be said, however, that the script was the worst part of the movie. As much as I blame Boyle for its shortcomings, it's not like I'd want any filmmaker to take on this script.

Atop Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 never have I like Boyle, have seen Trainspotting one and a half times... and almost everything at an average of a half watching..... when given the choice I have turned most of his films off towards the middle....
