I thought this movie was good all the way through. I liked the main characters and dislike salim at times. I think that it should definitely win some awards.

I think I will remember that film for a while, unlike so many. Although we loved it, there are scenes that are a bit very hard to see for children under 10 I would think. I am saying that because (1) I took my children to see it and (2) because I only heared wonderful critics about it, which I approve of, but we, parents, should know that there are things that are quite hard for children to see. I loved the way the story was told, the various sides of life in India that were presented, and the way it ended, that showed that it was "just" a story. A WONDERFUL FILM!

5 Reasons to love Slumdog: -The Storyline: very original, inspiring, but also funny & also sad -The Music: AR Rahman is a genius. All the music fits in perfectly with it's scene -The Acting: It's very real and very well done -It makes you think: You cannot stop thinking about it when it ends -The way it was told: At first, the switching is confusing but after 5 minutes you get it and it's genius

This was an incredible movie and I tell everyone to go see it. BUT...why would you take children under 10 to this movie? It is rated R for a reason. I am glad I wasn't sitting next to young children in the theater, because it would have ruined the experience for me.
