Slumdog Millionaire

If just the idea of India scares you, then Slumdog Millionaire will totally freak you out. If the idea of India is exciting and romantic and dream-inducing to you, then Slumdog Millionaire will absolutely seduce you. Actually, this film will probably do a little of both for everyone who sees it. The movie gives you the opportunity to live vicariously through the children of the slums of Mumbai, seeing all that is horrible and all that is beautiful about this country of contradictions. No matter how you feel about India, if you feel anything about it at all, go see Slumdog Millionaire. It's a stunning gem of a movie with a giant heart, bursting at the seams, to match.
