Rating (1-10, 10 being highest): 7
Quick Rating: (skip, watch, watch when no other choice): Watch it
Story Line: A call center guy grown up in an Indian slum won big at the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire show in India.
What's good: I think the cinematography stands out in this movie. The movie intertwines the tv show questions with the life in the slums as Jamal (Dev Patel). Freida Pinto as Jamal's love, Latika, is lovely.
What's bad: The storyline is good, but I think the climax does not get to touch people as much.
Bottom line: It is a good movie, oscar quality, maybe not one of the best, but enjoyable.
