Movie To Watch : Slumdog Millionaire
So I am officially obsessed with everything Slumdog related. It was very easy for me since:
a) i'm very gullable into believing stories like this could happen in real life..giving me hope
b) i'm a huge bollywood fan
c) the soundtrack is supposed to amazing http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B001LX0JK6/internetmoviedat/ (A. R. Rahman is the equivalant of Hans Zimmer in my book, plus there's one Sonu Nigam song)
d) the critics are all raving about it...
"The Best Audience Picture Of 2008"
"A Hollywood-style romantic melodrama that delivers major satisfactions in an ultra-modern way..." Los Angeles Times
"4 Out of 4 Stars"
"Unforgettable... Pricelessly original... One in a million." USA Today
"Boyle Has the Stuff to Work Miracles"
"What I feel for this movie isn't just admiration, it's mad love." Rolling Stone
"A Phenomenon... Miraculous."
"A personal triumph for Danny Boyle... It could land a best picture Oscar."Chicago Sun-Times
"A Soaring, Crowd-Pleasing Fantasy"
"There's never been anything like this... Groundbreaking... Damned near earth-shaking." WSG.com
"A Movie to Celebrate"
"A sharp, teeming, dark, very romantic film... A buoyant hymn to life." TIME
"Slumderful! Worth Its Weight In Gold"
"FOUR stars simply aren't enough... may be the most entertaining movie I've ever labeled a masterpiece in these pages." NY Post
"Buoyant & Life-Affirming"
"A rare feel-good movie that actually makes you feel good. It will send you out of the theater feeling like a winner." Voice

AUSTRALIA
It doesn't get any better than this. Romance. War. A Huge Budget. Amaazing Clothes. and that accent. Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman star in Baz Lahrman epic movie that geniusly en-corporates comedy with love and WWII. (in just 2:45..so worth it).Catherine Martin , the director's Oscar winning costume director wife was the perfect choice. The clothes were MARVELOUS. Nicole's character starts off very prim and uptight but due to some twists in the plot she loses some of that properness but still remains very classy and elegant. The luggage she's carrying in the first picture is actually Prada, since Prada started creating luggage in the 30's/40's. (they were recreated for the movie). The shoes she wore in the last picture are actually Ferragomo's, the picture does nothing for the dress(ergo: you have to see this movie!!) Hugh Jackman has a couple of those breathtaking scenes, which are a major bonus. He is the ultimate mans man. You could almost hear the men sitting next to us in the cinema thinking "How can I look like that when I'm 40, when I don't even look like that now?" Movie magic people, magic.
