Reviews


90
Variety - Todd McCarthy
Driven by fantastic energy and a torrent of vivid images of India old and new, Slumdog Millionaire is a blast.
90
Village Voice - Unnamed
An almost ridiculously ebullient Bollywood-meets-Hollywood concoction--and one of the rare "feel-good" movies that actually makes you feel good, as opposed to merely jerked around.
88
ReelViews - James Berardinelli
The result is magical and life affirming, and will enrapture those who are not scared away by the mention of "subtitles."
88
Rolling Stone - Peter Travers
Brimming with humor and heartbreak, Slumdog Millionaire meets at the border of art and commerce and lets one flow into the other as if that were the natural order of things.
80
Film Threat - Unnamed
Absolutely perfect family entertainment for anyone over the age of ten. It is a celebration of not just the usual triumph of the human spirit, but a celebration of the human experience.
