I did not expected that it was great!!


I had knowledge about those political satires.. First was the famous Borat! that tackles political issues between the USA and Russia.. And here in the Philippines, the very best example of a political satire here is, actually I forgot the title.. But the protagonists and antagonists of the movie were famous political people here..

But this one right here in the left-side of this post, that kicked Benjamin Button's ass, stole the spotlight from the star-studded cast of Revolutionary Road (starring Academy Best-Actress Kate Winslet) and erased the hopes of a Best Picture-Best Supporting Actor award combo of The Dark Knight (the late Heath Ledger won the latter award, post-humously), is more that just a political satire, the once-thought underdog of the Academy Awards, critically acclaimed Slumdog Millionare, the only movie nominated for Best Picture in the Academy Awards that didn't show any signs of a Hollywood star, even in the production staff. This is a story of a young boy from India, who grew up in the slum areas of the country that won in a famed game-show.. Jamal, the main actor of the story witnessed how scarcity ruled over the lands of India, how the war between the Hindus and Muslims affected the lives of the people especially the little children, as the nonsense war killed many lives.. Jamal portrayed the while Hindu community of India..

I'll give a two-thumbs up for this movie, oh no, four-thumbs up including the thumbs in my feet.. The production was so good and story is kinda touching your heart.. Dont underestimate this guys.. Dont be fooled by the handsome looks of Brad Pitt or by your curiousity why that old man became a young boy.. Watch this..
