Honestly, this movie is just amazing. Really. I loved everything. The pacing is so gripping, you can’t look away, and the message… oh my god, the message hits. It shows that your life experiences can matter so much more than what you learn in school. Sometimes, real life lessons beat any theory you’re taught.
The soundtrack is insane. I didn’t even know it was M.I.A. singing, and I love her, so I was like, “Why didn’t anyone tell me?!”
And the love story… Jamal and Latika. Please, a guy like Jamal in real life? Priority on my Christmas list. Seriously, please.
This film grabs your heart, makes you think, makes you smile, makes you dream. Absolutely unmissable.

I remember watching this in high school and being enthralled by the unique way this story is told.

I don’t know if it accurately captured the poverty in India but it takes you on this ride where you are introduced to these characters that either feed off the poverty or are desperately trying to get by in it.

It’s a very unforgettable fairy tale, it would never work the real world. It’s a fantasy put together and enacted superbly.

incredible. such a journey. honestly on paper the concept is incredibly corny (like think about it, explain the concept to someone) but the movie doesnt feel corny at all.

its funny, heartfelt, was a great coming of age story, has incredible music, does some fun artistic framerate manipulation, and overall was incredibly entertaining. you are seriously rooting for this guy at evern turn, and even salim and latika are great characters too.

and you absolutely GOTTA love the dance number at the end.

one of my favorites ive seen in a long time!!
