Review of Slumdog Millionaire (2008) by Clayton R — 02 May 2012

I do question some of the direction in this film, in particular how Dev Patel seems rather wooden. Still, the visual quality is eye-catching and effective all in one, and the structure is intriguing as to how the lead characters history gets him his advanced knowledge in the game show.

Yet most of all, it's the dark, dangerous and unnerving themes expressed all over each act that make this film what it is.
