Yes, I watched this twice already and has already blogged about it (see my post here). But I just can’t get enough, I watched those only at home and with my 32″ TV.
Since I do have a chance to watch it on the big screen (thanks to Viva International Pictures & TV5), why would I miss that opportunity? It’s one of the GREATEST film of all time. I really love it and I’m asking all of you to catch it when it opens in Philippine cinemas on April 11, 2009. You’ll surely miss a lot if you don’t watch it. It isn’t Oscar’s Best Picture for nothing. 
At first, I mentioned in my previous blog entry that the movie revolved around Jamal’s joining the “Who wants to be a millionare” game show. Yes, it revolved there but actually, it all boils down to his love for Latika…
He was able to win 20M rupees and was able to answer all the questions because… all questions coincidentally do have relations with his life.. from the time that he was a kid till present.. I also love how the story has been presented in the movie… you won’t notice that the movie is 2 hours long, that’s how good it is..
After watching this the 3rd time, I realized that this movie is really about love… I believe Jamal (lead character) has chosen to live for love and it is his destiny… so touching (I was really trying not to cry coz noone’s really crying watching the movie hehehe)… but deep inside I cried coz I’m so touched with the movie… and the movie ended very well… It is a happy ending!
My Rating: 4.5 out of 5 Stars 
wow!!!same goes for me….5 star…and i love danny boyle films
Hey Roch! I’ve watched this over the weekend and I thought that it was a really great movie. I always have the penchant of not watching much hyped about movies because I would think that they were overrated. But this turned out differently. I would also look at it as a portrayal of Philippine (and possibly other nations) poverty wherein (almost) everyone hopes to score the jackpot on game shows: ie. Wowowee. I remember Latika saying “Who doesn’t watch this? It gives everyone hope.” or something to that effect 🙂
