Slumdog Millionaire, directed by Danny Boyle (Trainspotting) and adapted from a novel by Vikas Swarup, is a contemporary fairy tale about a lowly tea server at a Mumbai call center who gets a shot at the high life on the regional version of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire." The story then jumps back through time to his violent, indigent childhood in the ghetto. The Times's Manohla Dargis calls it a "sensory blowout...a gaudy, gorgeous rush of color, sound and motion... that doesn’t travel through the lower depths, it giddily bounces from one horror to the next...Because Mr. Boyle leans toward the sanguine, this proves to be one of the most upbeat stories about living in hell imaginable."

Saw Quantum of Solace last night. SOOOOOOOO GOOD!
good or bad, make up your own decision. casino royale cemented daniel craig's place as the only bond. forget connery- have you seen those laughable films recently? he can't punch his way out of a paper bag. those scripts were written by a bunch of idiots- c'mon- goldfinger...how corny was that!!!
austin powers showed us just how stupid most of the old bond movies were. daniel craig rocks.
If you've ever read any of Fleming's books, or Markham's Colonel Sun (Amis) then you know Craig is the best Bond ever. Lazenby was pretty good, but Craig is the best.
Wasn't there already an environmental badguy? Walken was sort of, right? And the stupid World is not Enough with media tycoons... oy!
Read Swarup's "Q&A" the novel on which Slumdog Millionaire is based.
Ditto #1
New bond sucks. All dark and serious. Daniel Craig is the new Timothy Dalton.
