Slum Dog Millionaire

I finally saw the movie on the weekend, Seems every one in India already has a ripped copy of it although it was only released recently,

Russel Peters quote of "Bollywood movies are great for people with no expectations" seems to apply here, It has all the typical cliches (Evil Gangsters maiming kids & putting them to work as beggars, Can't forget the Taj Mahal & stupid American Tourists, overcrowded trains, add a few songs by M.I.A in the sound track)& a story line that doesn't make sense either that or the Brother in the movie has a split personality.

It's an alright movie but doesn't deserve all the accolades & does nothing to help stereotypes.
