Maybe it's just me, but is there ever a time where you're watching a movie, and you're on the edge of your seat to see what happens next? I'm not talking about suspense movies like Silence of the Lambs or Porky's. You're just completely fascinated by what you're watching. That is Slumdog Millionaire.
A guy from the streets of Bombay, India gets on their version of Who Wants to be a Millionaire and knows all the answers because of his past life experiences. It uses flashbacks to show how he knows the answers to all the questions. Also, he's searching for the girl he's loved his entire life.
It's funny, sad, inspirational, dramatic, shocking, foreign, awesome and fantastic. Watch it.
5 out of 5 musketeers.

I totally agree. Laura and I added this to our Netflix queue and, based on the "very long wait" classification, didn't expect it to arrive for quite a while. However, we actually got it a few days after it came out.
We expected the movie to be good since it won so many awards but we were really surprised.
It has an awesome story and somehow depicts the overwhelming depression of India's lower class with optimism and inspiration.
