Slumdog Millionaire Movie (2)

Reaction to a Review of the Film
Grade Review: A-
"It’s “Slumdog Millionaire,” it’s set amid some of India’s poorest locations, and yet here’s the irony — it’s one of last year’s richest movies" (Smith). 
It is funny how a movie is set among a location distributed of a poverty environment, but the movie became one of the biggest movie shown on screen. I agree that the movie should be graded an A- because it was overall, an interesting and one that has you on your toes as you are engaged to the storyline. 


"From Simon Beaufoy’s script, “Slumdog Millionaire” digs into India’s gritty depths, where it juxtaposes squalor, exploitation and corruption with humanity’s fight to overcome it" (Smith).
I agree that the movie "Slumdog Millionaire" corrupts humanity as described of how Jamal has to fight for the truth to gain what we deserved, which is the million dollar prize. Jamal was tortured disrespectfully as he was electrocuted and drowned under water because he didn't want to tell his identity.


"When it hits, those who haven’t experienced Bollywood and are unaware of how great it can be will find themselves transported when Boyle offers a brazen tip of his hat" (Smith).
As this movie was set in Bollywood, India, the country seems very culturally displayed in "Slumdog Millionaire". But in the movie, they display India as a poor country, where Jamal is a "slumdog" which is being a poor person from a poverty area.
