As Slumdog Millionaire weaves between the present and the past you are fully engaged in the character’s life experiences and how through them he is able to answer his questions correctly to win the grand prize. The movie moves with perfect momentum and with such intimacy you never feel you are watching a film but instead, you are experiencing it; the triumphs, the tragedy and the comedy that lives within the story.

Film Review: ‘Friday The 13th’ (2009)
Friday the 13th is an appalling addition to the horror genre.
Film Review: ‘Sunshine Cleaning’
If you are seeking a film that is heartfelt, touching, and wholly believable, Sunshine Cleaning is it. The characters are full of range and emotion, and meld together on screen with a simplistic ease. Sunshine Cleaning is a story about family, about overcoming ones past, finding your future and accepting who you are and the choices you have made. More importantly, it will make you feel something while bringing you laughter and possibly a few tears.
Film Review: ‘Race To Witch Mountain’
Race to Witch Mountain is slow to get started and loses even more steam as it moves along.
Film Review: ‘Defiance’
What could have been an epic story about fighting for one’s survival against oppression and evil is instead a melodramatic bore.
