tonight, my family and i embarked on a cinematic journey to see slumdog millionaire, a film that i now consider to be the best movie i've ever seen. i wish i could properly express the greatness that is this film, but, since i can't, i'm going to let the folks at rottentomatoes do it for me.
"In a year of DOA movies, this one is unquestionably alive."
"It's a masterpiece, and that's my final answer."
"Pure movie magic -- pulsing with life, oozing authenticity and so drunk on romance that it simply has to end with an exuberant musical number."
"Like all good fairy tales, this outsize celebration of perseverance and moral triumph contains within it a deeper idea -- in this case, the relative nature of what we think we know, and what's worth knowing at all."
"Once Slumdog launches into its final act, you'll get that pang that comes with the last chapter of a great book you wish you weren't about to finish."
