Millionaire.

Slumdog Millionaire
Who wants to be a millionaire?

It was just probably a year or two ago that this reality show was a hit in the US, and later on spread to the rest of the world! Just went to watch this new hit movie, Slumdog Millionaire with my parents. Before i went to watch the movie, i was watching the Academy Awards on TV, and it's shouldn't be surprising to see this movie basically sweeping majority of the awards. Something that should be a definite MUST watch.

A short brief on the show for those who have yet watch, the story talks about two young boy living in the slums with their mother. Also shows the poor living & education condition over there as well. The story continues after the mother was killed and how they escaped the killing, along with a girl who managed to keep up with them. They were soon 'rescued' from an organization that uses children, especially disabling them to generate more income. It was until the head of the organization decided to disable the younger brother, when the elder brother made an escape along with the younger brother.

The movie also show a several scenes of the reality hit, Who wants to be a millionaire?! The main actor was brought to the police station for "cheating" in this reality show, as he was just an eighteen year old without any former education.

When he got the 1 million rupees question correct, i thought the show ended so fast until i realised that the show is until 20 million rupees. I supposed majority of the people who watch it will agree with me in this statement!

Overall it was proven he got all the answers correct by himself, due to the many experiences he had to endure in his life living in the slums. Even at one point when the host gave him an answer for the question that he didn't know of at the break, he didn't believe him and decided to take the risk against the answer provided by the host. Although it was also down to luck, but it was really smart of him to trust no one in that moment! All the transition in the show was great, including the songs played!

The show definitely deserved all awards won in the Academy Awards!! I would give it a 9/10 rating for the show! A MUST WATCH!!
