I agree.

I'm not a firm critic but after all that hype I was expecting a LOT better.

4/10 for me.

Agree that it was massively overrated. Mainly by Guardian types who wanted to sound cool by pandering to the message of the film (whilst sipping Chateux Laffite '49)

It's OK, but not in a million years is it a classic.

Watched it on 4 plus one - gave up after an hour - was very disappointed considering all the hype when it came out.

Good film 7/10

was a bit disappointed first time i saw it. But have since seen it more than 10 times as i have used as end of term classroom film..
Now i think, as a 'fairy tale' (as thats all it is really) it really stands up as an excellent film, accessible to all, great cinematography, with decent performances and genuinely tense moments. Of course the 'slumdog' looks like he's never spent a day outside middleclass Harrow in his life, and quite how he learned English to such a level despite barely going to school is also a mystery - but ignoring that - a very good film.

However, a proper film about street kids in Bombay would be 'salaam Bombay!' which is a truly great film.

What exactly is the 'message' other than its a romantic fairytale? It was hardly groundbreaking or controversial when dealing with Indian poverty
