After hearing many great reviews from my friends, I went to see this movie with my mom. This score really makes you see how intense a struggle that a slumdog from Mumbai can go through. The cinematography gives an impressive view of the magnificence of India (really makes you want to visit such a beautiful country). The combination of the unbelievable love story struggle to the amazing musical composition gave me chills throughout the movie. I just love it when a movie gives me such a positive and great feeling inside! Well deserved Oscar Nomination for Best Picture!
This picture puts into queston whether the American Dream is what you really want or is the comfortable aspect of it make you stray away from exploring new avenues. The emotional volatility of both Frank and April creates a quiet yet slight mumur from viewers. Michael Shannon's performance is key in creating more tension between Kate and Leo and provide some (dark) comical relief. Ultimately, this score really makes you think about how important it is to "feel things". The ending was surprising and made me stay seated for an extended period of time and really think about what had just happened. I truly recommend this movie as it is a testament to extraordinary acting within such a simple yet riveting story line.
