Danny Boyle does it again

Danny Boyle (28 Days Later, Trainspotting) after making a few duds, hits another one out of the park with a story (and a story-within-the-story) about love and faith despite impossible odds. It is a story about the best and the worst of the human spirit.
Be prepared for violent scenes: people treating others like cockroaches (slumdogs) because of their poverty and faith (people killed with canes and molatov cocktails because they're muslim, not hindu). I don't understand why this site labels this movie a comedy. One other word of warning - if you've never been to the 3rd world, the reality of the ghetto is harsh.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
