Slumdog Millionaire review by Jeff Vice
With "Slumdog Millionaire," Irish director Danny Boyle attempts to recapture the whimsical magic and genuine sweetness of his last really good movie, the 2004 gem "Millions."
But this more gimmicky, supposedly comic fable has some real nastiness and poor-taste elements to it.
That's particularly unfortunate, because at the heart of all that is a rags-to-riches story line and credible romantic subplot. And it does have an everyman hero to which most of us can relate.
He's Jamal Malik, played as a teenager by Dev Patel. (Ayush Mahesh Khedekar and Tanay Hemant Chheda play the younger character.) Jamal and his brother, Salim (Madhur Mittal), have grown up on the streets of Mumbai and have learned to survive by using their wits —
especially after their mother (Sanchita Coudhury) is killed during racial rioting.
Now Jamal finds himself as a contestant on the Indian version of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire." To the surprise of the show's host (Anil Kapoor), the street-smart Jamal is doing quite well. In fact, believing that the contestant is cheating, he has a local police inspector (Irfan Khan) rough up the teen.
However, through flashback sequences we show the experiences that gave Jamal considerable knowledge — and how he came to meet Latika
(Freida Pinto), the childhood sweetheart that he fears is lost to him. Boyle and screenwriter Simon Beaufoy ("The Full Monty") probably needed some help to adapt Vikas Swarup's novel "Q&A." So, Boyle also enlisted the help of a co-director, Loveleen Tandan, whose style is even more frenetic than his.
And again, there are some unnecessary and unappealing elements — a
toilet gag is particularly nauseating.
Luckily, the filmmakers do have this cast to bail them out. Patel (BBC's "Skins") is likable as Jamal, and Kapoor and Khan are terrific as always.
