Loved it, loved it, loved it.
Not just because I'm from Bombay (now Mumbai) but because it's a tight, slickly-edited modern day thriller + love story in a Bollywood guise via Lancashire and Hollywood.
It takes immense cinematic talent to not only keep the audience engaged but also on total edge when you know all along how it's gonna end. Danny Boyle pulls out all the stops for this movie which is Oliver Twist in all but name.
It would really help if you understood Hindi/Urdu which are known for their highly "creative" approach to swearing. Extraordinarily creative, Joyce-worthy creative. The subtitles lame out.
But the soundtrack kicks ass.
