A well deserved multi Academy award winner. I loved the way the film captured glimpses of India, and the character's lives, through the flashbacks. The storyline was very engaging, and the only negatives were the romantic plot line verging to mush at the end - but still done in a very likeable way.

Film took time to get into and it was too long, but other than the Bollywood characteristics (which I don't enjoy) it had some charm so I persevered till the end.

This movie is a classic fable set in modern times, tracing the lives of two refugee orphan boys as they struggle to survive and transcend their misfortune. Told with no fear of exposing the evil underbelly of society - as well as sensitivity to the poignant and brave side of human nature - this movie provides insight into a rapidly changing India while at the same time entertaining audiences. It will leave a lasting impression.

This movie is a fairy tale, but shows at the same time, the enormous odds that children face coming from these slums. This shows a true picture of the nature of developing countries.

AB#12

What was all the hype about? It was strangely disturbing story with some bizarre characters; really not very believable. I tuned out quite early on.
