SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE DVD

2 GBP

I only watched the first twenty minutes of this travesty of a film and then gave up. How it got five stars from seven different critics and won eight Academy Awards I'll never know. It is badly written and poorly directed with awful music and enthusiastic but very amateur acting. The sleeve claims that it mixes "stunning scenery with breathtaking action, comedy and romance". I obviously didn't get as far as the stunning scenery and neither did the action take my breath away. And as for the comedy - non existent. I didn't laugh once. I didn't get as far as the romance either.
Apparently this disc includes six "Special Features" including "Deleted Scenes". It would be much better if they had deleted the whole lot! The film runs for 115 minutes, though why anyone would want to sit through 115 minutes of this turgid rubbish I can't imagine. The sleeve states it is "Fit for viewing by persons aged 15 or more". It isn't! It's not fit for viewing by any age.
And now for the good points: the disc would make a great coaster and the case could be re-used for a much more worthwhile film. If anyone out there doesn't believe my review of this film, buy it and see for yourself. It is in "new" condition. PayPal accepted. Can send by.
