"Danny Boyle’s new crowd-pleasing film Slumdog Millionaire was originally intended to be shot entirely in English, but apparently due to the preferences of a casting director, about a third of the movie is in Hindi. While this fraction may not be enough to call it a foreign-language film, it could have been enough to turn off subtitle-fearing audiences were the movie not so otherwise accessible due to its feel-good, “Hollywood-style” story involving star-crossed romance, destiny and an ultimate “love conquers all” message.

"this surpasses all those emotional emotional films that come out every so often. this is the story of a woman who works in a central station in Brazil, who meets a young boy that will change her life forever aswell as she will change his.this is truelly a great piece of work. anybody that really admires great pieces of film they should definitely see this film. Fernada Montenegro and Vinicius de Oliveira create such great chemestry rarely seen on film. this could be easily Walter Salles, Jr.'s best film. in an unforgettable expirience, Central Station will stay with you for as long as you can remember, it is that good.
