This film was horrible! This has got to be the most overrated film of all time. Does not diserve its Oscar wins. Talk about injustice.

Slumdog Millionaire is a powerful story about true love, and its struggles. The film is absolutely beautiful, and entertaining. And if you haven't seen it be sure not to miss it. Parents Section: Violence: The violence in the film is not graphic, and is kept at a PG-13 level, although some of the violence involves children which makes it slightly more disturbing. The film starts with the main character being beaten, nearly drowned to death, and electrocuted by police officers. The violence is much milder then it sounds. A scene takes place where a riot against, Muslims is being held. This scene includes; burnings, beatings, and murder. The scene lasts for about 2 minutes, and is quickly edited making it "again" much milder then it sounds. There is also a scene where a man blinds a boy with hot oil, using a spoon to drop it into his eyes. As he pours the hot oil into his eyes, it is blurred. Making it once again, milder then it sounds. Language: There are some cuss words in the film, but not what you would expect from an R rated movie. The words used are "S--t", "Hell", "D-mn", "Cr-p", "P---y", and two non-sexual uses of "F--ing" The words are only said through some parts of the film, and is not used at a constant rate. Sex: A main character, in a female role is sold into sex slavery, though it is only implied. As well other sexual scenes are only implied and not shown. A very young boy's buttocks are seen in a non sexual way. The strongest scene in the film when pertaining about sex would be when two young boys enter a brothel. And see a quick glimpse of a man and a woman kissing, although they are both clothed at this point and no nudity is visible. Drinking/Drugs: Many drinking, and even up to the point where some children are seen drinking hard liquor. Messages and Role Models: There are consequences to the bad things that characters do in the film. As well as messages about doing whatever it may take to make your dreams come true.

I LOVE THE MOVIE. THIS WAS AMAZING. IT'S EDUCATIONAL AND ENTERTAINING.

A very sad film full of violence and child abuse, though five stars with no arguments about it. Pretty disturbing, too.

A very good movie that depending on the kid, could be appropriate for a mature 13 year old or inappropriate even for a 16 or 17 year old. Even though there is a lot of violence and sex in the movie, it isn't really a "hard R" movie. Much of the violence and sex is implied and/or takes place offscreen, so younger viewers might not fully understand what is going on, but it is still disturbing to see the things that happen in real life India. The language wasn't as bad as I expected for an R, but a lot of the swearing is by little children. Overall, a recommended movie--original but not always believable storyline, awesome soundtrack and characters, one of the most "well-balanced" films I've seen. It's pretty hard to make a film set in a world of horrific poverty and cruelty that makes us Americans aware of how fortunate we are to live here, while avoiding being heavy or depressing and even including some funny moments, but Slumdog Millionaire pulls it off.

its a good movie just not astonishing. there's some violent material but not much. its worth a view or two.

nice film with a warming message. some scenes are a little gory but overall a good film!:)

It is very mature in content and I say it should be aimed 18 plus and up.

Amazing movie saw it when I was young.
