I only watched it coz i'd heard on grapevine it was awesome.if i'd had read a write up i wouldn't have bothered.but good god i'm glad i did. only other film i can think of that i wouldn't have watched but did for the same reasons is shawshank.slumdog is every bit as good.
No brilliant acting but a great story and some good cinematography. Loved the bit at the end with the credits, summed up the film by making me smile and really enjoy it
