Variety reviews Danny Boyle’s Slumdog Millionaire:

Driven by fantastic energy and a torrent of vivid images of India old and new, Slumdog Millionaire is a blast. Danny Boyle’s film uses the dilemma of a poor teenager suspected of cheating on the local version of “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire” to tell a story of social mobility that is positively Dickensian in its attention to detail and the extremes of poverty and wealth within a culture.

Have I mentioned lately that I wish I was heading to Toronto this week?
