I was hoping it might have been on at the Chapter in Cardiff but I had to get a torrent in the end.

I'll keep an eye out for it. I'm not too keen on the cinema but I'd love to see this again on a big screen.

Saw it at the Ritzy tonight as well. Bloody brilliant. Gripping, intense and well written.
Some hard parts though- not sure I agree with the promotional posters' depiction of it as a 'feel-good' movie. I could barely watch at times... the whole thing with the children and the orphanage place... Christ. Still fucking brilliant and unmissable though.

Is it out already then? The film hadn't finished yet and Ms. T&P was telling me 'we need to get us a copy of the soundtrack'...

Fantastic Film.
Jsut got back from seeing this. Blodoy fantastic. Completley Gripping and an emoational rollercoaster with great cinematography and an even better sound track!
It's on at the Acton View BTW for those in West London (closest tubes: Park Royal and Hanger Lane)

I said that to Mr Potter when we came out of the cinema this afternoon. Thought the film was fabulous though, best thing I've seen at the pictures for ages.
I didn't see the interview but my friend said she saw Danny Boyle interviewed by Mark Kermode, and Mark asked him about the discrepancy between the film and the way it was being marketed. She said he replied that the marketing was out of his hands, and also implied that he wasn't that happy about it.
I'm glad I hadn't seen the advertising before I saw the film. I would have been horribly unprepared for the orphanage scenes.

Exasperated, not angry.
Absolutely cracking film. Great story, acting, cinematography, soundtrack, pretty much everything. The kids were just bloody superb.
The marketing is utterly stupid and bloody annoying. But I can't say more without spoiling it for those who aint seen it. So...

By calling it the 'feelgood hit of the year' it blatantly gives away the ending. After that first half, the only possible way for it to be 'feelgood' was to have just the ending it did. I thought he might blow the last question (which seemed a bit easy to me, tho I guess the Three Musketeers wasn't that big in India), seeing as he'd become a millionaire in his heart anyway, but it was always likely he'd get the girl and the cash.

Saw this yesterday and have to say, it's the best film i've seen in years. It's very rare that i don't lose interest half way through a film, but that was just excellent the entire way through. I'd go and see it again tomorow, given half the chance.

The teen and I are hoping to go and see this this week. Very much looking forward to it.
I've lost track of the teen's age, but be aware that there are some quite disturbing and violent scenes - it's not really the feel-good film of the advertisements.

To not like this film you'd have to be some kind of shrivelled-up, heartless bag of misery. The mixture of over-the-top romantic storyline and realism in the slums works much better than you'd think, and there's no attempt to either patronise or glamorise the desperately poor (and I've seen both in films before).
Another modern classic from Danny Boyle I'd say.

She's 16. I think she'll be fine. I'm a bit worried about me now though...
Is it upsetting?

I found some of it upsetting, yes.
Surprisingly this was showing in Swansea on Friday. We went to see and absolutely loved it!
