Slumdog Garbage
by Graham Davies

Like many cinemagoers, I hope to be entertained and have a good time. If you feel entertained by extreme violence, multiple murders, torture, child abuse, child prostitution and mutilation, together with liberal doses of human excrement…..then Slumdog Millionaire is the film for you.

I felt sick after the first 5 minutes and only stayed because I was reviewing the film for a radio programme.

I admit that there is a predictably nice romantic ending, but it is not worth the effort of sitting through 2 hours which celebrated human degradation.

I am staggered by Slumdog’s success, because it is the worst sort of Feel Bad film.

Save your money and stay at home. Or go and see something less violent and generally despicable. Like Friday the 13th.
