Slumdog Millionaire - Oscars - great indian movie

this should get the Oscar , Slumdog Millionaire is geniusly simple but very powerful in the message. You don't want to live in India, all is dirty, dangers everywhere, very bad people looking for small helpless children. You can only rely on yourself to find a way to survive. Life is tough in the slums, bad things happen, parents get killed, children get mutilated, only the smartest and strongest can survive. Two brothers start living on their own after their mother gets murdered in a revolt. They meet Latika, another girl without parents, and try to find ways to live. They fall prey to a child molester, who wants to use them as beggers, but first they have to learn how to sing, and steal, and cheat.
The two brothers escape eventually but lose Latika.

Slumdog Millionaire is a story of survival, love and joy of life, but very tough and gritty. One of the brothers win millions in the popular show 'who wants to be a millionaire'. The questions he answers are really episodes from his life. The struggle to win Latika back from the kingpin is worth seeing.

A lesson of life, in all, a very strong movie, something you won't expect from a indian movie, but of course we should not forget, India created a lot of masterpieces with many talented actors. Anyone still know Raj Kapoor? His son Anil Kapoor plays in this one.
Update: WOW, the movie Slumdog Millionaire just received like 5 or 6 Oscars, the best film academy award is what counts. this is on #35 place on Imdb with 8,7/10.

The Unit - cool Delta Force action tv series

I must say, the first seasons were average, Dennis Haysbert was the star, the president from the other good tv series - 24. the episodes were OK, standard situations like covert operations, kidnappings, stealth attacks, rescue missions, all this you can get in The Unit.

5 Delta Force specially trained guys form a very secret special ops unit and perform very top secret missions. they look and act normal on the outside, they have wifes and kids, they have normal problems, but they will kill you on the spot, if that is their mission.

The last 2 seasons were really good, there is no dragging storyline from season 1 that goes on and on, the show The Unit relies only on the episodes storylines, and they are packed with action. The guys go in mission, kill a lot of people, sometimes brutally, and then go home to the wifes, really loving and stuff. There is also smart humour going on, the guys know how to create interesting situations, cool disguises, dangerous roles, you name it. it's not only delta force action, is a lot more.

Robert Patrick, the one that played the T-1000 in Terminator 2, is also an important part of the Unit, playing the ruthless delta force colonel, commanding the unit.

The show is cool and fun to watch, don't miss it.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Brad Bitt and Cate Blanchet playing in 'The curious case of Benjamin Button'. This is a movie you will never forget. The story will keep you awake at night, the narration and the images are perfect.

Although it's easy to see after one hour where the film is getting at and how it will end, actually seeing the last 15 minutes of Benjamin Button it will still blow your mind. The director David Fincher knows exactly what he's doing , he uses Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett to the full extent of their capabilities.
Brad Pitt plays his best game (see Jesse James, Seven years in Tibet, legends of the fall), and Cate Blanchet is different than the one in Lord of the rings.

go see Benjamin Button, you will never regret it!
