Slumdog Millionaire

[AbbeySider]

Its a sensation.
I (downloaded and) watched it last night and again tonight.
One of the best films I have seen.

Watched it tonight. Thought it was ok to good. If we didn't know the WWTBAM signifiers it would be pretty average. If that's our film of the year it was been a mediocre year. Watchable but not deadly.

Literally just watched it and was about to post in the movie recommendations thread. Haven't seen a film as good in a very long time. Superb from start to finish great story, great acting, great everything and something a bit different for a change. If anyone hasn't seen it yet go as soon as you can.

I thought it was boring.

[ONeill]

Have to reluctantly agree with pints. Very start and stop, stereotypical image of India (played out), and too sentimental towards the end. Entertaining (like ET) but lacked quality or innovation.

Decent visuals, decent soundtrack, decent acting, happy ending = wins awards.

Are these legal sites?

I watch many streamed on www.watch-movies.net. Slumdog has a good stream.

I dont like watching streams

Download the actual movies/games/music from www.mininova.com
use uTorrent to download the files.

The more people "seeding" the file you download the faster the download....

I pmed these detailed instructions to someone else during the week:
You'll need Bit Torrent - download from here
http://www.bittorrent.com/  - It'll download the films.

Use these sites to find the films you want to download
http://www.torrentz.com/search - searches all sites but I regularly use http://www.mininova.org/cat/4 or http://thepiratebay.org/.

When you search for the film, always download the one with the most seeders/seeds.
Example
http://www.mininova.org/search/dark+knight/seeds - You'll see the top result has over 10,000 seeds - more seeds means the quicker the download.  Check out the comments on the quality of the stuff too.

To watch you'll need a codec, which does something with the files.
I think the top on here http://www.divxmovies.com/software/ is the one I have, if you dont have it your film will have no sound.  It comes with a "media classic player" too I think and I find it better that WMP.

I'm still not sure if that codec is the right one though.
