Movie Trailer Monday

Friday I finally saw Slumdog Millionaire and suggest to everyone that if you want to see a superbly executed film from all angles go see this immediately. The writing and acting are spectacularly blended into Danny Boyle's creative directing approach. His minimal use of subtitles and the gritty portrayal of poverty stricken India is brilliant. I could go on and on but I won't

I will say that I correctly called Paul Blart: Mall Cop taking home top spot again this week just edging out Underworld: Rise of the Lycans. I am going to go out on a limb and say that the new Liam Neeson movie Taken will be number one next weekend, I say this mainly because they are marketing the shit out of that movie and hey the trailer is pretty sweet. It's a slow weekend with the Superbowl and all and look for movies with Oscar buzz to rise a little higher this week such as Slumdog and Milk (with Sean Penn's SAG award win) and Doubt (Maryl Streep SAG win).
