Danny Boyle bounces back with this smashing crowd-pleaser that's easily one of the years best films. He brings similar energy that he brought to "Millions" with another story about two brothers but this time in India. Boyle, writer Simon Beaufoy and cinematographer Anthony Dod Mantle capture the essence of India without comprising artistic vision or authenticity along with a vibrant score from Bollywood master composer A. R. Rahman. The film is upbeat but also profound. The story has enough real drama like "Salaam Bombay" but Boyle chooses to focus on the survival and love story instead of dwelling on the tragedies.
