5.0 out of 5 stars Arguably the best soundtrack of 2008, December 30, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Slumdog Millionaire (Audio CD)
I don't normally review CDs because it's so rare for an entire album to be worth buying, especially a soundtrack. Far too often you get a CD with songs that weren't even in the movie while skipping some of the best songs that were actually used.

The "Slumdog Millionaire" soundtrack, with its mix of mostly upbeat instrumentals and vocals, is that rare exception. If you don't want to move to this music then check your pulse.

"O...Saya" and "Jai Ho," the former shown at the beginning of the movie, the latter at the end while the credits ran along with the Bollywood homage, are perfect party songs you'll want to listen to again and again. The ominous sound of "Riots" will remind you of the murder of the brothers' mother. "Dreams on Fire" and "Latika's Theme" are both a little sad and romantic. "Millionaire" is just inspiring and will remind you of the movie's climax. And you get not just one, but two versions of "Paper Planes."

I didn't think this was possible, but the "Slumdog" soundtrack surpasses even "Bend It Like Beckham." If you liked that soundtrack, you definitely want to check this one out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome soundtrack, December 15, 2008
By Sid Ananthakrishnan (Mountain View, CA) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Slumdog Millionaire - Music From The Motion Picture (MP3 Download)
If you saw the movie then you know how integral the soundtrack was to the movie. Needless to say the soundtrack is fantastic and just listening to the music will automatically have you relive the movie!

AR Rahman - the music composer is a genius and he's done a spectacular job as usual. A couple of tracks are from other sources - namely Papers Planes and Aaj ki Raat. The rest of the tracks are original productions for the movie.

5.0 out of 5 stars One in a Million ......, December 23, 2008
This review is from: Slumdog Millionaire (Audio CD)
I am a big A R Rahman fan and typically lap up anything and everything composed by this man. So when I first heard about this movie (and the fact that 2 of my favorites Danny B and ARR - have collaborated on this one) - I was all but ears for this OST. Saw the promos and then the movie and then ever since its been a wait to get this album. So when it came out on ITunes a month back, I bought it in the first hour and now when it released on a CD, again, i bought it on the first day.

The whole world is raving about this album and so is it worth it ?

Oh Yes ..absolutely a big emphatic YES.

Get it for the thunderous O Saya or the Riots
or Get it for the Grammy Nominated Paper Planes by MIA
or Get it for mellifluous and soothing Latika's theme or the wonderfully penned Dreams on Fire
or Get it for Liquid Dance - a wonderful fusion of Indian classical and western rhythms
or Get it for Gangsta Blues or Millionaire
or Get it for the joy that is 'Jai Ho'
or get it because its a Golden Globe nominated score

or simply get it because you Love music ....
or just because the name of the composer ...is A R Rahman

Just go ..get it ..

-A

4.0 out of 5 stars A few good songs...
A few good songs esp. the remixes of MIA. A.R. Rehman has done better on other movies but these are good and accessible to a broader audience.

5.0 out of 5 stars Musketeers in Mumbai.....
Loved the movie, love the DVD, love the soundtrack. Slumdog is so refreshing, Rahman & M.I.A. set the tone for Musketeers to negotiate survival in Mumbai, hurrah! Read more
