Two movies took America by storm: Slumdog Millionaire (2008) and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000).
They have a lot in common:

  1. Both come from a humongous rapidly developing country which evokes intense curiosity and mild fear

  2. Both won quite a few Oscars

  3. Both pretend to be at least somewhat high brow, i.e. "not just entertainment"

  4. Both enjoy very high (8+!) "IMDB User Ratings", probably because the "Users" feel flattered that they understand a "high brow" movie

  5. Both have idiotic plots, lousy choreography, boring dialogs, and more!

  6. In my view of a male chauvinist pig, they would have been at least somewhat redeemed had they have a pretty girl, but no, not a single pretty girl in either movie

  7. Neither is worth your time

Спасибо, что избавил нас от "Миллионера".
Рад стараться!
Привет Илане!
И, это - "взвейтесь кострами!"
