Yeah...it definitely relies on the fate/destiny theme.

I just thought it was well put together...this should get an editing award (no doubt) and superb acting by the real people (no acting experience) Boyle used in the film...smart choice. Also, the soundtrack was ill...was like that Madlib India instrumental album.

I'm surprised they got the ok to center this flick around the "Who Wants To Be a Millionaire" game show with all the politics, violence, and corruption elements involved.

Also, the ending credits/dance sequence was fun and different for this type of film.

Seen this with director Boyle in the audience and he took time for discussion and I got a photo with him. He is crazy cool, down to earth, and was happy to just kick it with everyone.
