“Millions,” theater, April 15 2005 (2004). What a change from Trainspotting! Maybe a bit too sweet for some, but I needed sweet when I saw it. This little religious fantasy follows the journey of two brothers who ‘find’ about L250,000 14 days before the pound converts to the Euro over Christmas. What do they do? One, the elder, wants to spend, launder, and invest. The younger, who talks to saints, and yes, they talk back, wants to help the poor and find out the status of his dead mom. Is she really Saint Maureen? It’s a good film that makes plenty of use of director Danny Boyle’s signature love of special effects. It’s critical, analytical, and very funny in parts. Devotion to doing good is also a key component of the film. It’s good for kids and adults alike, although our 10-year old daughter and her friend (they sat on their own away from us for the first time!) thought it scary. Worth watching, but the DVD will be fine!
