Jajantaram Mamantaram

The low rating this movie has got says it hasn't been seen for what it is. Try seeing it as: 1. A children's film (a dwindling genre); 2. An Indianised fairy tale (a dead genre), and 3. A lovely musical.

It is made by well-meaning people with hearts in the right place. It's underlying message on freedom and human rights has to be perceived and understood. The choreographed dances and songs are top-notch. The dialogues, especially for Jaffrey are intelligently written. And the actor aces this role which is a perfect fit for his personality and talents.

I dare say this will become a cult film in decades to come. Wish there were some young (children) reviewers here to evaluate it.

The CGI in this movie was ahead of its time. The music was unlike anything found in a kid's movie. Anyone with an ear for good indian and erstern fusion music will love the songs. Despite having lot of moments which will not be digested easily by adults this is a very artistically made film. I am not understanding why the rating is so low.

Because it is from India, it makes up for the really bad cgi horrible rip off of Gulliver's travels and lots of roars. Not worth the price I paid. It was a rip off. Even the kids wont enjoy this one. I bought it in China for a dollar. I want my dollar back. The only benefit is being able to mock it mystery science theater 3000 style. I didn't think it was possible to find a movie worse than cabin boy, but this is it. It is two hours of my life that I want back... But then again, if I were drunk this might actually be funny. It does have it's random rock video moments. The mermaid is just ridiculous. You could blind someone with that beard! The plot from power rangers would be considered advanced compared to this.

I watched it 1st time when i was very young i loved it watching again again as just to watch it...but after growing up i watch this movie coz it shows how kindness give a lot of pain initially but at the end its only you who Kept the world EVERGREEN... No doubt that time technology was not that good but the production is still quite attractive....

I have loved this movie since I was a kid I'm now 22 and rewatched and it's still just as good today as it was in 2007 when I first watched it. Great kids movie 10/10 would recommend. I love the music I even burned a cd as a child to listen in the car. Being a child listening to Bollywood music in the middle of Kentucky I definitely got ALOT of weird looks and a lot of judgments but I never cared. This movie made me genuinely happy and I'm so happy I got to grow up with this film! Can't wait to show this movie to my children one day! Jack black copied this movie in the movie gulivers travels !!
