Khan kluay

I enjoyed this film while seeing on TV i noticed that all desings are similar like in a thai ar elephants i caughted it on its real name 2006 released (Khan Kluay). but pribhi love jumbo.

This is Old 2006 Thai Movie dubbed in Hindi.

Akshay Kumar's Jumbo where the superstar has not just lent his voice for the central character of an elephant but also shot for an exclusive music video - 'Everything Is Gonna Be Alright'. While Percept Picture Company has proudly flashed their association with Akshay Kumar for the film and there have been (reported) talks about him being paid Rs. 9 crores to come behind the mike, the production house has chosen to keep the film's origin as a closely held secret.

Well, the secret which has been unveiled now throws quite some surprise as it is revealed that the animation film Jumbo is neither an Indian product nor has it been made in collaboration with an International animation house. Instead, Percept Picture Company has claimed the rights of a Thai film that goes by the name of Khan Kluay.

Khan Kluay, which was released in 2006, is a Thai computer-animated feature film and is about a baby elephant named Khan Kluay who wanders away from his mother and eventually becomes the war elephant (for whom Akshay Kumar has given the voice-over).

The film has been directed by Kompin Kemgumnird, an animator who has worked on the Disney features such as Atlantis: The Lost Empire & Tarzan and also Blue Sky Studios' Ice Age. The film was in the making for three years and cost 150 million baht (about $3.9 million USD). When released in 2006, the film was the highest grossing Thai film in 2006 with an approximate box-office receipt of 91 million baht. The film has already been released on DVD in the United States with its title as The Blue Elephant. The movie has won numerous awards ever since its release and now looks at making an impression at Indian theaters with Akshay Kumar endorsing its case.

This movie is very disappointing. The cover is aimed at little kids, you would be forgiven for thinking it would all cute, warm and fuzzy.

Definitely NOT! It is full of death war and violence! Please research this further before allowing your little girls watch this one.

The suggestions of "if you liked this you'll like care bears" is also misleading. If you liked this movie you are more likely a nine to 12 year old boy into armies and battles.

The movie glorifies war and dying for your country. I cannot say enough how disappointed I was and how misleading the cover and review on the cover is.

I was prepared to not watch this movie with my 4 year old son. It looks really lame on the cover. I was half watching, half reading until I saw the bandits. I closed my book and watched in awe as a beautiful Chinese fable unfolded on the screen. The elephants and humans don't speak to each other but they try to understand each other and everyone learns several real life lessons: Yes fighting is bad and we shouldn't do it, but sometimes you must defend your country and your family....your freedom.

The blue elephant's mother tells him that fighting is bad but then when he is in the middle of a war he fights for what is important to him. This is a wonderful movie to use as a teaching tool for children who have family members in the service, to teach young children that they should not hit but that they shouldn't take a beating also....."is it worth it to get into a fist fight over a toddler toy at preschool - NO, but if someone is hurting you then you can defend yourself." It also works as a defense against adults - if a child understand bullying and tyranny they are more likely to fight against it.

a wonderful movie, especially if you use it as a learning tool.

"The blue elephant." as it was introduced to me, is a movie telling the story of a little elephant who is searching for his father, while learning life lessons and growing up.

Yea.. That's basically it.. It's your classical generic idea but a little modified but still.. I don't hate this! The animation is kind of meh (i understand it was produced on 2006 but cmon) the characters are generic, and the movie is very predictable.

It does have it's pros, like the life lesson hitting right, the film Is overall "fun" (at least i dint got bored watching it). The character development is kind of meh for the mc,and the soundtrack is kind of nice and catchy!

The cons? Oh boy, the writing is predictable, the characters are generic and very plain (except for the mc as previously mentioned), at some point in the movie, the writing gets so poor that it even contradicts itself, the voice acting is primitive and some gags are only for comic relief and not funny.

Overall? I don't really recommend this movie, it's target audience is for kids, like.. Really little kids, but if you got some free time or have kids (so they can watch with you),not a must watch but.. it's a meh ride.
