It's actually a good movie for true animation lover. This movie is for all ages. All characters were awesome. Superbly written and directed. It has many morals for humans. The Music album of this movie was also great. I personally Like the Urdu version of this movie. Because it has so many comedy scenes with no vulgur jokes and scenes. Once in a life must watch. I specially like the voice of Jan Rambo, Hina Dilpazeer, Mani, Ismail Tara and Irfan Khoosat. The pivotal point of this movie was it's star cast. All the actors have worked so sincerely. Hope Pakistan make more movies like Donkey King......
References to 'dirty dreams', 'Sheela ki Jawani', and a character 'Raftaar' based on the the 1980's PTV serial 'Andhera Ujala' (voiced by Irfan Khoosat himself) indicate that this movie is targeted at audiences over the age of 40, who for some reason will want to watch an animated movie. The screenwriter has turned a near-bearable storyline and mediocre character modeling into an unbearable movie with a poor script, unendurable dialogues and agonizing references to ancient 80's culture.
Oh My Gawd! Who was expecting a superb, International standard movie. When i say International Standard, i am talking about movies like Ice age and Monsters and Angry Bird. It has that class. The makers of this movie just nailed it. After the great success of Commander Safeguard which is also by Mr. Jindani, the movie is a great national hit. I haven't seen this much hype ever created for a movie in Pakistan. It was like back when Khuda kay liay was gonna come and everyone was excited but this time the movie was great.
Talk about any angle, the animation, the characters, the cast and most importantly the script was too good. The sarcasm was too damn good. It was kind of a movie that made u laugh on another level. Really impressed by the work. It was not only a funny movie but one with a great message and the makers proved their point when they said its for all ages, because it was. I have seen the cinema full even on like 8th day of the release. Its not a spoiler i guess but the dancing cow was the most hilarious part.
After the great impression of Jan Rambo on our generation, he did it again on this younger generation but this time as Jan Mangu, the washing machine. Brrrrrrrr
A must watch movie. It contains entertainment for all ages. Even if it targets new government, it hit bulls eye on every matter. It serves humour coupled with a insighful critique!
"A movie for all ages". Great fun. All the characters are awesome. No matter if you are a child or adult, you will enjoy the film
Giving 8 out of 10 just because of animation. It should be improved. The animation is same like we are watching safeguard commander in 2004. It's not looking a 2018 animated film.
