Jumbo Movie Review

Another animation (a good one though) goes into the credit list of the Indian cinema. The movie Jumbo is about a fat, blue colored, young elephant named Jaiveer, who loves playing with frogs and is in his own dream world where there are loads of fun and fun around. Everything is happy around him but one thing disturbs Jumbo the most, that he is without a father. It was rumored that his father was a coward and had ran away from the elephant community. This is not well digested by Jumbo who decides to venture out in search of his father.

Cast: Akshay Kumar (The Voice of Jumbo), Lara Dutta, Dimple Kapadia, Rajpal Yadav, Gulshan Grover (Voices of other animated characters)
Director: Kompin Kemgumnird
Banner: Percept Picture Company
Music Director: Ram Sampat
Rating: 3/5

Jaiveer sets on a journey to the human camp close to the jungle. Unluckily he fails in his quest. On his way back home, he meets a pink, pretty eyed elephant Sonia (now every hero however fat and round deserves to have a heroine right?). Sonia, who by the way despises being called Pinky accompanies Jumbo back home only to find his mother gone. So the friendly Sonia takes the crestfallen Jumbo to her home – a village full of good humans.

Jaiveer sets his journey to the human camp, close to the jungle. Unfortunately he fails in his motive. On his way back, he meets a pink, pretty girl elephant, Sonia and he falls for her. This was quite obvious because our bollywood films are incomplete without heroines, you see (and we are proud of it).

So, Jumbo and Sonia come back and find that his mother is gone. So Sonia, who also starts developing feelings for Jumbo takes him to her home – a village full of good humans.

Jumbo gets weaker by the time he reaches the village, where humans and animals are working together for beasts and warlords. “Jumbo” sees a cow chained and Jumbo also learns the value of humans who captured him and he is trained in the camp. Jumbo becomes stronger than anyone under the training of a mahout.

The local warlord comes regularly to collect Taxes from the villagers, who get greedy every year to face opposition from the villagers and in a rebel between the villagers and the warlords, the beasts and warlords get defeated.

The king calls for the elephant Jumbo for his army and he finds him breaking chains to meet his mother and the king recognizes him. The king calms Jumbo to hire him as his war elephant and in this quest Jumbo meets a gigantic war elephant with a Fiery Eye, which was responsible for the death of Jumbo’s father, and Jumbo gets a chance to relieve themselves in the battle for the glory of the Kingdom, and take revenge.

The movie is well directed. The romantic song which features Jumbo and Sonia developing feelings for each other is not much appreciated. The animation is good, especially the fight sequence. The movie has it all, fun, friends, romance, fight, revenge. The director in short, has shown a typical bollywood movie in his animated film, Jumbo.
