Honestly, I'm surprised it didn't win an Oscar
NotATrollISwear20 May 2020
Motu Patlu: King of Kings is without a doubt the best film of 2016. I'm shocked over the fact that The Martian won an Oscar but not this. The Martian did not deserve the Oscar it got, Motu Patlu did.

Anyway this movie has done so much more than any other of its time. The animation is stunningly detailed and every shot is filled with joy and colour. In this movie Motu and Patlu free a tiger, which is more than what PETA has ever done. The music is orgasmic and I got chills up and down my spine when in the beginning scene a remixed version of the icon theme song was played. There is so much in this movie made with so little.

10/10 a MUST watch.

This is my new favourite anime
benjaminweber22 January 2019
Many times has the question been asked, who is the most powerful, Goku or Superman? The answer is neither, it is the anime hero Motu, a short fat man who is bloated like a tire! A man who can defeat jungle lions in hand to paw combat! If Popeye gains power from spinach. then Motu is unstoppable after a plate of samosas! But fear not, for it is not just action in this breath-taking spectacle! There is an eerily beautiful musical number, and several times during the run-time the drama becomes so intense that grown men have no choice but to break down and weep. 10/10 best anime of all time!

I honestly think this is the worst movie I have ever seen. Extremely low quality and just dumb.

The greatest anime of all time (spoilers)

Warning: Spoilers
Before watching Motu Patlu: King of Kings, I had cancer, African trypanosomiasis, Cryptococcal meningitis, Ebola, aids, Cancrum Oris, and Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva. But then thanks to the dankest part of the internet, I discovered Motu Patlu. Ever since watching Motu Patlu, all of my diseases have been cured.

I must say, this is a better anime than Evangelion, Cory in the house, Shrek, The World of Strawberry Shortcake, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Bill Nye the Science Guy, and more. Now, let's get started with the review.

Even though it looks like it is child friendly, it is not and please remain your kids from watching this unless they want to live in an insane asylum for the rest of their life. This movie is not for the faint of heart

Warning, this review contains extreme spoilers.

It all starts in a death camp that is disguised as a circus. A lion named Guddu is the leader of the camp, and the poor people in the camp are being used to work as slaves. One day, Guddu's insanity snaps and he brutally murders everyone the the camp. Guddu then escapes, and then breaks into Furfuri Nagariya, Motu and Patlu's hometown. Every one in Guddu's path is killed, except for Motu and Patlu. In order to save his life, Motu then eats a bunch of samosas and locks Guddu in a cage. In order to save everyone, Motu, Patlu, Dr. Jhatka, and Ghrasitaram, travel to a jungle so Guddu can be free there.

Meanwhile in the jungle, a vicious leader of a cult invades the jungle. The leader locks the baby animals in cages, and pushes them down a cliff. Guddu wishes he could be the king of the jungle, and kills the King, and the cult leader. I must warn you, this scene is very gory. All of the animals in the jungle are affected by the despair disease, and are used to work as slaves for Guddu. Guddu then brutally kills them all. Warning: this scene is filled with gore, blood, mutilation, and extreme violence.

Dr. Jhatka and Ghrasitaram are then affected with the despair disease. Dr Jhatka then commits suicide and Ghrasitaram is decapitated by Guddu. Motu and Patlu are the only survivors, so they work together to stop Guddu. Motu ends up killing Guddu by ripping the skin off Guddu's body. Patlu gets jealous because he never gets to do anything. In a fit of rage, sadness, and anger, Patlu strangles Motu to death. Patlu then explores the blood covered jungle, looking for a cliff to jump off of. He then comes across a cliff taller as my life goals, and jumps off it, bringing Motu's dead body with him. And that's how the movie ends. This is by far the saddest thing I have ever watched, and I will never forget this beloved anime.

Life Changing

Warning: Spoilers
Motu Patlu - King Of Kings is the best thing iv'e ever bared witness too in my life. My own son was born not long ago and even that fails to surpass my absolute enthrallment to this masterful piece of cinema and dare i say, History. Before Motu Patlu - King Of Kings, i felt no reason to live, it was a dark and lonely void from which i could not escape, but when i saw those wonderfully animated fellas eating samosas and defeating dastardly cult leaders i knew, i had found a friend, and i felt the pudgy yet soft hands of Motu pull me from the abyss. my only wish after watching this ART for the 40,000th time is that i could feel Motu and Patlu's soft, luscious lips upon my own. i want them to embrace me and take me up to Swarga Loka and be with me until the next life and forever more. so to conclude this love addled review for the best film to ever grace humanity i will finish with a poem i have created. I Love Motu(and Patlu) and i hope that he loves me. i want to rap my arms around him and feel him inside me.
