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.
