The title of the movie Motu Patlu King of Kings is taken from the kids cartoon show Motu Patlu, which is on air since the year 2008 on Tamil channel. It has now been converted into a movie story and the makers have made it more unique by animating the movie. Besides adding a tagline to the movie as well namely, “Yaaron Ki Yaari…. Action Safari”.
This is a story of 2 friends Motu & Patlu hailing from Furfuri Nagar. Their 1st enconter is with a Circus lion, who wants to leave the Circus. So Motu & Patlu offer to take him to the forest. Once they reach the forest the lion runs away on his own. Motu & Patlu now come across another lookalike lion who rules the jungle as a king. There is also an evil man who cuts down the forest in his quest for a hidden goldmine. From this point onwards there is an uproar in the jungle, literally!!! There are situation and how Motu & Patlu land on them is hilarious. In the end they always rescue themselves with their ideas & their unique thinking.
Director Suhus D. Kadav has done full justice to this Children’s entertainment but with a slight hangover of Hollywood film The Jungle Book. The main message of the film “Save The Forest” is perfectly driven home. Technically also the film is far more superior than previous such films especially the voice overs which are perfectly in sync.
An ideal entertainment for one and all during this festive season of Diwali.
