Review by zacsanders ½ 1

One of the worst cartoons I've ever seen. I'm grounding my child for even suggesting we watch this.

Review by Goofyahhfilms ½ 3

PETA approved...

Review by Travis Lytle ★★★

Gruff, derivative, and occasionally unpleasant, Nikhil Advani's "Delhi Safari" rides one catchy song and one plucky parrot to become an engaging, mildly enjoyable animated adventure. The animal-centric musical boasts questionable designs and cantankerous characters but is moderately charming enough to rise to the level of worthy, family-friendly oddity.

Lifting wholesale plot points from both "The Lion King" and "Madagascar," India's "Delhi Safari" revolves around a group of animals driven to protect their homes and, if needed, take on humankind. Journeying to the city led by a feline apparition, the beasts teach humans the importance of sharing the world. The themes are direct, and the story, when not plagiarizing story beats, has compelling moments.

As a production, the film has low…

this movie is perfect everybody just shut up

Review by animaldoctor ½ 2

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

Alright, this is one of those movies I'm gonna have to figure out my rating for as I'm writing the review, so just bare with me here. I saw this movie eons ago when I was much younger and completely forgot about it until it just randomly popped in my memory again. I decided to check it out again today and oh, boy, does it NOT stand the test of time. I mean, I had forgotten most of the movie except for a character's death in the opening scene and a moment of revelation between all of the characters, but I put faith in the idea that maybe this movie wasn't THAT bad. Yeah, it's really not that great. Delhi…

Review by TheBlackSword ½

A very bad children's flick where a parrot attempts to film pornography (???) and a monkey keeps about thirty guns inside his skin. Yes, really. Delhi Safari is a 'film' that was made. The animation is atrocious the characters are banal and the plot almost exists. Watching this film is like watching paint dry except the paint is a monkey that is trying to shoot you. Do. Not. Watch. Delhi. Safari. Please.

Review by TheContrarian ½

So um... The monkey is trying to kill the parrot, right? Like, he's been hiding bombs and machine guns in his skin for this purpose. (They shake it out of his skin pockets, so we know what he was hiding.) And um, the parrot and monkey become friends after they... get drunk on coconut milk. That is highly unrealistic, everyone watching wanted to kill that stupid parrot, the monkey was my favorite character because he wanted to kill that parrot. But NO! This movie had to show kids that EVERYONE becomes friends after getting drunk. They had to throw in morals or whatever. 0/10 because the monkey forgot to follow through.

Review by অন্তহীন নামহীন ★½

Watching this as the eventual ecological collapse of earth happens and Govinda's character was onto something during the begining ya know

Review by Marsworm ½

Painfully boring to watch. Occasionally so-bad-it's-good (how did the monkey keep all those guns in his ... skin?) but mostly just bad.

Review by Stephenfisher2001 ½

I honestly thought this film was pretty boring when I first saw this sometime in the summer of 2013.

But wait a minute... at least two talented actors like Tara Strong and Christopher Lloyd are at least in it as English voice actors, but still doesn't save the film from being bad.

Review by Maaz Hamid ½

Other than a catchy soundtrack, everything else is horrible. The animation (as expected) is too low-budgeted, and the story is predictable and a disaster. I'm not sure what they were supposed to act as, but the characters are poorly developed, and act more human than what they represent. I'm an extreme animal lover, and enjoy movies with animals as titular characters, but here, I'm disappointed.

Delhi Safari

Watch on these services.

• Los Angeles Times Gary Goldstein A painless, if only mildly inventive, animated comedy.
• New York Daily News Miriam Bale The film is without wit and, sadly, entirely forgettable.
• Family Home Theater James Plath ...so many similarities [to The Lion King] you begin to wonder how they got away with it.
• New York Times Neil Genzlinger It shamelessly rips off much better animated movies. What kind of lesson is that for our young people?
• Reeling Reviews Robin Clifford The "Save the Environment" and "Share the World" themes of "Delhi Safari" will keep the adults involved in this nice story that is chock full of snappy, nature-friendly songs that will delight the kids.
• Common Sense Media Sandie Angulo Chen Bollywood numbers can't save derivative wild-animal tale.
• Slant Magazine Kalvin Henely A much better way to strike home the same green message, while also having more fun, would be to just skip this movie and take your kids to a national park.
• Reeling Reviews Laura Clifford ...U.S. audiences, at least, are bound to find the animation here subpar for a theatrical release.
• Variety Joe Leydon Blandly unremarkable.
• Village Voice Sherilyn Connelly Although its message is never subtle, Delhi Safari is fun enough to earn the right to preach.
• Hollywood Reporter Lisa Tsering Out-of-date animation throws up a roadblock for this Indian animated 3D family film.
• Behind The Lens Debbie Lynn Elias [W]hile the names may not be memorable, the characters, the color, the story, the heart and the fun will be -- for years to come. Sign me up for this safari!
• Screen It! Jim Judy Going to the zoo, watching Animal Planet or reading National Geographic will be more enlightening than this. (Full Content Review for Parents also available)
• Film Journal International Ethan Alter Although set in India, the Bollywood-backed cartoon Delhi Safari speaks the universal language of middling kiddie entertainment.
