Critic Reviews

• Gary Goldstein, Los Angeles Times

  A painless, if only mildly inventive, animated comedy.

• Neil Genzlinger, New York Times

  It shamelessly rips off much better animated movies. What kind of lesson is that for our young people?

• Miriam Bale, New York Daily News

  The film is without wit and, sadly, entirely forgettable.

• Joe Leydon, Variety

  Blandly unremarkable.

• Sherilyn Connelly, Village Voice

  Although its message is never subtle, Delhi Safari is fun enough to earn the right to preach.

• Lisa Tsering, Hollywood Reporter

  Out-of-date animation throws up a roadblock for this Indian animated 3D family film.

• Robin Clifford, Reeling Reviews

  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.

• Sandie Angulo Chen, Common Sense Media

  Bollywood numbers can't save derivative wild-animal tale.

• Jim Judy, Screen It!

  Going to the zoo, watching Animal Planet or reading National Geographic will be more enlightening than this. (Full Content Review for Parents also available)

• Laura Clifford, Reeling Reviews

  ...U.S. audiences, at least, are bound to find the animation here subpar for a theatrical release.

• Ethan Alter, Film Journal International

  Although set in India, the Bollywood-backed cartoon Delhi Safari speaks the universal language of middling kiddie entertainment.

• Kalvin Henely, Slant Magazine

  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.
