On the whole, Jumbo is a sweet, sincere and simple film that works.....Though Jumbo may not be as entertaining as Hanuman , it fares well than many amateur movies of this genre..... ... Full Review

So the treatment becomes trite with the hackneyed revenge drama angle forced in.
Who wins the war is as easy as predicting the animal's species from the name Jumbo.

Nevertheless, the film boasted of good animation and was a good full fledged musical ( Roadside Romeo was a musical as well but the music wasn't as good) to arrive on the big screen.
Here is a low down on the performance of some of the most notable animation films which were unleashed to the audience in the year gone by.

With attempt of savoring to the tastes of kids, 'Jumbo' runs short of humor quotients.
But regrettably, the sluggish narration fails to make 'Jumbo' as a tantalizing piece.
Kids looking out animation flick for the first time may enjoy watching it...

Watch it for the spectacular battle scene in the end, it's the film's one big highlight.....while the animation itself isn't bad, the film as a whole doesn't quite work....I'll go with two out of five and at best an average rating for Jumbo .....Dimple Kapadia as the voice of Devi, Jumbo's doting mother, is similarly uninspired, investing nothing distinct, nothing special to her part.....who succeed in making their characters memorable by giving them some meat to chew on..... ...

He feels the film will do well, thanks to Akshay Kumar's voice-over as well as by others and promotions.
We are quite confident about 'Jumbo' as it has a name like Akshay Kumar attached with it.

On the whole, 'Jumbo' is a sweet, sincere and simple film that works.
The animation isn't at par with the best, but the quality is better than some of the stuff we've witnessed in India.
