HERE COMES THE GRUMP
Watchable. No frills animation. A cheaply made cartoon where even Nena's most famous song - "99 Red Balloons" - gets a cover sung by some Mexicans. The plot's shambolic at first. Luckily, if you keep watching, you get interesting cultural clashes between the fairy-tale and the real world. New worlds are inventive too: drinks of oxygen, mood-changing arrows, a Christmas land. A few bits are tear-jerking. The film teaches children to support those in depression
FANNEY KHAN
Recommended. I still hear the music in my head. Amit Trivedi composed the songs and Pihu Sand sang most of them - always tremendously beautifully. Interestingly, such movie characters as Mary Kom or Bahubali are mentioned in one of the songs. On the whole it's just lots of great music and a comic story with a touching ending - true Bollywood. Not directly inspired by but similar to Susan Boyle's story.
