Krishna Aur Kans Movie Reviews
3.5
Allen O' Brien | Times Of India
We don't really have a whole lot of films back home specially made for kids. Now that is not the only reason to watch this movie. Krishna aur Kans is undisputedly a visual delight (specially in 3D) with psychedelic, vibrant colours, and voiceovers that ain't all that bad. While Om Puri's Kans is convincing as the bad guy calling the shots, Juhi Chawla is perhaps the voice every tween would relate to. She in fact seems to be re-livingRead full review3.0

Krishna Aur Kans is pretty much what most Indians already know. Kansa is the evil King of Mathura. When he finds out that his newly wed sister’s eighth child will bring his downfall, he captures her with her husband and kills seven of her children. As the legend goes, when the eighth child, i.e. Krishna, is born, his father takes him to Yashoda. Krishna begins to show his godly powers at a young age, killing Kansa’s demons one after anotherRead full review2.5

When Arjun: The Warrior Prince released in May this year, this reviewer was convinced that India’s animation industry is headed in the right direction, where storytelling and technological advancement go hand in hand and no difference is made between adult and children audiences. Arjun grabbed and retained the attention of both. Three months later, sadly, the same cannot be said about Krishna Aur KansRead full review2.0

In a movie designed primarily for children, the violence should be kept to a bare minimum. In fact, if it can be done away with, it is even better. Younger children flinch at negativity shown on-screen and KRISHNA AUR KANS has some gory scenes in 3D that is sure to scare a lot many young ones away. There's Kans Mama annihilating an entire village and killing seven newborn children of his sister Devaki, one after anotherRead full review2.0

It is nothing less than ironic when a film is titled 'Krishna aur Kans' but instead of the protagonist, it is the antagonist that turns out to be the best part of the affair. This is what happens in this Vikram Veturi directed animation film which stays on to be interesting when Kans is on the scene but loses momentum after Krishna makes his entry. This is the reason why the first and second half of the film are poles apartRead full review2.0

With good production values, ‘Krishna Aur Kans’ is childish but enjoyable, but you really need to avoid the lack of excellence in animation.Read full review2.0

On the whole, KRISHNA AUR KANS could’ve been a fascinating interpretation of a much-loved mythological. However, it turns out to be a strictly okay watch!Read full review1.5

After the recent mytho-animation Arjun, here comes India’s first ever animated stereoscopic 3D film. This one too digs into the golden treasure trove of India for some timeless bedtime anecdotes that tell the story of Krishna defeating mean maternal uncle Kans, highlighting the victory of good over evil. The plot: Kans, the cruel yuvraaj of Mathura, is warned by the gods that his end will be wrought by his sister Devaki’s 8th childRead full review
