Watch Sanjay's Super Team For Free

Truly Dreadful Film

That was an excellent one.

Dreadfully Boring

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

This is an odd Pixar film in a sense, because the focus is not on the cuteness or the fun, but on the story. Although the animation is good, it is not as good as other Pixar films. However, this is an excellent film mostly because it has substance and teaches a great lesson tokids who belong to a culture that is very different from the Western World but adore the same TV shoes, heroes, and stories as any other kid in the world.The focus in this film is on the Hindu culture, as Patel is narrating a semi-autobiographic episode. Hindu culture is full of myths, legends and heroes that are thousands of years old, are amazing, fun and as enthralling as any TV super-hero. This film is a reminder that sometimes the best stories are those behind the traditions one take for granted, that those traditions are based on powerful stories with powerful heroes.What I liked the most about the film is that the story approaches both worlds, the old and new, the modern and antique, the lay and the divine as complementary, they are both cool, there is space in our lives for both. Kids can enjoy our modern myths (playful TV characters, animated heroes, superheroes) but also need to learn to respect and appreciate the value of their own culture, the meaning of their rituals, and the powerful stories they convey.Finally, this short film is also a charming ode to the power of the divine, prayer, meditation and tradition in our modern hectic lives.It is refreshing seeing animators going beyond the cute to focus on such an important message.

I took my daughter to see "The good dinosaur" and got this scary movie instead. It's been 2 days now and she is still afraid to sleep without us staying with her.The "short" started normally, showing an Indian child watching T.V, then come prayer time and then the kid gets carried away into an awful scary fight with a monster and 3 Hindu gods that are symbolically similar to the child's 3 super heroes from his favorite t.v show. At that Point, the noises and animation became too much to bare for a little child.about 10 other kids where led out of the theater since they were afraid.Too bad that a "short" with such a potential and emotional story, gets a low review just for forcing these images on little children that just came to see a movie about a good dinosaur

Sanjay wants to watch his favourite superhero show on TV rather than join his father in prayer. However, he discovers that Hindu deities are, in their own way, superheroes.I love the way Pixar give their up-and-coming staff the opportunity to generate short films (this one accompanies The Good Dinosaur), and there have been some very successful little films which have emerged as a result of that policy. Sanjay's Super team is not one of them, at least as far as I'm concerned. Perhaps this is because it is personal to creator Sanjay Patel to the extent that I could not identify with it at all. And perhaps it is because I felt it had an air of political correctness to it which I didn't care for.The story is slight, but the visuals in the action section are stunning, and the 3D is very effective.

Went to watch The Good Dinosaur and was UNPLEASANTLY SURPRISED by this short film which was played before the movie (Sanjay's Super Team.) This short film was extremely inappropriate for young children and scared my 2 and 4 year old terribly. The demon in this short film was terrifying, I am DISGUSTED that they played this before the movie so that we were forced to watch it. I also did not appreciate the fact that Sanjay's Super Team was centered around Hindu deities. My 4 year old had many questions after the short film, of which he is too young to be asking. It is my job as a parent to teach my children about all of the religions of the world, not Pixars. I do not appreciate being forced to watch a religious film with my young children with no warning. Had I known we were going to have to sit through this short film we would've exited the theater until it was over with. There was no reason to show this short film before a movie that is aimed for young children. Truly disgusting.
