It isn’t half bad, but the party pooper here is a script that has no direction home.

Despite the cartoony swipes, and the thundering track underlying every scene, ‘Chillar Party’ proves that it is entirely possible to make a smart children’s film, with good production values, with kids seen to be having a blast.

Wonder how restless kids will watch Chillar Party? Filmmakers need to realize Indian tweens are extremely smart and fed on a regular diet of Cartoon Network and roller-coaster Hollywood kiddie’s flicks. You got to have a story, adventure drama and pace. Or else….

You still wish these kids well. So to the others who will go, watch this short film, extended to a full length feature, if they must. Do children ever have much of a choice at theatres anyway?

Chillar Party is an enjoyable film with plenty of laughs. Do watch this, unless of course you hate kids.

Is Chillar Party, then, a perfect children’s film? Saying that would be a bit of a stretch. The characters are less nuanced individuals than recognisable types, etched out and christened on the basis of their defining traits.

Packed with fun yet emotional moments, stellar performances, witty dialogue and a great story, Chillar Party is a must watch for kids and adults alike.

On the whole, ‘Chillar Party’ will be liked mainly by pet lovers. Average in merits, it will find the going at the box-office tough and not just because it lacks face value and has been sandwiched between big and star-cast films and will continue to face the onslaught of big releases.

On the whole, CHILLAR PARTY is not just for kids, but for grownups as well. A story of grit and determination, it works not just as an entertainer, but also advocates a message rather strongly. A film that deserves to be tax-exempted so that it reaches out to a wider audience. A small film with a gigantic spirit… Encourage this one!

CHILLAR PARTY is an honest and heartfelt film which makes you laugh, cry, clap and more importantly, think. Ekdum faadu hai boss!

All in all, with some sweet moments that make you smile, heartfelt ones that have you tear up and whole lot of fun makes Chillar Party a lovely experience for kids and adults alike, regardless of its shortfalls.

Guaranteed to be a sure entertainer for kids as well as for adults!
