Cannot understand the negative reviewers. Seems from the comment most are Indians offended by Sita being played by non-Indian actress but why?
We have Ramayana too. The famous Ramayana animation is also from Japan, directed by Yugo Sako. We love Ramayana and monkey magic in Japan, we have a deity like Hanuman in our culture. Please Indian friends, be open minded to adaptation.
My opinion on this movie: thank you for making it and casting diverse cast so it is reachable. Music is nice and specially thank you for Japanese subtitles. I watched in Raindance film festival and was moved by Hanuman story. As a big Sin city fan, but thank you for trying this stylistic choice.

What can I say this film is truly terrible, the animation is basic at best. The acting is some of the worst I've ever come across, it's amazing that Amazon will actually have this on their platform, as it's probably one of the worst films I've come across in years. It's truly not worth the 34 minutes of your time to watch it. Goodness knows how it's managed to Ghana so many accolades and awards, I can only assume that these are either paid for, made up, or corrupt. If you can manage to sit through the full presentation I can only assume that you are doing it under duress or have some sort of fetish for bad films.
At first some of this information shocked me, like Ravana having abducted other women and being cursed, and this having been the reason he couldn't touch Sita, but I later went and fact-checked this information only to find IT IS ALL TRUE! I am actually appalled that no other adaptation properly dealt with this and tried to paint Ravan in a more noble light, as if he had only taken Sita.
If you have seen Adipurush, you need to see this film too. If you were one of the few who didn't hate Adipurush and appreciated what it was trying to do, this is also one of those films, that doesn't just copy every other adaptation, it focuses on different aspects of the book and gives us more to think about.

' Monkey Enters Lanka' takes you on an epic quest filled with jaw-dropping action and incredible animation. The storytelling is spellbinding, and the characters are endearing. This short film takes you on a whirlwind journey through stunning landscapes and intense action sequences. "Money Enters Lanka " characters are captivating, and the pacing is perfect. It's a mini-epic that packs a mighty punch.. The director's fingerprints are all over this amazing piece and it's a masterpiece of his craft. The way he handle the action sequences and character development is nothing short of exceptional."
Monkey by Lanka is a unique movie. The way the movie has been presented is outstanding and with such indepth narrative. Great movie and truely recommended.
