Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!

MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

classicsoncall There are any number of versions of "The Jungle Book" out there, ranging from the 1942 film featuring non-actor Sabu, up to the 2016 modernized epic, quite vibrant and colorful but maybe a bit too intense for young kids. This is undeniably the most kid friendly version, at least of those I've seen, and would be a nice introduction to the Rudyard Kipling stories of Mowgli and his animal friends for young viewers. All of the characters are entertaining, up to and including the villainous Python Kaa and Tiger Shere Khan. They aren't drawn or voiced in such a menacing manner that it would send the youngsters hiding under the bed. The jovial animals like Baloo the Bear and King Louie add an amusing comedic element to the story and with the upbeat songs, the film has the ability to transfix it's audience throughout. I had forgotten all about the comical vultures, and while listening today, I couldn't help thinking that yet another modern day remake might make use of Ringo Starr for one of the British voices; that would be just about perfect. With it's fairly short run time of seventy eight minutes, I thought the ending could have been handled just a little bit better as it seemed quite abrupt once Mowgli met the young Indian girl. Be that as it may, the picture has a nice message of friendship and loyalty, and serves well as the nineteenth and last animated feature that Walt Disney would have been personally involved in. The picture ought to be considered required viewing for all youngsters who might enjoy an uplifting jungle adventure.

elto-30283 A beautifully made movie, one of my favourites when I was a child.The friendship between the boy and the jungle animals is shown in a funny and quite moving way.A nice movie to watch with your kids on a Saturday/Sunday afternoon.

snperera the songs, the characters, the story. this movie has it all. there is such heart and love and adventure in this story and it has a great message about animals and humans and their relationship together. I will always love this movie and I will always love the kid in this movie and he is so smart, kind, funny, energetic, and adventurous. This movie is a Disney classic.

FilmBuff1994 The Jungle Book is a great movie with a well written storyline and a stellar voice cast. Its filled with very lovable characters, which I think is the main highlight, the relationship between Mowgli and Baloo is very sweet, Shere Khan is a great villain and King Louie is simply a delight to watch. As far as plot goes, it is very weak in comparison to other Disney classics, its extremely straight forward, lacking any extra layers to make it a more compelling story, its simply following a boy who lives in a jungle, eventually being threatened by a tiger, and is eventually saved. The musical numbers are terrific, with the likes of "Bare Necessities" and "I Wanna Be Like You" always being a pleasure to hear, they are catchy, upbeat and will leave you in a good mood. Though its story may be weak for todays standards, The Jungle Book is a fun, light hearted animation that the whole family can enjoy. A boy who lives in the jungle with his animal companions is threatened by a ferocious tiger.
