      Angie Han Slashfilm A must-see spectacle. Rated: 8/10 Jun 14, 2017 Full Review Claudia Puig The Asahi Shimbun GLOBE (Japan) It's the very rare remake that's actually better than the original. The Jungle Book is that rarity. [Full review in Japanese] Rated: 3.5/4 Dec 19, 2016 Full Review Dwight Brown National Newspaper Publishers Association Debates will rage about this kids pic's place in film history. Is it the best, or one of the best? That's the kind of a conversation that will thrill the team behind The Jungle Book. Nov 8, 2016 Full Review Rachel Wagner rachelsreviews.net But for a visual experience and for something new I definitely recommend seeing Jungle Book. I think you will really enjoy it. Rated: B+ Oct 27, 2023 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand ... offers far more than the bare necessities as it combines Kipling's stories and Walt Disney's 1967 animated musical adaptation for a marvelous new version of the classic story of a boy quite literally raised by wolves. Sep 22, 2023 Full Review Don Shanahan Every Movie Has a Lesson Ferocity steps ahead of frolic and you might ask yourself how you feel about that when you watch "The Jungle Book." Rated: 3/5 Sep 4, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

      David G Probably one of the best coming-of-age movies I've ever seen. I regard myself as a tough man and Y cryed like a baby in the third act. The CGI is spotless. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/02/24 Full Review Sonic n i love how shere khan is much, much more of a menace in this version. the cgi is nicely done, i could watch this a thousand times and still be amazed. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/02/24 Full Review Audience Member The best Disney Live Action Remake because it actually improved the original Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/21/24 Full Review Timur, Chi, T, Samilia, Tangram and Samil M The only good live action remake of a classic Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/06/24 Full Review Emilliano Jr S A classic turned into live action is either a big miss or hit. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/28/24 Full Review Platty the Perrypus W As the live action remakes typically go, this one is surprisingly just kind of ok Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/06/24 Full Review Read all reviews
