Review of The Jungle Book (1994) by Sgy0003 — 24 Apr 2016
Absolutely loved it.
The movie's aesthetic and setting borrows from the original book, while the story follows somewhat close to the original animated movie. Now, it has its own share of dark moments, but it is not enough to be really called "scary". If you have children, it should be a safe and great film for me.
The VA was superb. Everyone sounded the part. Scarlett Johanson as Kaa was especially great IMO. But the true star of the movie is the main star, Mowgli. Keep in mind the kid was talking to the thin air when they were shooting the film. He did amazing job.
The music and the sounds were on par as well. Bare Necessities, I want to be like you, and Trust in me all does really good job of taking the older audiences on a nostalgic trip, while they add their own variations to stay relevant to the younger audiences.
10/10.
