Movie synopsis

The 19th animated feature produced by Disney studios and the last film supervised by Walt Disney himself. This endearing feature is based on Rudyard Kipling's children's story about a boy named Mowgli raised by wolves in the wilderness of India. During his delightful and scary adventures with a series of wild creatures, Mowgli learns he must leave the jungle and be what nature intended him to be -- a man. Delightful jazz-inspired songs make this a Disney classic.

Great Movie

Created: 13/08/06
I love this movie, it's a classic in my book. I watched this movie over and over when I was a kid. Now, my kids watch it and love it too. I love the songs, they have a catchy beat and are easy to memorize. I like the story too. A little boy is taken in by a wolf family and raised in the jungle. He finds out he has many friends who will help him when he gets into trouble. The ending is so cute. There is never a dull moment in this movie. Kids can't take their eyes off of it. And now this movie is on DVD. Plus, there is a sequel that is just as good as part one, so be sure and check it out as well. Hope this review helps.

Great movie, good version

Created: 26/09/05
The Jungle Book is a fantastic family movie. Kids love it and there is more than enough grown up humor to keep the parents interested. The music is very enjoyable, specially Bare Necessities and Like You.

The interview with creators is quite fascinating. This was my first introduction to Frank and Ollie, the animators extrodinaire of the Disney studios. This was the last movie that was started by Walt and it's obvious the team wanted it to be a tribute to him.

This DVD will remain in my collection long after the kids have gone off to college. It's a fun movie with entertaining bonus material.

All-Time Classic

Created: 09/09/06
This is an all time classic movie. It is full of imagination and fun. It makes you look at 'wild animals' in a different and more tender light. I love to watch as the story unravels from Mogli being taken in and raised in the wild to finding his 'roots'. The music is fabulous and the my kids are glued to the T.V. every time it is on! This I would highly recommend for any young family's collection.
