Customer Ratings & Reviews

Who would have thought that the beloved Disney animated classic of Rudyard Kipling's "The Jungle Book" could have ever been brought to life with real actors? However, such is the beauty of CGI (computer generated imagery). Real human Mowgli interacts seamlessly with Baloo and Baghera, who are as lovable as Shere Khan is scary. Christopher Walken was inspired casting as the intimidating King Louie. My only complaint was that the re-working of some of the tunes wasn't as strong or catchy as the original. Young kids might find parts a bit scary.

Great movie for all ages, excitement from Beginning to the very end.

Disney did a good job of remaking this movie. My kids like it a lot.

my five year old granddaughter loves DVDS and I have looked all over for DVDS she would like and because I buy so many for her I have to find a good price and Best Buy has the best price and I order new movies when i know she is going to stay with me every time she stays at my house we watch DVDs and she loves to see what movie she gets in her package . I want to thank you so much for helping me make great memories granddaughter

The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling is one of my all-time favorite stories. In this version of The Jungle Book, the kid who plays Mowgli, Neil Sethi, is fantastic as is the entire cast. Idris Elba as Shere Khan is frightening. Bill Murray is a natural as the big, fun-loving Baloo. Sir Ben Kingsley as Bagera. Lupita Nyong'o, Scarlett Johansson, Christopher Walken. What a treat to have such great talent doing the voice-overs. Directed by John Favreau. I highly recommend this film. A genuinely fun ride from start to finish!!!

animated version feels more light-hearted. this one feels very serious.

Disney's foray into live-action moviemaking has produced its best yet with The Jungle Book, a wonderful retelling and modern updating of the classic and beloved animated film and Kipling story. It's a bit darker, but spiritually it's essentially the same movie. Lovingly crafted from top to bottom, the film is a validation of Disney's new direction with its old favorite classics. The Jungle Book's Blu-ray release comes with more than the bare necessities. Video and audio are at the top of the food chain. The supplemental selection is fine, too. Highly recommended.

This was a terrific remake of Disney's The Jungle Book. The picture was fabulous in the scenes in the jungle, and the animation of the animals was so realistic. But Neel Sethi was terrific as Mawgli. This is a movie for both young and old. It has been a while since the last remake of this Kipley novel, but with the advance in technology for the animation, it made this really an outstanding remake. It took a while to recognize the voices of the animals, but once you catch on it was easy to match the voices with the big stars that help make this movie.

This beautiful film is a lovely telling of Kipling's classic.

A good non violent movie for family movie night. Good purchase.

Movie was really good. Ch was well done. My child liked it.

This lush, vibrant reimagining of Disney's classic The Jungle Book is even more impressive when one learns it was all filmed on an indoor soundstage in downtown L.A. and is almost completely computer generated. The only major criticism is that the updated songs in the film are weak echoes of their predecessors -- and it's a frustrating weakness because there are fantastic reworked versions of the original songs in the closing credits. If only they'd used them in the film. Christopher Walken's Col Kurtz impression is a bit of an odd homage that seems a little out of place as well but these are small criticisms given the eye-popping visuals and strong performances, especially from the film's young lead.
