REVIEW: 'The Jungle Book' is the Adaptation We Were Hoping for


Walt Disney's The Jungle Book, which came out back in 1967, is one of my personal favorite Disney films. If I were to rank all of the films in the Disney Animation canon, The Jungle Book would easily be in my top 10. And now with Disney's recent obsession with remaking their classic films in live-action, a remake of The Jungle Book made me very skeptical. However, with each trailer, i became more and more won over on the film and I was starting to really look forward to it! But now that I have seen the movie, I couldn't be happier to say, in full confirmation, that The Jungle Book is an absolutely incredible film that is faithful to both the 1967 animated classic and the Rudyard Kipling stories.
