Das Dschungelbuch - Mowglis Abenteuer

"Now your whole family can relive Disney's 'The Jungle Book', from Mowgli's point of view."

Haw! Now THAT is some serious false advertising.

This takes the concept of The Jungle Book and reduces it down to merely "boy is raised by wild animals and shenanigans happen". This film has no real sense of thrill or danger nor any of the mystic charm that was present in all other depictions of The Jungle Book. It takes all that and replaces it with corny gags and bare bones storytelling.

Kids deserve better than this.

Lastly, on a VERY petty, nitpicky note, there is a LOT more misplaced wildlife in this movie than in all, but one other depiction of The Jungle Book (The Jungle Book 2 in case you're wondering). Macaws, chimpanzees, and American black bears are not in India.
