If you have seen the original Walt Disney Pictures animated film, this is nothing like it. The animals don't talk, I didn't notice Shere Khan the tiger, and their's no Mowgli father (Sam Neill), Cary Elwes or John Cleese. Young Mowgli is left behind after a trip through the jungle, now after many years Mowgli (Jason Scott Lee) has been found by Dr. Plumford (Cleese) and a bunch of explorers living in the jungle. They try to help him become a proper human being. The animals are cute, fury or necessary, but I would prefer it if Baloo, Baghera and Louie would talk. They are just there as far as I saw to laugh at humans making fools of themselves. Don't bother seeing this unless your an animal lover, or a fans of the actors. Adequate!
