    What makes this sequel work is the charm of its story.
  2. A work of such charm and imagination it should enchant, as the old circus phrase goes, "children of all ages."

    It may be nearly 40 years past due, but it was worth the wait.

  1. I actually enjoyed this movie the animation is great and the voice acting is decent and it's faithful to the original and I enjoyed the music, and it tells us about Mowgli's life in the village, although it's a little short but it's great! Expand
  2. This sequel is just an exact replica of the original, but it is not nearly as amusing the second time
  3. I was a huge fan of the original. This however, is simply horrendous. I don't remember much about the movie, however I do remember that I thoroughly hated it! I remember stating it was the "worst movie I had ever seen!" Appalling! Expand
