Jungle Book review | This visual treat goes over to the dark side

The Jungle Book and the hype around it is worth it. It is a great film but the CGI is even greater.

The story of the film is mostly true to Rudyard Kipling's timeless tale, but the director also turns the jungle into a place of fear and, yet, home. But, how does it measure up to The Jungle Book versions we have seen till now? Well, it matches up. The tone may be different and it may be edgier, but at heart The Jungle Book is still an adventure and a coming-of-age tale. However, here's a word of caution ---- do take your children but prepare them for some awe and shock. The Jungle Book is no longer cute and cuddly but a tale of survival. But we can guarantee one thing, once you and your children do enter it, you would not want to leave.
