Jungle Book ( the Movie )
Amazing ( CGI ) Visuals and an Entertaining Story Going into it I was a bit skeptical of the "talking animals " aspect of the movie - but it overall worked pretty well Best seen in 3 D IMAX think i might actually see it again this week May 08 16 02:15 pm Link Garry k wrote: I took my son to go see it last weekend. We both enjoyed it. CGI and overall look was amazing. May 08 16 02:23 pm Link not interested. The 1967 original will always be My favorite, I would have been 6 at the time of its release and can still recite most of the songs today with Baloo the Bear being the coolest cartoon character I can think of ever. .  . . way to mess up a good thing IMO May 08 16 02:25 pm Link FIFTYONE PHOTOGRAPHY wrote: Then you should reconsider it, all the more reason to go and see it. they did not forget there was an original and did a lot to show respect to it IMO. May 09 16 12:44 am Link went to see it because it was produced by the mighty Jon Favreau. Definitely one of the best movies of the year. If you like his films you will enjoy this. May 09 16 03:00 am Link I'm always surprised when people refer to the 1967 Jungle Book as "original." The original was 1894. And it's better than the 1967 version.

They forget (or never knew) that such things (as well as adaptations from books and plays and such) have been happening for as long as there have been movies. May 09 16 01:30 pm Link I thought the voice acting was exceptional. Probably my favorite voice acting of any movie I've watched. I'm not a Bill Murray fan but I thought he was great. I saw it in IMAX 3D also, great experience. I generally prefer Cinemark XD because I think IMAX screens are a little much but I'm glad I saw it in IMAX 3D. I haven't watched any other Jungle Book movie or read the book so I don't have that nostalgic factor or emotional attachment to tarnish my experience. May 09 16 09:07 pm Link I'm a fan of the original story, and I can't imagine how that could be rendered effectively without CG. I mean, since those animals talked and all. I'm looking forward to it. I'm hoping it stays relatively true to the story. May 09 16 09:10 pm Link Justin wrote: it still has the songs in it. That really made my day.
