Don't see how anyone could not enjoy this movie

^ Yeah, I'm not interested in very many PG movies, especially with talking animals, heh. But this was surprisingly well done and thoroughly entertaining.

yeah the animals looked incredible and realistic.

I thought that movie was a bit stale. Felt more like a "what if" scenario on a coffee shop talk about remakes and the idea got taken all the way to the end. Kind of like the drunk guy at the party saying that it would be amazing if someone could jump off the roof and then actually does it. You weren't actually supposed to follow through on this idea...

And the singing felt very awkward and out of place. It was like "oh my gosh...we are gonna not be a musical...but...dang it..here...is a tiny tiny little bit...okay, wow, damn, this is awkward, let's stop. Let's not do that again."

Gave it a 5 out of 10.

Decent. Nothing exceptional or amazing but then again I'm not a kid who reads goosebumps novels. More emotion than Batman v. Superman though.

You may not read Goosebumps novels but you're definitely the guy that gives kids, goosebumps. 💃

Really? Wow, your opinion but holy shit man...you must be the real life Ebenezer Scrooge. I don't see how you can watch that film and not come away impressed. To each their own.

Quit trying to derail every topic into one of your creep fests. You're a loser. We all get it.

Bear necessities fit in the movie beautifully and was totally organic everything you're saying is completely alien to me

Civil War is only a few weeks away.

I think you summed up what my feelings are about it pretty good. Like cgi was amazing but the movie itself didnt wow me at all. Also I know Mowgli is young but he was kinda annoying to me.

What were your expectations for this movie?

I didnt have any. I pretty just went hey Jungle Book why not go see how good it is. And just came out like.. Well it wasn't a waste of time but wasn't anything exceptional.

I hear ya. The movie is meant to be a kids movie just putting that out there.

Nah. It's really not. It's a movie for kids sure, but adults can enjoy it. The reviews from ADULTS and audiences FEATURING ADULTS have been stellar. So...no; you're wrong.

I'm wrong even though you admit it's a movie for kids? Who said adults cannot enjoy kids movies? The movie is darker and has a lot of adventure and action, so I'm not shock that adults like the movie also.

So no, I right as you already admitted.

Holy crap, I had no idea people loved the movie so much.

Just checked out Rotten Tomatoes. Holy balls! It has raving reviews and an absurd high score.

I guess I'm in the very small minority...

Yup, here is the one other person that apparently didn't fall in love with this movie.

No, you're wrong because it's not JUST a kids movie. It's a FAMILY movie. That means it's for adults AND kids.

I don't think it's necessary to fall in love with it to recognize that it is a very well-crafted film.

Great film with cgi rivaling Life of Pi. So much fun and thought put into this movie. You can tell they put a lot of love into this movie. The fight scenes of BvS was great. I mean Bageera v Shere Khan. That was better than Batman vs Superman's fight.
