A review by Kamurai

Written by Kamurai on 2020-07-17

Really good watch, would watch again, and can recommend.

I'll honestly go as far as to recommend this over the original 1967 version.

I don't think is quite as charming as the original, and it has a very different animation style, both with great quality of detail in it. From the individual strains of fur, to the types of animals included (I've done so much research on Indian wildlife today), you can really see the details of the cg effects. Just watch the end credit sequence alone, and it'll prove it.

There are 3 huge improvements to this versus others: Sher Khan's face, King Louie...read the rest
