Heard nothing but good things about it

Definitely worth a watch. Beautiful movie

It's excellent. At least on par or better than the original. Sheer Khan is fricking terrifying in it, and everyone else is well cast.

Best movie I've watched so far this year.

It's good. Idris Elba is great, as always.

I loved it thought it was great and very well done

Can anyone explain why King Louie is fricking gargantuan

I enjoyed it because of the visuals alone. But damn was I disappointed as a whole. I was PUMPED about this movie. Maybe that's why I was let down.
I didn't get into the story at all. Nothing really pulled me in. I constantly had random thoughts and wondered how long the movie would be or why they did certain things...which I never do in any movie.

I liked it, the special effects with the animals was very life-like and the kid who played Mowgli did a great job. Sheer Khan is badass in it. There's only a small handful of cheesy pparts that might be distracting I'd say. It was definitely made to appeal to children.

I disagree. Sheer Kahn was to scary. He brutally killed Mowgli's wolf dad just B/c.
My 4 year old was genuinely scared of him.
King Louie was scary big for whatever reason.
If anything it appeals to adults more and is too violent for a kids movie.
Even the snake is scary. At least on the cartoon version there is a goofiness about the snake, that takes away from the evil.
I just thought it was a little too realisticly scary for a kids movie.

I feel like although I see where you're coming from bill Murray almost single handedly made it very kid friendly. Really lightened the mood and played a great belue.

My 4 and 8 year old did fine.

Is the target audience really children though? I think what drives this movie is adult nostalgia.
I thought it was fantastic BTW.

Took my kids to see this last night. My 8 year old daughter was legit scared in a few parts. My 3 year old son was glued to it and laughed a good bit.
Overall it was very well done. The CGI was great. I caught myself just watching for that instead of the story a few times.
Not sure why King Louie was huge. The kid that played Mowgli was great. Recognized most of the voices right away but for some reason it took me a few minutes to register it was Bill Murray.
