Movie Review: Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle – Visually Stunning and Entertaining But Missing Something.
lthough the novel, “The Jungle Book,” has been made and remade into a movie many times over, what Andy Serkis does in Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle is both captivating and visually appealing. The live action between man and animal is enchanting. Newcomer Rohan Chand is brilliant as the “man-cub” Mowgli. His seamless interaction with all the animals of the jungle is outstanding. While I did enjoy the story, I felt something was lacking throughout the movie. I still can’t pinpoint what that missing ingredient is but I will say, Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle does leave an impression.
