Movie Review (English)
I remember reading The Jungle Book as a kid, and that was many, many years ago. Mowgli finding a home with wolves always fascinated me. Later, I saw the animated movie and after a long hiatus saw the latest one directed by Jon Favreau.
With every frame, I lived with Mowgli in the forest, roaming with the wolves, the elephants, Kaa, Baloo, Bagheera and of course Sher Khan. It was quite a magical journey. That an animation movie could accomplish all this really is indescribable.
Its exciting to imagine the kind of movies we will be watching by the end of this decade. Technologically, I mean. The 3 D effect already had me inside the jungle, almost hynotised by Kaa and devoured by Sher Khan. Neel Sethi couldn't have given a better performance considering he had to imagine the jungle around him.
Jon Favreau, you have patience and resilience. Hopefully, you will continue on this difficult path and give the world many such pleasures!!
