Reviews

Screen International - Sarah Ward
Conjuring up a serving of visual magic is one thing, of course; bringing Kipling’s characters and narrative to life is another.

Village Voice - Bilge Ebiri
If only all blockbusters could be this exciting, engrossing, and beautiful.
80
TheWrap - Alonso Duralde
It’s a testament to the total-immersion powers of The Jungle Book, from its visual splendors to its sound design, that the seams never show; even more impressive is the film’s use of its craft not merely to dazzle us but also to further its dramatic agenda.
80
Variety - Andrew Barker
Maintaining the buoyant heartbeat beneath all the digital flash, Favreau never loses sight of the fact that he’s making an adventure story for children.
80
The Telegraph - Robbie Collin
Favreau’s film is a sincere and full-hearted adaptation that returns to Kipling for fresh inspiration, but also knows which elements of the animation are basically now gospel, and comes up with a respectful reconciliation of the two.
