I know I am a little too late for the review of this movie,
many people had watched and reviewed as soon as the movie came out but not me.
When people say it’s a good movie I just can’t watch it right away because my
hopes gets high I fear I will end up disliking the movie myself. Also I waited
to watch this movie because it a movie about Mowgli and that is a concept I
never really understood. I mean it’s a story about a boy and wild animals I mean how does that make sense? But then again it is just a fantasy film. Ok now let’s talk about ‘The Jungle
Book’ movie.
For me movie The Jungle book is about a boy and his journey
to manhood. The film starts with Mowgli running with the wolf pack he wants to continue the legacy of the wolf pack; he wants
to be a wolf. But, to become a wolf, first he must accept that he is a human
and he cannot fight or protect his friends and family by becoming something he
is not.
We get to see his guardian Bagheera, a black panther who introduced Mowgli as a child to the wolf pack to where he is raised by wolf Raksha who is
also a mother to his pups.
When Shere Khan threatens the pack,because of the Mowgli cuz he is a human child, He makes his own choice to leave the pack for good to keep his family safe.
Before leaving the jungle, the emotional scene between Raksha and Mowgli is well shot and Neel Sethi who is playing the role of Mowgli is very good actor and can make any scene
and his expressions believable. I don’t know why but emotional scene of a
mother always kills me inside.
Before leaving the pack Raksha says to his son Mowgli
“Never forget this, You’re mine, mine to me. No matter where you go or what they may call you, you’ll always be my son.”
