Been a long time coming. Though not to downplay whatever opinions you have for your review before checking it out, but for the longest time I had preference for the live action version for managing to stick closer to the Kipling stories, while still sticking to some elements of the animated movie. And because I tolerated it’s Mowgli more. And perhaps the ending of the animated movie doesn’t exactly stand the test of time these days. If you know what I mean. Though I don’t call the animated movie bad by any means. Edit: Interesting rating and next review is Madagascar! Holy crap! Definitely one of my favorite Dreamworks movies!

Yippie! Animat has finally reviewed my second most favorite Walt Disney Animated feature film! And 8/10 ain't too bad, the same rating as the 2016 remake. And I can't wait to see him review another jungle movie. But this time, it's not by Disney, but it sure likes to move it move it!

When it comes to The Jungle Book or this case the animated version from Disney, I won’t deny that it is a nice feel good movie. I don’t think I would consider it amongst my favorite from Disney Animation as I only seen it few times and that it, but I do think it charming and harmless to watch from the characters, songs, voice acting and come colorful animation as well. It a good film for how it is while being fun for the whole family to watch. Also, I knew it was Madagascar when I hear that “I Like to Move It” song played out. I do have an interesting take to say about that film but I’ll save it for next month.

I really like this movie a lot and it definitely earns its title as a Disney classic, on top of also being a great final animated film from Walt Disney himself. The story, while not the best and doesn’t have much to do with the original story is still decent on it’s own, the animation is beautifully well done, the characters are fun and enjoyable, and the songs are some of Disney’s best and most memorable, also with Mowgli I do understand where people are coming from with him being annoying, but I honestly do see him as a relatable character especially for younger audiences. So overall The Jungle Book (1967) is a great feel good movie and definitely earns its title as a Disney classic. So the next classic review is going to be Madagascar, one of Dreamworks most popular franchises, and a movie that I think is a lot of fun to watch.

I loved this movie when I was younger, too! Also, I have a feeling I’m quite familiar with the next one, as well.

I don't know if I'd call it top shelf but its certainly at least second shelf.

I loved The Jungle Book when I remembered watching it as a kid on VHS at my Grandparents place. At first when I heard about the production of the movie and then the reception when it was released, a part of me wondered if it was a real marvel or just sympathy because of Walt Disney's death. I kind of think both, but that doesn't mean that I can't still enjoy it. But I do agree that the story can be weak but if it wasn't for the lovable characters, songs, and animation (which Disney is always flawless [except for the whole recycling animation aspect, which does not bother me, even the whole scratchy aspect from the Xerography phase {on a side note, I want to know if it was still a problem, because when it got to The Little Mermaid, it felt very clean}]), then this movie would have been like The Sword In The Stone at the time. This was definitely Walt's greatest return to animation as both his comeback and goodbye before he died. As for the next review, being Madagascar, I can't wait. I really loved the humor from what the first brought and am curious about the review.
