The Jungle Book

   Based on the books by Rudyard Kipling, the movie depicts a young boy, Mowgli, raised by wolves in the jungle. The pack, led by Akela, has accepted Mowgli as one of their own after he was brought to the pack by the panther Bagheera. As dry seasons comes, the animals of the jungle gather to drink water, a tiger with a  burnt face shows up, picking up Mowgli's scent. The tiger, Shere Khan, got his face burned by Mowgli's father, and is out for revenge. In an attempt to protect Mowgli, Bagheera tries to force him back, but when learning Shere Khan is terrorizing his pack, the young boy returns to fight the tiger.
   Having enjoyed the books at a young age, I can honestly say that this is one of the few remakes that actually worked out in favor of the movie. With impeccable CGI and a talented child actor (Neel Sethi) playing the part of Mowgli, the movie is more than memorable and will probably remain in my thoughts for quite a while.
   Highly recommended if you are a fan of Disney's work, the original books or just a movie fanatic in general!
