The Jungle Book movie review: This is what critics has to say

Jon Favreau's zippy reboot of the Mowgli stories is anything but another bland attempt to mine a timeless favourite. The Jungle Book, scripted by Justin Marks, has a life and logic of its own. Packed from end to end with stunning action and liberal doses of humour and emotion, the film presses all available VFX tools into service and consistently hits the right buttons.
