I decided to watch the original Disney cartoon before the updated live-action version and couldn't believe how disappointed I was.
The Jungle Book was, to put it succinctly, a bore, with ludicrous detours in the story that were absurd even in cartoon form.
THE BOTTOM LINE: I'm a fan of Disney's work, both the old, hand drawn animated tales, and the new ones, but this movie just didn't work for me. It's the rare flop for the venerable studio as far as I'm concerned.
Grade: 4
