Movie Reviews Part 1 Kids Movies
The Jungle Book, 1967, Walt Disney Animation Studio.
My daughter likes this movie and so do I. It has fewer of the Disney tropes than the more objectionable titles they have produced. It is less scary too. The animals are well animated and the voice actors are just right, particularly Louie Prima and George Sanders. Mr French is just right as the panther. The few songs are all hits, the swing/scat style of the monkey king must have seemed revolutionary at the time. Still fresh.
**** four stars (out of five)
