I am not a very related person to the original works of the Jungle Book, however I believe that this adaptation works as a good form of entertainment expressed in a unique and daring way. It is a film with dark and realistic tones that shows us hard moments to chew and with violent moments and personifications of bloody villains. It is not a gore work, no, but it is a film that manages to manifest itself in a more mature and complete way through a graphic and realistic presentation of wildlife. Obviously, the animals talk and that is not realistic, but it works in the field of the narration of this film, that's what it's all about.
Mowgli is presented with a strong structure and excellent animation works, although somewhat rough at certain moments and slightly inferior to the previous live-action, however, it makes a solid work with special effects and the performance of voices is especially good from all the characters (actors) within the film. The plot is interesting and simple enough to follow with attention and shows us unique and dynamic characters that captivate our eyes and ears. It is an entertaining film, with great potential, perhaps could have been more dramatic or intense, taking a narrative more focused on the evolution of Mowgli as a man, but the film still manages to remain stable with a simple and entertaining premise, as good adaptation, that I do not know, but as a film, it is.
