Disney successfully weaved together several of Rudyard Kipling's original jungle stories into a fun-filled adventure for children and adults. Well-received and quite memorable, The Jungle Book is full of unforgettable characters and timeless songs, although it was unable to reach the level of emotion and passion that would later be perfected with The Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast.

Yet I played Jungle Book for her and she was nearly glued the whole time, and wanted to see it again as soon as it ended. She just adored this film. And when the catchy tunes started, she actually jumped and danced around with a big grin on her face. I think Disney has lost its 'magical' touch. If you want to start up a DVD collection for your kids, just stick to the classics....Read more
