Movie Reviews of The Jungle Book 2 (Special Edition)
Movie Review: "Shanti. Shanti, wait for me!"
Summary: 3 Stars
Baloo decides that he wants to see Mowgli again. Before he can though, he must get past the black panther (his friend) and the band of elephants. He eventually does so, once again finding Mowgli's village. Little does he know that trouble is right behind him!
Shere Khan is right in back of them for a good amount of the movie. Baloo and the animals decide to sing and dance for 5 or so minutes. Mowgli eventually ends up in a tree, waiting for something to happen. Then he spots the boy and Shanti, who gets scared when Baloo appears to "attack". She punches him in the nose, and then after finding out that it was all planned by the two "bear friends", she runs away with the child.
Soon enough Mowgli is after her and they meet up. Shere Khan is nearby and comes out of hiding. It's near the end and Mowgli is at this broken down "palace-looking" place, alone with Shere Khan. Baloo and the child run together, following Shanti, as she too arrives.
After a while of taking turns playing on the gongs to confuse Shere, they eventually meet him face to face. But you know how these Disney movies end. In a happy place. If you haven't seen the movie:
1. You didn't miss that much.
2. If you saw the first, then you might as well watch part 2.
3.5 stars.
end note: I had nothing to compare this movie to since I never saw the first.
Summary of The Jungle Book 2 (Special Edition)
UPC:786936750010DESCRIPTION: Walt Disney s jumpin jungle classic continues in this Special Edition of The Jungle Book 2 with all your favorite characters from the original, toe-tappin classic and more swingin songs! Mowgli has been living in the man-village with his little step-brother Ranjan and his best friend Shanti. But the man-cub still has that jungle rhythm in his heart, and he misses his old buddies Baloo and Bagheera. When Mowgli wanders back to the wild for some swingin fun, he soon finds Baloo isn t the only one waiting for him the man-eating tiger Shere Kahn is lurking in the shadows and planning his revenge. If he is to defeat his nemesis, Mowgli will need the help of both his old friends and his new family. With an all-new Mowgli s Storybook Adventure Game, music videos and more, The Jungle Book 2: Special Edition will have the whole family roaring for more! END
After a delightful opening, in which jungle boy Mowgli (voiced by Haley Joel Osment) recaps much of the original Jungle Book in a sprightly shadow puppet show, The Jungle Book 2 swiftly turns into a carbon copy of the splendidly swinging previous movie. After his old pal Baloo the bear (voiced by John Goodman) draws Mowgli away from the man-village, with all its work and rules, and back into the glorious indolence of the jungle, the movie repeats--in a less energetic form--an encounter with Kaa the snake, the cockney vultures, a musical number at the monkey's palace, the menace of Shere Khan the tiger, and even the song "The Bare Necessities." The only difference is that there's a girl named Shanti along for the ride; sadly, her character is so bland that it doesn't do much to justify the movie's existence. --Bret Fetzer
