50p well spent, 7 June 2007
8/10
Author: Edgewalker from Tuxford, England

Jungle looks like it was made for 50p, in fact its tempting to speculate that the phrase 'cheap and cheerful' didn't exist before 1970. Terry Scott does his best with the one-dimensional Jungle Boy - a role that Jim Dale turned down because of its simplicity. Frankie Howard is on fire throughout, its impossible to tell where the script ends and the ad-libs begin. Sid James and Joan Sims add experience and class. Valerie Leon adds Valerie Leon. Jacki Piper is exceptional in her first Carry On role. The wonderful Kenneth Connor returns and strolls through the film like he's never been away. Bernie Bresslaw makes a small part something special. 50p well spent.
