Goofs:
Factual errors: Actually when lady points out monkeys, she identifies first one as macaque, then the next two as Rhesus monkeys (which are also called Rhesus macaques), and the last two as Langurs. The ones that she points out as Langurs, are actually Lemurs, but they look a little alike. more

A Solid Version Of The Classic Story, 11 July 2006
8/10
Author: ccthemovieman-1 from Lockport, NY, United States

This was pretty solid adventure story with colorful backgrounds of a the country of India and jungle scenery.

Jason Scott Lee as "Mowgli" is interesting to watch in the lead. Lee is an intriguing actor. He has an Asian background, but has played an Eskimo, here in Indian and other nationalities in other films. He is one of the more diverse actors I've ever seen, yet he isn't well-known.

Cary Elwes is usually effective as a villain. He has the acting talent that makes him easy to despise! The animals are fun, too, from Mowgli's friends in the jungle to the monkeys and giant snake guarding the lost caves with the treasure. Nicely filmed and a good adventure story for everyone.
