I thought this adaptation was dark and slightly more mature than any before it, while still maintaining a kid friendly vibe. The CGI leaves something to be desired, that is, if you're looking for perfect or near perfect animations. I think that just adds to the charm. The acting is good and the "Mowgli's", baby and boy are adorable. I have no idea why it made me cry at times, hormones maybe, but overall good movie.
I say, see it.
