All BS aside I thought it would be steeping towards being another all show and no tell feast for the eyes MoCap , but in truth , i found myself all be it unexpectedly , engaged and immersed in the storyline . I know im not a recognised critic and quite possibly this review will go mostly unnoticed but as a film lover I felt I shouldn't just go away from this without giving it a review which it most definitely deserves. The tone from the outset is much darker than other adaptations of kiplings work so this one is in my opinion not for younger children. But as far as adults are concerned this adaptation must be viewed first before you allow your children to watch it . That being said I thought the film had great depth, a very fluent and engaging plot and i actually thought this portrayal of the story was what kept my attention held. A must see for fans of the genre . Gripping and intense.
