Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle Ratings & Reviews
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
Moreso even than the film's violence and suspense, what sets "Mowgli" apart from other versions of this animal fable is its moral contradictions.
AV Club
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
Even those who've never read or seen a version of The Jungle Book will find Mowgli's take on the story excessively familiar.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
"Mowgli" wasn't done any favors by happenstance. But even on its own it comes up short, lacking some of the bear necessities needed to tell this tale.
Seattle Times
Soren Andersen
"Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle" is a bloody good version of "The Jungle Book." And I do mean bloody.
812filmreviews
Robert Daniels
"Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they should." Ian Malcolm's words have never rung so true as with Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
Honestly, the visuals let a stellar voice cast down. In trying so hard to escape Disney, Serkis just fell deeper in his shadow.
Vox
Emily St. James
You have to wade through a whole bunch of effects that feel ... abandoned before they were fully baked.
Chicago Reader
Andrea Gronvall
Unlike Jon Favreau's insipid 2016 live-action retread... this live-action adaptation of Rudyard Kipling's classic about a feral Indian boy reared by wolves teems with flesh, blood, and mud, conveying a true sense of danger and adventure.
The Atlantic
David Sims
The film feels painfully incomplete, from its frequently told story to its weak visuals.
Variety
Peter Debruge
The film is not without spectacle, but it is strangely without soul.
Polygon
Karen Han
When Mowgli finally encounters other humans, Serkis' strengths as a director become more apparent.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Bilge Ebiri
The film reminds you that the jungle is a terrifying place, that nature is cruel, and humans even crueler.
TheWrap
Monica Castillo
Serkis throws in too many new elements and, in the process, derails the plot's familiarity and some of its charms.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
This is one of those happy occasions where the Netflix model allows a project that might have been lost in the theatrical wilds to find its place in the circle of life, albeit on a lower tier of the jungle canopy.
RogerEbert.com
Matt Zoller Seitz
['Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle'] gets lost in the woods early and never emerges.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
The filmmakers are clearly trying to bring an uncommon maturity to the fantasy film, and in many respects they succeed. While not everything here works, what does is impressive.
The Hollywood Reporter
Michael Rechtshaffen
Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle may have intended to offer a darker, grittier take on the classic Kipling stories, but the end result proves to be more of a murky muddle.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
Like the boy himself, the movie is not able to resolve its conflicting dualities.
San Francisco Chronicle
Peter Hartlaub
"Mowgli" confirms that hard work and cunning, not good songwriting skills, are the best assets for survival in an increasingly cruel world.
Tribune News Service
Rick Bentley
Was the world clamoring for another take on Kipling's stories? Has there been a movement to get more animals into films? Hasn't anyone got any original ideas using children, the jungle and a bunch of wild animals?
