Entertainment Reviews:
The result is thoroughly delightful. The reasons for its success lie in Disney's own unfettered animal spirits, his ability to be childlike without being childish.

Rating: B+ --
The plot and pacing may be nearly as lazy as the sloth bear Baloo (Phil Harris), but animators use that to their advantage, developing the characters so that even minor ones seem majorly entertaining.

The standout song goes to Harris, a rhythmic 'Bare Necessities' extolling the value of a simple life and credited to Terry Gilkyson.

The period's feathery drawing style abounds, and an all-round warmth pervades.

Disney's grandniece recently cast aspersions on the picture, but I don't share her pessimism.

[Blu-ray Review] Looking and sounding like a million bucks (or more) and full of exhaustive bonus content new and vintage, the Blu-ray release of "The Jungle Book" is a must-own for anyone who loves animation, the Walt Disney studio, or film in general.

Written by the Sherman Brothers, the songs are catchy and make me smile every time I hear them.

Description by OLDIES.com:
There couldn't have been a better way to showcase Rudyard Kipling's famous jungle tale than in eye-popping Technicolor under the fantastical direction of Zoltan Korda ("Sahara"), and filling the role of Mowgli with the legendary Sabu ("Elephant Boy" "The Thief of Bagdad"). This 1942 feature was nominated for four Academy Awards (including one for Miklos Rozsa's musical score) and serves as a nice companion piece to the beloved 1967 Disney cartoon. But beware; there are no singing animals here, just a darker, more realistic depiction of the jungle striking back at those who would violate its secret code!
