Mowgli: Legend Of The Jungle
Very well done and (personally) satisfying take on Kipling's 'Jungle Book' stories. I especially enjoyed seen Kaa correctly portrayed as one of the good guys in the cycle (although wrongly depicted as female), Baloo being less of a buffoon, and Bagheera somewhat ethically flexible where Mowgli's welfare is concerned.
I understand that this film didn't make a lot of money, so it's unlikely to undo the damage that Disney et al have done to Kipling's stories. Sad.
