Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaA plan for "The Jungle Book 3" involved Baloo and Shere Khan being captured, and sold off to a circus in Russia. So Mowgli, Shanti, Ranjan, and Bagheera would have to save them, and Shere Khan would have changed his ways because of his capture. Corey Burton would've replaced Tony Jay as the voice of Shere Khan. But after John Lasseter became CEO of Disney and Pixar, and due to the film's lackluster box-office returns, the idea, along with ideas for several other Disney sequels were scrapped.
- GoofsThe film is set in India, yet the gathering at the monkey city includes hippopotamuses, which are native only to Africa, and ocelots, which are native only to the Americas.
- Crazy creditsA dedication appears and the end of the credits: "This motion picture would not have been possible without the inspiration from the original motion picture and the work of its talented artists and animators."

Featured review
Jungle Book 2 is a pretty decent movie. It doesn't compare to the original but it does pay some respect to it. I gave a lot of credit to Jungle Book 2 because making a sequel to that classic movie is anything but easy.
The plot is surprisingly good and makes sense. It introduces problems to Mowgli as he misses his life in the jungle. Meanwhile Shere Khan is lurking in the jungle, looking for revenge.
I really don't think that a sequel to the masterpiece Jungle Book could of been better than this movie. In other words this movie was doomed from the start but it didn't fail.
I can't really describe what is bad about Jungle Book 2. What I can say is that it was missing key elements that made the original so great. This movie did have some good scenes and did keep me interested.
Overall I actually enjoyed this movie and my advice to future viewers is to not expect something as good as the original. The 5.2 rating is out of place for Jungle Book 2, it deserves better.
My rating: 6.9/10
