Plot

Mowgli, lost in the jungle when a toddler, raised by wolves, years later happens upon his human village and reconnects with its inhabitants, including his widowed mother. Continuing to maintain a relationship with the jungle, adventures follow.

Sinekatalog’s take

A colourful adventure of a boy raised by wolves, shot with lavish jungle sets and a storybook sense of wonder. Some effects and acting choices feel dated, but the spirit of adventure survives. A pleasant family option for fans of vintage spectacle.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
