Back in the beginning of the summer of 2003 was when I first watched this movie. Then, I used to like it and after that movie I couldn't stop thinking about it. I watched it constantly.
Okay here is the good- Raksha and Bagheera's voice acting is pretty much the best out of the other's. Akela's voice can also be considered okay but not great.
The musical score used in this movie fit so perfectly well. Like the scene with Raksha's death. The powerful music and the mourning for her loss was fantastically captured. The music in the very first cave scene where Mowgli meets the wolves for the first time was superb. The celtic-like music in the background while Bagheera talks to Mowgli about hunting techniques and staring her in the yes was totally brilliant. The upbeat, traditional-like pan flute music was awesome.
Now the bad- In 1998 there were capabilities of adding lip movements to the animals. It would've made that very beginning of the movie with all those animals gathering together a lot more sense.
The voice acting in the comical characters were flat and dull. Sher Khan's lines end up a complete mess. Revenge is a dish best served cold? A dish? Well, how does he know what a dish is anyways? And plus with Tabaqui he mentions ice cream and the rather stupid line "packing heat."
There is no soundtrack album of this movie. Why? Why?
Raksha's funeral-like scene sometimes haunts me. It just does and I don't know why.
Bottom line is this movie is downright selfish and downright stupid for not releasing the soundtrack album. But I give credit to it because of that powerful, haunting scene.
