Overall Entertaining

Rating: 7/10 (20 June 1999)

Disney's latest entry is full of its usual breath taking visuals and great vocal performances. I liked: the 3D swinging sequences, Kala's rescue of the human infant, the overall character developement.
Disney did well creating the main plot of a hero trying to figure out where he belongs, but the addition of the villianous Clayton seems thrown in unnecessarily, Rosie O'Donell's Terk character is far more annoying than Jar Jar could ever be. So the big problem here is that they have a good serious story that they try to mix in with "the usual comic relief in a Disney film" I don't need a good story that all of a sudden has Elephants talking about how pirhana's are native to South America and other antics that just don't seem to fit this story.
Kids will love this, Adults will probably enjoy it too. But mind you this, From Little Mermaid to Mulan, the past Disney films have depicted 1 - 3 deaths in each of them, TARZAN has 6 deaths in it, and while I have never read the original story by Edgar Rice Burroughs, I found Disney's version to be very predictable. Beauty and the Beast it ain't, but if you can watch a movie without being so nit picky you should be able to enjoy this film.
