...Wide-screen action and adventure don't get much more satisfying than this...

Christopher Plummer is Rudyard Kipling in John Huston's peerless version of the classic Kipling story.
Wall Street Journal
Rating: 4/4 --
It's been a long time since there's been an escapist entertainment quite this unabashed and thrilling and fun.

John Huston has been wanting to make this movie for more than 20 years. It was worth the wait.
