After seen ' Junglee', I admit that Bollywood movie never reached at standard of Hollywood movie, even it directed by Hollywood director. Chuck Russell tried his best but he doesn't succeed to overcome from Bollywood saga. Yes, ' Junglee' is a typical Bollywood movie by Hollywood director Chuck Russel. There is nothing new in story. Movie is only watchable for Elephants and electrified action from Vidyut Jamawal. I thought that the movie would be same as 'The Protector' starring Tony Jaa, but it is far different. As me it could be made remake of it and could be better. Thanks to director / music director that there are no lazy boring love songs here. Acting by Vidyut is ok, but action is super. Leading lady is only for fill the gap of leading female. Atul Kulkarni is perfect but at last he looses his tempo and looks helpless. Vidyut's father is totally miscast. For such a martial artist son, father should be strong and impressive. Another miscast is Makrand Deshpande, the teacher should have perfect and believable. Direction neither is just okaying, not memorable nor twists side. As suggested by me just watch for elephants (especially for kids in their summer vacation) and Vidyut Jamawal's action. One more plus point is that the camerawork. It is excellent to catch the beauty of natures like mountains, woods, and lakes and of course about elephants too!
A rare movie from Bollywood on elephants after ' Haathi Mere Saathi', Main aur mera Hathi and 'Sufed Hathi'. Good try...and best message that ' Love animals and love natures'.!!!
