Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle mistakes action for meaning and visual effects as the primary reason to tell a story.

Moreso even than the film's violence and suspense, what sets "Mowgli" apart from other versions of this animal fable is its moral contradictions.

The film reminds you that the jungle is a terrifying place, that nature is cruel, and humans even crueler.

Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle is relentlessly, discordantly bleak. So bleak you almost admire Serkis's audacity. But too often the film stumbles around in its own darkness and falls flat.

"Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle" is a bloody good version of "The Jungle Book." And I do mean bloody.

Serkis throws in too many new elements and, in the process, derails the plot's familiarity and some of its charms.
