Breathtaking color and astonishing cinematography make this a must-see. In addition, the work with live wild animals is impressive. The story, a mashup of several Kipling stories, addresses themes of greed, xenophobia, and mob rule, while showcasing the incredible beauty of the production design. Sabu's natural talent, as well as his physical agility and beauty are utilized perfectly. Also, Rosemary DeCamp, who plays his mother, is as always, a wonderful asset to the picture.
