Rambles about the wonderful world of wrestling.
Some decisions just make sense, and it is impossible to go through the cast list of The Jungle Book without thinking, ‘damn, that makes sense.’ From Bill Murray as Baloo to Christopher Walken as King Louie it just works. The question is can Jon Favreau’s attempt at a ‘live-action’ (in reality the only live-action element is Neel Sethi as Mowgli) Disney classic live up to such an illustrious cast?
If there is one thing that can always be said about Bill Murray films, it is that they contain Bill Murray, a fact that instantly improves them by around 50%. His most recent role, as the Vincent in Theodore Melfi’s St Vincent, see’s him being particularly wonderfully Bill Murray, as the gruff, prone to a drink elderly gentlemen, who takes up the role of father figure to the young protagonist Oliver (Jaeden Lieberher).
