Movie Haiku:Joyous new version of oft-told tale. The magic of their art allows Disney’s animators to enter territory denied to their predecessors, and show the hero in his boyhood & youth among the (now very verbal) apes, & other jungle critters. Literate script & straightforward songs. Fully enjoyable – no kids required.
