Neither geared towards children nor perhaps any particular audience, despite finally being released, Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle still seems in limbo.

Beautiful Boy – Recap/ Review (with Spoilers)
Beautiful Boy has wonderful performances that compensate for a story that didn’t translate well to the big screen.

Jefe is comical, but as for the whole redemption that is part of Netflix’s synopsis? I don’t know about that.

While, like most book adaptations, in losing some of the fat the film loses some of what made the book great, what isn’t lost is the key message The Hate U Give pushed.

While the message is clear and strong in Nappily Ever After, the story, by comparison, is a tad weak.
