Leave your thoughts about Jungle 2 Jungle.
| Miami HeraldChristine DolenBeautifully designed and well-crafted, Jungle 2 Jungle is arguably the equal of the French original and perhaps even better, thanks to Tim Allen. |
| Palo Alto WeeklyLeonard SchwarzIf you care at all about surface plausibility, adults who act like adults, or emotions that exist anywhere other than in manipulative movies, spare yourself and spare your family. |
| Boxoffice MagazineChristine JamesThe film is well-paced and warm-hearted, with uniform chuckles. |
| Chicago ReaderLisa AlspectorThe humor is often predictable--minor characters are stereotyped only to be demeaned for easy laughs--but the movie impressively fulfills its larger purpose of making you look at your culture's conventions as such. |
| Internet ReviewsSteve RhodesWith the dearth of kids' movies, it's good to see one even if it's only mildly funny. |
| Common Sense MediaCommon Sense Media EditorsSilly farce about a jungle boy in New York. |
| CNN.comCarol BucklandJungle2Jungle is adequate family fare, not much more. |
| Boston GlobeJay CarrTim Allen doesn’t do anything new in Jungle2Jungle, but he’s got that Allen-via-Disney persona operating at maximum efficiency. |

| Washington PostKevin McManusThe funny moments come and go quickly and the bland ones drag on too long. |
