It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Katy Perry is transformed from little wallflower in the shadow of her overbearing husband to Queen of the Jungle in this delightful jungle epic shot in 2013 for her song ROAR. After the tiger gets rid of the domineering male influence, she scampers off into the jungle, with torn clothing, and has a confrontation with a crocodile's big jaws snapping shut as she tries sipping water from a pool. Things look hectic, especially with all those eyes peering out at her in the dark, but she manages to survive. She swings from jungle vines, befriends the animals, and must have conquered a leopard for she wears his skin. There is, of course, still the tiger...She starts off looking quite drab and uninspiring and then transforms into this super-confident soon-to-be jungle queen.Irresistibly cute and sure brought Katy Perry much recognition.
And the best is she does not even have to take part in "I am a Celebrity..." for that title. This is the music video for the singer's 2013 successful hit "Roar". It runs for 4.5 minutes and has Perry in a jungle-appropriate outfit while she meets all kinds of wild animals such as spider, tigers, elephants and many more. She wins a roaring contest against the tiger and that's why she is queen of the jungle now. The music video is okay all in all, it's nothing outstanding visually or story-wise, but it's not bad either. The song is pretty catchy as are most of Katy Perry's works. And of course, she looks again as hot as it gets. Early on, we see her boyfriend, but they could have left him out completely I guess, added nothing for me and I guess they picked an unknown actor, so he won't take away any attention from Perry. Still, she shines much brighter than him anyway. All in all, a good watch, a good listen and a solid overall result. Recommended.
