Product Description

America's favorite entertainer, Tim Allen, is at it again as commodities broker Michael Cromwell, king of the Wall Street jungle. With money, power, and an engagement to a beautiful fashion designer, he has it all. But when Michael travels to the Amazon to finalize the divorce from his first wife -- a jungle doctor -- she reveals that he also has a blowdart-shooting, giant-spider-carrying, 13-year-old son, Mimi-Siku. Cultures clash when Mimi is entrusted by his tribal chief to bring back fire from the Statue of Liberty. Back home in New York, Michael must somehow convince Mimi that pets are not for eating and it's not nice to chase people with your killer spider. But when Michael's partner (Martin Short) crosses a Russian mob boss in a coffee bean deal, Mimi and Michael must use all their jungle skills in a hysterical father/son rescue. Now you can bring home the hilarious new hit comedy adventure from the studio that brought you HOME IMPROVEMENT and the box office smash THE SANTA CLAUSE.

Customer Reviews

Jungle to unbelievable
Jungle to Jungle is a modern version of Little Indian Big City. (see my review). Although this film is funnier, better acted(Tim Allen rocks!), and more entertaining, I didn't feel the boy(Sam Hungington) that played Mimi was born in the jungle at all. Don't get me wrong, he is a wonderful actor and the girls will love his bod, although he did a great job he didn't come across on film as believable. In Little Indian Big City the boy was believable. Sam Huntington spoke as well as a Harvard lawyer and jungle boys don't speak that well since they told us straight out that he couldn't read.
This film takes place in New York City. Little Indian Big City takes place in Paris. Mimi climbs the Statue of Liberty, pins the neighbors pigeon against the wall, cooks his dad's friends prize fish and yes, gets the girl.
The weird thing about this film I think: A half naked boy walks down the street in New York and nothin happens to him? Unbelievable.
I liked the film because of Tim Allen and Sam Huntington. Allen is funny and Huntington is, well.. see the film. You will like it.

wonderful family movie
TIM ALLEN DOES AS USUAL A WONDERFUL PERFORMANCE. THIS IS A GREAT FAMILY MOVIE UNLIKE SOME OF THE SEX AND VIOLENT FILLED MOVIES OF TODAY. IGNORE TH BAD RATINGS SOME CUSTOMERS GIVE THIS MOVIE. IT IS A BREATH OF FRESH AIR. ITS NICE TO BE ABLE TO WATCH A MOVIE THAT THE ENTIRE FAMILY CAN ENJOY.

Another great film gets Panned and Scanned on DVD
Unlike most people, I have been looking forward to the DVD release of "Jungle 2 Jungle" for quite some time. When it was finally announced as coming to DVD in Region 1 this October, I was thrilled. I was hoping for some nice extras and a solid anamorphic widescreen transfer. But alas, Jungle 2 Jungle falls victim to one of a boatload of bad decisions by Disney's DVD department. This DVD will be Pan & Scan only. And barebones. It's a complete shame that Disney doesn't understand that people who like certain movies and wish to own them do not wish to own them cut up for the size of soon-to-be-outdated TVs. It was widescreen on laserdisc, but an even better alternative is to go with the European DVD versions which are widescreen. The Region 2 and Region 4 DVD releases are both barebones, but the movie is in anamorphic widescreen and not cut up. After several delays, Jungle 2 Jungle finally makes its American DVD debut, and yet it falls short of what has already been released elsewhere in the world a few years ago! If you like this movie, you'll pass on this DVD and show Disney that you want all films (no matter what genre) to be in their original aspect ratio (be it Academy Ratio as with classic films or Widescreen as it is for the great majority of modern cinema) on DVD. What a letdown!
