I rented the vhs version off his from the libray across from my school. This about Rikki Tikki Tavi only Yankee Doodle Cricket I have never seen. Made way back in the 1970s by famous animator Chuck Jones. Based on a storey from the jungle book. This take place in a house some where in India. At the begining a young moongose is washed out of his burrow. Is found by a family that fines him unconcus. There is some mild violence in this but not gory unlike in some other films from this time such as watership down. The garden is home two of the most evil villians I had seen in a while. They two cobra Naga and Nagina. After encounter the moongose fearing there eggs are in danger. They snake plane to kill the family living in the house think there deaths will cause the moongose to leave. Will there diabolical plane sucide can Riki Tikki Tavi save the family he loves.

I have a 3 year old and I’ve been dying to get this movie for her. My wife has never seen this cartoon to my amazement as I grew up on it. The DVD probably won’t be 16:9, which is disappointing, but I hope the picture quality is up to par. I’ll update this review after I get it.

We used to watch this cartoon as a school function in the late 70′s. It’s good stuff!

Rikki Tikki Tavi is a skillfully written and playfully entertaining story of the rivalry between the two cobras and this adopted mongoose. It is another great short story based upon the works of Rudyard Kipling.
To be sold together with the corny, barely entertaining short cartoon film of little substance or value is disappointing to say the least. If this short film is needing of a complementary story, something more related in story-line or quality ought to have been chosen.
Rikki Tikki Tavi is worth the purchase, but waste not your time on this DVD’s excuse to fill up space.
