Jungle; The Movie

With the lead role, Daniel Radcliffe, aka Harry Potter, a movie named Jungle was released later in the last year. With a tagline stating, “nature has only one law- survival”, although the movie is based on a true story, this movie doesn’t give it’s viewers a complete insight on what actually happened in real life. Jungle received mixed reviews and almost good IMDb ratings but when it comes to the viewers, many have appreciated Daniel’s acting. However, the true story of this movie is sure to give anyone goosebumps. “I have to tell you, usually movies are bigger than life. This movie is smaller than life. Everything you see is on a smaller scale than what really happened,” said Yossi.

Yossi became one such less known example.

It is greed and shortsightedness that create the illusion of scarcity.” This is one of the man’s famous quote and we find suitable to be placed at the very end.
