Jungle 2 JungleJungle 2 Jungle is a 1997 Disney comedy film starring Tim Allen, Martin Short and Sam Huntington. Plot Michael Cromwell (Allen) is a self-absorbed, successful commodities broker living in New York city. Wanting to marry his new fiancee, he needs to obtain a final divorce from his first wife, Patricia (JoBeth Williams), who left him some years earlier. Patricia now lives with a primitive tribe in the Amazon jungle. Cromwell travels there to get her signature on divorce papers, but, upon arriving, discovers he has a 13 year-old son, Mimi-Siku (Huntington). Cromwell attempts to bond with Mimi-Siku in his brief stay with the tribe, but against his protests, is coerced into bringing Mimi-Siku back with him to New York so he can "prove himself a man" (his tribe's chief gave him the task of getting fire from the Statue of Liberty). As Cromwell attempts to adapt Mimi-Siku to city life, hilarity insues while Mimi-Siku continually reverts to his primitive ways. Mimi-Siku and the daughter, Karen (Leelee Sobieski), of Cromwell's partner, Richard Kempster (Short), fall in love. They engage in a short, harmless romance, but it causes distress for Kempster's family who fears Mimi-Siku may harm or deflower her (implied). Eventually, Mimi-Siku, Kempster's family and Cromwell succeed in defeating a gang of Russian mobsters intent on maming Kempster (incorrectly thinking he has cheated him on a business deal). This event brings the families together and allays the Kempster's fears regarding Mimi-Siku's nature. Shortly after this event, Mimi-Siku returns to the Amazon jungle, disheartened with his trip to New York and his inability to obtain "real fire" from the Statue of Liberty. Shortly after his return, however, Cromwell and Kempster's family join him there for a vacation. It's also implied that Mimi-Siku's and Karen's teen romance resumes. External link *
