Should the Avengers be reined in and subjected to stronger fed- eral oversight? Among the gang, some vote yes. Others, notably Captain America (Chris Evans), refuse to comply with United Nations oversight. This causes a rift and leads rather neatly to the internal strife and intramural civil war of the title. Nothing in "Civil War" takes your breath away. But almost everything in it works on its own prescribed terms, and the quiet moments register. - Michael Phillips

"The Jungle Book" *** PG, 1:51, drama I have a hard time loving any movie dominated by ultra-crisp, photorealistic animation designed to look real, not animated. That sort of realism often looks and feels misguided, slightly clinical. And it's a substantial caveat when it comes to Disney's new live- (ish) action version of "The Jungle Book' That said, the movie's pretty good. Director Jon Favreau's voice cast for the animals is tiptop, from Bill Murray's sloth bear, Babo, to ldris Elba's adversar- ial tiger, Shere Khan. There's a real person on screen too; Neel Sethi plays Mowgli.
