Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle

Previous 2 parts were much better story wise, however effects are good in this part.

The 90's Game is back and got even more adventurous !!

When four teenagers in detention discover an old video game console with a game they've never heard of, they are immediately thrust into the game's jungle setting, into the bodies of their avatars, played by Dwayne Johnson, Jack Black, Kevin Hart, and Karen Gillan. What they discover is that you don't just play Jumanji -Jumanji plays you. They'll have to go on the most dangerous adventure of their lives, or they'll be stuck in the game forever.

In the age of Hollywood's obsession with franchise-building and reboots, the idea for a sequel to 1995's 'Jumanji' came across as another eye-roll worthy project. However, the combination of charming actors Dwayne Johnson, Jack Bl...

The effects have improved (as you'd hope they would over the course of 22 years), but Welcome to the Jungle didn't really do much for me. It completely lacks the charm of the original movie, but also the worldly scope of the animated series. I sat there patiently as weak joke after weak joke bounced off of me ineffectually, but the person I watched it with seemed to be having a great time, so maybe I'm just dead inside?

Final rating: - Definitely not for me, but I sort of get the appeal.

Eh. This was so-so. I like the rock so ill give this a 6 out of 10. The original was WAYYYYY better.

Entertaining adventure/fantasy with a little welcome depth

Four high school teens in Atlanta a nerd (Alex Wolff), a muscular football player (Ser'Darius Blain), a shallow hot blonde (Madison Iseman) and a brainy, demure redhead (Morgan Turner) get sucked into a video game and find themselves as avatars a brawny explorer (Dwayne Johnson), his diminutive zoological sidekick (Kevin Hart), a cartologist / palaeontologist (Jack Black) and a martial arts babe (Karen Gillan). Can they get back alive?

Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017) is the third film in the current four-film franchise if you include Zathura: A Space Adventure (2005). It was a surprise hit at the box office and produced an immediate sequel in 2019.

Fun and cool movie, probably better than the original.

Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle surprisingly exceeds the original and all expectations as one of the best, funniest, and most entertaining sequels of all time.

The sequel no one saw coming or expected to light up the box office as it did! Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle is a fun adventure film with hilarious characters that works in every way. I will be honest; I was not a fan of the original movie - it freaked me out as a child. But the new film minimized the horror elements of Jumanji and focused more on adventure and humor. This time instead of a board game, Jumanji has morphed into a video game that sucks its unsuspecting victims into its deadly world. Welcome to the Jungle leans into all the video game tropes with hilarious result...

Love this movie. Better then the original. Honestly this would be fun to do for real. It would be the ultimate gaming experience. The movie is so hilarious.
