Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Wordiezett So much average
Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
myname203 I liked it a lot and I will watch it again and again. Is still MUCH better from Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017) I really doubt for the taste in movies of those voters that gave a bit higher points to Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017) for which I have no any mood to watch it again.
daughterof_forest88 I really liked it.I have seen it 4-5 times.Really smart script and Robin Williams so funny.All the challenges and the mystery....Such a nice film...Too bad that Robin Williams couldn't play in the second.I don't like Dwayne Johnson..He is not an actor...Or Jack Black....So cold.Why hollywood makes stupid comedies with stupid actors??Where are the good comedies like death becomes her, jumanji or bridget jones??Not all of us like avengers or xmen.
The Movie Diorama Heck, "classics" like 'The Room' and 'Jack and Jill' have garnered a cult status...yet we all know they are abysmal. Fortunately Jumanji isn't that bad however, there are various stumbles that prevent it from being classed as great. Two young kids come across an ancient and mysterious board game known as Jumanji, where every move they make will affect reality. They must withstand and survive the onslaught of jungle madness and complete the game. If you were a 90s kid (like myself) you would've watched this over and over and over again. "Wow! Look mum, check out the graphics on those monkeys!". "I'm scared of both exotic plants and giant spiders!". "When I grow up, I want to be just like Adam and get stuck in a board game!". The point is, it's a story that evokes imagination and creativity. The fantastical chaos that ensues is one that younger audiences can truly appreciate and become enthralled in. Robin Williams owned the 90s in terms of family flicks and he does so again here. Comedic and yet somewhat emotionally involving. A young Kirsten Dunst and Bradley Pierce gave fun performances, and that's exactly what this film is...fun! I mean what other film would you expect to see giant plants, a lion, monkeys and even a monsoon in your own house? Exactly. For older audiences and viewers who are revisiting the epitome of the 90s, you may view this differently. The narrative and plot are flimsy where character development is minimal and the budget was spent showcasing the visual effects which are now horrendously outdated (seriously, did not age well...). The plot just felt generic somehow, given the peculiar and original concept found within its source material. By the end, you have no emotional connection with any of the characters. Like I said, they are just a means to demonstrate the effects and creativity of the crazy wildlife. A perfectly good family film that really does not amount to anything. I suspect nostalgia plays a vital part in the overwhelming positive opinions.
michaelsoyka This movie was very fun, exciting, action-packed, and adventure-filled for the entire family. We all really enjoyed watching Jumanji and definitely could watch it again
