A magical board game unleashes a world of adventure on siblings Peter (Bradley Pierce) and Judy Shepherd (Kirsten Dunst). While exploring an old mansion, the youngsters find a curious, jungle-themed game called Jumanji in the attic. When they start playing, they free Alan Parrish (Robin Williams), who's been stuck in the game's inner world for decades. If they win Jumanji, the kids can free Alan for good -- but that means braving giant bugs, ill-mannered monkeys and even stampeding rhinos!

Critics Consensus

A feast for the eyes with a somewhat malnourished plot, Jumanji is an underachieving adventure that still offers a decent amount of fun for the whole family.

It's mostly a well made movie despite not the best ending. Critics called Jumanji too scary for kids. Which was their weak excuse to not like this movie.

Jumanji feels like a family classic. This movie is perfectly charming even if it stays in the shallow end.

The technology both overwhelms the human cast and stalls the narrative drive. Even Williams's manic energy finally flags.

The humans are wooden, the computer-animals have that floating, jerky gait of animated fauna.

The filmmakers... re-create safari beasts with wizardly finesse but can’t think of anything to do with them but zap you.

If board games are your bag, I submit a hot night of Parcheesi might be more fun.

With plenty of laughs, action-packed excitement, great music (by James Horner), spectacular sets, and inspirational themes, this film is an absolutely winning adventure.
