Ion T Nov 28 This was a fun movie to watch with my mom on Thanksgiving Eve. It’s got witty humor with Kevin Hart always being a doofus, freaking out over everything and the fabletics ads couldn’t save his unathleticism. I would give this movie a 8.2/10. Fun movie for a family.

See more Kevin P Oct 3 A really fun and hilarious soft reboot sequel that pays homage to the original while doing its own thing with having all these A-List celebrities play against type with some great action set pieces. I like how the movie opens where the last film left off with the board game washing up on the beach. It's cool that the board game adapts to the times by turning itself into a video game, which allows the film to have so much fun satirizing video game mechanics and action film tropes, such as the limited exposition dumping dialogue of NPC's or the unrealistic outfits and "dance-fighting" combat of modern female action leads. The film starts off okay with your run-of-the-mill teen story that you've already seen a million times. The selection of detention students feels pretty sugarcoated with how melodramatic the school counselor's discount Breakfast Club speech sounds. The gym class reasoning being the lamest of the group (seriously, does anyone in this school commit actual misdemeanors?). But thankfully, it's brief and serves its purpose well for the payoff of the characters switching bodies in the Jumanji world. The bulk of the movie's comedy comes from seeing all these A-List celebrities playing against type, like Dwayne Johnson's character acting like an incredibly awkward and timid dork who's always whining, or Kevin Hart's character getting possessed by frequent zoology trivia (as a wildlife post-grad, I can heavily relate). Jack Black easily steals the show as the valley girl. He starts off cliche with mostly phone jokes, but he soon gets better material and his subtle mannerisms are so freaking funny to the point that after a while you do buy that he's being possessed by a teenage Instagram influencer wannabe.
