Four high school kids discover an old video game console and are drawn into the game's jungle setting, literally becoming the adult avatars they chose. What they discover is that you don't just play Jumanji -- you must survive it. To beat the game and return to the real world, they'll have to go on the most dangerous adventure of their lives, discover what Alan Parrish left 20 years ago, and change the way they think about themselves -- or they'll be stuck in the game forever.

Audience Says

This reboot won’t blow your mind, but it’s an easy, funny, and action-packed summer flick made much better than it needed to be by standout performances from Jack Black and Kevin Hart.

The myriad of ways this sequel could have ended in disaster were obvious and ripe. Nevertheless, against all odds, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle is a good movie.

Expanding the world of a concept is great! But the story that Welcome to the Jungle is expanded for is yet another teen-self-actualization movie, the kind of thing we already received this year.

Even with a simple plot, Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle is so flat-out hysterical that it’s a complete joy to watch. The film embraces the silly concept of being sucked into a video game, but never insults the audience’s intelligence.

Dwayne Johnson is a jungle VIP in this entertaining sequel to the much-loved Robin Williams caper.

Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle finds a smart way to modernize the original by turning the board game into a video game. The avatar concept, character strengths and weaknesses, limited lives, NPCs, and level-style structure give the movie a fresh comedic engine while still respecting the basic Jumanji idea. Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Jack Black, and Karen Gillan have terrific chemistry, and the body-swap joke works because each actor fully commits to playing the teenager trapped inside them. Black is probably the comic standout, making his self-absorbed teenage girl role funny, detailed, and oddly sweet. The movie is energetic, funny, and easy to enjoy, with enough personality to feel like a successful reboot rather than a hollow cash grab. Bobby Cannavale’s villain is fairly generic, but the cast and concept keep the adventure entertaining.

Secondo il mio parere è un film molto ironico e ďazione che riesce comunque a parlare approfonditamente dei legami tra gli amici e dell'importanza dell'amicizia. Vorrei far notare anche le notevoli doti dei due attori principali Jack Black e The Rock i quali hanno avuti ruoli molto difficili da interpretare dato che erano dei personaggi che non affideresti a quei due attori ma nonostante ciò li hanno interpretati molto bene riuscendo ad essere molto divertenti.

A good idea (4 high schoolers in detention get sucked into a video game as various characters with 3 lives each) well cast with good special effects. And I've been crushing on Karen Gillan ever since.
