Critics Consensus

Daniel Radcliffe does right by Jungle's fact-based story with a clearly committed performance, even if the film around him doesn't always match his efforts.

Ben Sachs

Chicago Reader

By presenting the characters as psychological abstractions, McLean makes the story feel universal. He wants you to ask whether you'd be capable of surviving an experience like this.

Time Out

More time could have been spent developing the bond between the men, but ultimately this is quite gripping: a weepie bromance. You don't see one of those every day.

The changing dynamics of their friendship - especially Jackson's impressive portrayal of a physically depleted adventurer whose polished demeanour gradually unravels - give Jungle's second act a particularly vibrant hum of tension...

Substream Magazine

Daniel Radcliffe is precisely the presence who can make a film like Jungle work, and the film largely succeeds by being carried on his shoulders.

Rated: 3.5/5

A gripping story, well told, with fine performances. Great locations, superb photography. Nail biting action. Are audiences jaded? It doesn’t seem to be getting the credit it deserves here.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

The performances are pretty good, but some of the shots are overly dramatic and drawn out.
