Christina Newland iNews.co.uk Jungleland is a likeable film, but a somewhat lightweight one. Rated: 3/5 Sep 23, 2024 Full Review Clarisse Loughrey Independent (UK) Here is a world of seedy gangsters and flame-hearted girls, with a plot that slowly unravels with each increasingly implausible turn. Rated: 2/5 Dec 5, 2020 Full Review Simran Hans Observer (UK) Neon-lit diners, lonely service stations and empty parking lots are straight out of an Edward Hopper painting in this handsome, gloomy drama. Rated: 3/5 Nov 30, 2020 Full Review Victoria Luxford City AM A road movie is about enjoying the time you spend with characters, and in that sense Jungleland is a trip worth taking. An understated exploration of brotherly love and broken dreams, it stands out in a crowded weight class. Rated: 4/5 Feb 28, 2022 Full Review Chris Mello In Review Online Even the few-and-far-between fight scenes are so bog-standard as to convey no visceral thrill whatsoever ... simply another lifeless piece of a clichéd whole. Jun 5, 2021 Full Review Brian Gill Mad About Movies Podcast Jungleland avoids most of the traps and tropes you'd expect a movie like this to fall into, allowing Hunnam and O'Connell to soar. I'm very excited to see what director Max Winkler will do next. Rated: A Feb 10, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Arya W As one of the 3 stars of the movie I cannot give it a bad review. (in the still in the bus station, I am the uncaring blur in the background) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/27/24 Full Review Victoria F Great film. Character-driven, and lit up with a full-range, heart-wrenching performance by Charlie Hunnam. Excellent acting and directing. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/06/24 Full Review Bunk M "Lion" is the Pride, but Stanley scrapes and claws for every star here, hanging on like his windpant's waistband. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/22/23 Full Review dan k Great chemistry between the three main characters, the relationship between the brothers is very believable. Not enough character depth so you find yourself not rooting for them as much as much as you could be. It's a shame really, if the fight scenes were better and the story didn't have too many holes in it Jungleland would be a solid four star film Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Tough, gritty, beautifully acted and heartwarming in its brutality Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review toby h Jungleland is a heartfelt bromance roadtrip movie. It feels familiar with ideas and the grittiness take from elsewhere. However, it'll keep you glued for all twelve rounds, though it's not for quite a knockout. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
