    Storyline

    Edit
    In a brand-new Jumanji adventure, 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 must 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, to be played by others without break. —Sony Pictures

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The statues in the jungle set are modeled after the board game pieces in the original Jumanji (1995).
    • Goofs
      As in many other movies, when the characters fall from the cliff into the water, they appear almost completely dry hardly two minutes later.

      While this is normally a continuity problem, in this case the characters are inside a video game which does not completely follow real-world continuity. This was explicitly shown earlier when they experienced a 'cut scene'.
    • Quotes

      [Professor Oberon gets eaten by a hippo]

      Moose Finbar: You better go in there and save her!

      Dr. Smolder Bravestone: I'm not gonna get in there, you get in there!

      Moose Finbar: I got a backpack on! You don't get in water with a backpack, everybody knows that.

    • Crazy credits
      Part of the closing credits appears in the explorer's map of Jumanji given to players at the beginning of the game.

    No idea why it took me 2 years to watch it
    It's good. I had no idea what to expect in all honest. I am not huge fans of other movies by these actors, but this really worked. You could see the great chemistry between them all and it paid off.

    What I liked: I enjoyed how it didn't dither about at the beginning and got right into the action. Jack Black especially was brilliant and hilarious! All the actors/actresses were great but Jack Black stood out. Good mix of action and comedy throughout. I was on the edge of my seat (metaphorically) wanting them to escape the game.

    Negatives: not many to be honest, couple of scenes were slightly cringe, but not off putting. Same logic goes for a couple of scenes which felt dragged out.

    I think people need to forget about this being a remake of a classic film and treat it as a separate movie altogether. If you start comparing the 2 that's when it goes wrong.

    Ps.. Karen Gillan. Marry me please?

    Worth watching and will be going cinema for 2nd instalment.
