Intense, gripping, stylish and poignant

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Brennan Camacho
Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

This is an entertainment movie that has some wonderful imagination stuff. What can a board of game do to us?? This movie gives an answer- huhhh. Good watch and entertainment.

I remember when JUMANJI first came out back in 1995. I was 14 at the time and much more interested in the books of Stephen King and movies like THE EVIL DEAD than watching a kid's film like this. Now, more than twenty years later, I've finally got around to watching it and I have to say that I'm less than impressed. This is one of the movies that helped usher in the 'CGI adventure' template of the family-friendly Hollywood blockbuster. A couple of kids find a magic boardgame and play it, with the end result that they release a bunch of CGI jungle creatures which rampage around their house. The film has a slick look to it and it doesn't help that the CGI has dated badly over the years, with the monkeys looking particularly bad. The story itself is extremely limited and features some cheesy sentimentalising. There are some funny moments courtesy of Robin Williams, who just about holds things together with his usual brand of madcap high-energy overacting, but this is passable at best.

Zathura: A Space Adventure (2005) is a slightly better version of this because the pace is a lot more frenetic and they have cut out some of the frustrating junk that was in Jumanji. Having said that I thought that this was entertaining after the pointlessly slow start. It could have done with a few trims in the middle and a bit less off the end too. Enjoyable through nostalgia and fun adventure that would be improved through a child's eyes. After a wooden start this improves to be an entertaining fantasy that is a bit too long.

This is the kind of movie that i would still like to watch even after 23 years, its unpredictable , you'll never know what to expect, ending was not what i expected it could have been a bit more exciting , but overall still a classic
