This movie is incredibly boring and generic. The trailers made it look like it would be really funny, but instead its just a very generic predictable teen movie with no depth and a very thin plot.

The trailers made it look like it would be really funny, but instead its just a very generic predictable teen movie with no depth and a very thin plot. Disappointing, as it has 3 brilliant comedy stars in it and a great comedy plot setup. Unfortunately, the film doesn't do anything with it and instead its a quick cash grab using the reputation of the original Jumanji film.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. All wrong,Like its 1995 predecessor (which itself was based on the 1981 children's book of the same name), the new Jumanji movie will revolve a board game that sucks the players into its insane, action-packed world. However, this time around, the protagonists will be four students playing the game while in detention. Once within, they'll be represented by adult avatars, and their mission will be to find a jewel. The movie's main cast includes Dwayne Johnson as Dr. Smolder Bravestone, Kevin Hart as Moose Finbarr, Karen Gillan as Ruby Roundhouse, Jack Black as Professor Shelly Oberon, Ser'Darius Blane as Anthony "Fridge" Johnson, Nick Jonas and more.… Expand

Great cast and some decent special effects, but the movie's script falls completely flat.

Most of the scenes don't lead into each other in any meaningful way, characters don't make any decisions at all(rather the game decides for them), and the story proceeds in a completely predictable fashion. Return the macguffin, avoid the obstacles. Without a meaningful villain or any genuine character motivations, the movie ends up feeling like two hours of filler. If it wasn't for the charismatic cast this probably would have put me to sleep. Would rather watch someone play a video game.… Expand

I've never hated all the characters in a film before this one. Wow.

They're so dumb. So vapid. So narcissistic.

It makes the movie worse than it could have been had the characters had any meaningfully redeemable qualities in them.

Matt Kerr’s review published on Letterboxd :
This film is a set of almost's. Its almost funny enough to get a laugh out more than a couple of times during the movie. Its almost fun enough to allow me to see it as a guilty pleasure. Its almost so bad that its good, but it never quite crosses that line into complete nonsense.

Other than that, it also manages to lack any of the charm and character that set the original as one of the better mid-90's blockbusters. For example, take the villains; think of how memorable Van Pelt was in the original Jumanji film; in contrast, is there anything the villain in this film does that is in any way memorable at all?!

I will award some credit for some of the funnier moments, and for the sheer inability of this film to take itself very seriously at all, which is 100% what this film should be doing more of - silly is not a bad thing, and neither necessarily is not asking anything of its audience; however the humour never quite lives up to itself to justify its own silliness. The action almost does, and if the ending had went out with a little more of a bang rather than a piffle, I would have possibly given more credit and rated this film a little higher. With a few differences, given the potential in the premise, this film could have been a lot of fun, but as it is its a bit of a disappointment, which is not ideal when potential expectations are low to begin with.… Expand

I was expecting a fun action adventure movie, but wasn't prepared for how bad this movie actually is. Unfunny, tedious, and cringeworthy, without a single redeeming feature. Easily the worst movie I've seen in 10 years.
