Our take on Jumanji: The Next Level
Jake Kasdan's 2019 sequel returns the friends to the video-game world of Jumanji, this time to rescue one of their own, only to find the rules have shifted and nothing plays out as expected. Thrust into unfamiliar, unexplored regions of the game, the players must survive fresh hazards and scrambled avatar identities to escape. The film leans on body-swap comedy, big-screen set pieces and the easy rapport of its returning cast, keeping things brisk, funny and broadly appealing. It's a dependable crowd-pleaser for viewers who enjoyed the previous outing and want lighthearted adventure; those hoping for narrative reinvention will find familiar beats dressed up with new twists.
