Our take on Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle

Jake Kasdan's 2017 adventure comedy reinvents the Jumanji premise for the video-game era. Four mismatched teenagers stuck in detention discover an old console and are pulled into a lush, dangerous jungle, waking up as their wildly different avatars. To escape and survive they must clear the game's perils together, colliding personalities and hidden strengths making the ride as funny as it is thrilling. Expect brisk action, body-swap comedy and a warm message about self-image beneath the spectacle. It's an easy, crowd-pleasing choice for families, teens and anyone wanting light fantasy escapism with laughs. Viewers seeking depth or edge won't find it here, but as breezy popcorn entertainment it delivers.
