Back for the new years, guys! Here's to a great 2018.

Today, I want to talk about the sequel to the 1995 Robin Williams lead classic "Jumanji". Dude! When I tell you that, that movie was one of the highlights of my childhood! I had that jaunt on VHS and I played it till it couldnt play no more, literally!

 

So, when I first heard that a direct sequel was coming out to Jumanji AND it was starring The Rock, Kevin Hart, and Jack Black?!?! I was really excited ! I was hopeful.

 

BUT THEN I SAW THE FIRST TRAILER......

and bruh, when I tell you , I was PISSED! I mean PISSED! I was like wtf is this, my G?

 

The thing that I always liked so much about the original movie was that they brought the jungle into the real world. That was so unique and it's what made it so loveable and interesting.


My original thoughts were, "Man, I dont want to see them in the jungle, ef that HIGH KEY".

 

So, now, all that being said? I LOVED The movie. Can it replace the classic? HEAVENS NO.

BUT, I really did enjoy a lot about the movie!

 

As I said, I didnt like the idea of them going to the jungle but after watching it, I think it was really brilliant and unique! It was an adventure movie. Im not even the BIGGEST adventure movie fan, but when I tell you, I LOVED this joint, I LOVED it!

 

It was really dope how it was like a live action video game. They had to go through levels, They had to defeat minions, and ultimately they had to defeat a big boss. It was really cool and funny how they had cut scenes like video games do and how some of the people they met were only pregrammed for certain responses, just like a video game.

 

The chemistry between the actors was great, too. WHEN I TELL YOU JACK BLACK ACTING LIKE A TEENAGE GIRL FOR 90 MINUTES IS EPIC, I MEAN EPIC!!! lol

 

I LOVED how they set up all four of the personalities between the teenage versions of the main character. I didnt see Kevin Hart or The Rock. I saw Spencer and Fridge trapped in their bodies. I have to give credit to all the adult actors for really playing the teenage versions of their "real selves" out so well.

The movie was smart.

 

Nick Jonas even had a nice little role in it! I said ok, getcho coins my bro! lol

 

All in all, I have to say I REALLY Enjoyed the movie. I was going into the movie expecting it to be trash, fr lol so maybe thats why I'm so impressed lol

 

If you have not seen it yet, I def reccomend it! Cant tell if you like it or not until you try it out for yourself!

I give it a 4/5!

Thanks for reading, Peace and much love!
