Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle














LANDON ***
This one surprised me.  From a distance, it appears to be a cheap-knockoff of the original film, but upon viewing, it turns out that's a pretty fun film.  Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Karen Gillan, and Jack Black all work really well off of each other, convincingly portraying teenagers stuck inside a video game.  It's funny, exciting, and, again, fun.  I give this one a solid recommendation.

LOGAN **1/2
To keep this one brief, I was only mildly entertained.  It was a better film than I originally anticipated, and it is well-casted, but I simply didn't find the movie that funny, and upon working it out in my head, I think they could've easily done this movie without the title "Jumanji."  I didn't like it as much as Landon did, but it is still a good movie when you look past the absurd concept.

BANGERANG SCORE: **1/2
