The narrative wasn't particularly groundbreaking, but the creative details infused throughout the film simulating an actual video game were quite clever. The comedy wasn't entirely crude like a lot of comedies these days yet still completely hysterical, the visual effects were just cartoonish enough to walk the line between fun and convincing, and the script had a couple of great moments that the fantastic cast absolutely capitalizes on. Yes, the four leads were casted perfectly and it felt like most of them - maybe save for Kevin Hart - had a hoot playing against type. I did feel that the villain was a bit of a let down though, but I digress.
Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle was exactly what you would expect it to be - an entertainingly silly reboot of a beloved film you didn't think you needed. Comparisons will be inevitable, but as a standalone film, this was surprisingly good. I had a smile on my face the whole time.
