The only reason to watch these new Jumanji movies is to see Karen Gillan run around in her skimpy Lara Croft costume and this sequel delivers. It turns out that never "gets old." Much better than the 90s Robin Williams movie.  |

The only "JUMANJI" Movie that I myself have ever seen is actually the Robin Williams Movie which I thought was okay.

Karen Gillan was the only reason I watched the last one, but I ended up liking it much more than I expected. I will be watching the new one as well.

 Why do they have to whore themselves out like that ? It is really sad.

Why do they have to whore themselves out like that ? It is really sad. Tasteful modeling isn't whoreing or sad but the answer to why do they do it is the title of this James Brown classic...

A lot of actresses do sexy magazine photo shoots willingly, and usually have approval over pictures released as well as collaborate with the photographer in addition to getting a fat paycheck. I don't think, say, Jessica Chastain would do a shoot like this if she wasn't comfortable with it and didn't know what she was doing or getting into.  |

Compared to its predecessor, JUMANJI PART 3: THE NEXT LEVEL has an even less interesting villain (this one doesn't even appear in scenes without the heroes, and for some reason has a stats menu despite not being an avatar), but it contains around the same amount of laughs and surprises. Jack Black, Kevin Hart and Karen Gillan's performances are even better. Danny DeVito isn't in the movie much (physically, at least), but he still manages to steal the show. While the titular video game isn't meant to be played with unless you enter it, it's still modeled after a real one, so we have judge it as such. Well, why have an ostrich run towards the heroes like it knew they were there, stop and stand still? Mouse (the zoologist) says that ostriches will attack if they feel threatened. You don't need to be an expert to figure that out. Anyway, what if you don't do anything to the ostrich? It seems like the game expect you to do something. Later, we see that even a horse is an avatar. How could it work as a playable character? The whole point of this franchise is that the game forces people to play and indirectly teaches each and every one of them a life lesson. Spencer, having learned to have more self-confidence, willingly goes back to the game. Bad (writing) idea. His friends Martha and Fridge go to get him. Madison goes to recruit Alex. Yeah, the guy who spent 20 years trapped there doesn't even hesitate! Come on! Remember that she liked him and she got over it a little too fast to be believable? Here, there are opportunities to show that crush again, but it's not even alluded. At least not on purpose. You see, she goes to his house in the middle of the night and he lets her in. Doesn't Alex's wife have any questions? How does Alex explain how he and Madison know each other? When they both enter the game, Madison arrives as the aforementioned horse avatar... and Alex rides her. The 4 of them have to go through another adventure, even though they don't have to learn anything, so I'm not sure why the game is allowing them to play. Eddie & Milo (2 old men who get dragged into the game with our protagonists) find the time to talk about their issues while walking, driving and riding animals. They even stop at one point to have a confrontation. So... how come nobody has a proper talk with Spencer about his decision until the climax? When that finally happens, a straightforward conversation with Martha is all it takes to open his eyes. Unlike JUMANJI PARTS 1 & 2, this feels like it could've easily happened in the real world without any supernatural intervention. When they leave the game, his friends don't seem to be mad at Spencer, even though they're entitled to. Why don't they destroy the game to make sure this doesn't happen again? Whenever a sequel repeats a joke, it can be accepted if it's treated like a running gag in a TV show, i.e. applying it to a different context in each episode in order to feel fresh. That's what happens to most of the jokes here, except for the fight scene with Big Mountain's cover of BABY, I LOVE YOUR WAY. That one feels like it's exactly the same scene, so it comes off as lazy. 6/10 ------------------------------------- You can read comments of other movies in my blog. |
