Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe statues in the jungle set are modeled after the board game pieces in the original Jumanji (1995).
- GoofsAs in many other movies, when the characters fall from the cliff into the water, they appear almost completely dry hardly two minutes later.
While this is normally a continuity problem, in this case the characters are inside a video game which does not completely follow real-world continuity. This was explicitly shown earlier when they experienced a 'cut scene'.
- Quotes
[Professor Oberon gets eaten by a hippo]
Moose Finbar: You better go in there and save her!
Dr. Smolder Bravestone: I'm not gonna get in there, you get in there!
Moose Finbar: I got a backpack on! You don't get in water with a backpack, everybody knows that.
- Crazy creditsPart of the closing credits appears in the explorer's map of Jumanji given to players at the beginning of the game.
- Alternate versionsThere are two versions available, the theatrical cut at 1 hr. 59 min. and a home video release labeled "Bonus Content," which runs 2 hr. 16 min.

Featured review
No idea why it took me 2 years to watch it
It's good. I had no idea what to expect in all honest. I am not huge fans of other movies by these actors, but this really worked. You could see the great chemistry between them all and it paid off.
What I liked: I enjoyed how it didn't dither about at the beginning and got right into the action. Jack Black especially was brilliant and hilarious! All the actors/actresses were great but Jack Black stood out. Good mix of action and comedy throughout. I was on the edge of my seat (metaphorically) wanting them to escape the game.
Negatives: not many to be honest, couple of scenes were slightly cringe, but not off putting. Same logic goes for a couple of scenes which felt dragged out.
I think people need to forget about this being a remake of a classic film and treat it as a separate movie altogether. If you start comparing the 2 that's when it goes wrong.
Ps.. Karen Gillan. Marry me please?
Worth watching and will be going cinema for 2nd instalment.
