Jake Kasdan's Latest movie Jumanji got released in the last of December and it's still popular among my folks. I'd like to take some time and appreciate this movie that I have just seen only cause one of my friends just suggested it to me. I just watched the movie and it was not so bad, it's very great. As you all know that it's a sequel to the first film which was released back in 1995. This movie received a 76% rating on rotten tomatoes and usually receiving around 3-4 stars on most critics review.

Neil Soans from Times Of India says

A thoroughly enjoyable holiday film that makes the most of its charming cast.

Sandie Angulo Chen of Common Sense Media said

This crowd-pleasing reboot may not be earth-shatteringly good, but it benefits from its stars' irresistible comedic and action charm.

Well in my opinion it is a very good and funny movie. It just touches every aspect that a movie can have and also in a funny way, but there is something missing. This movie does not quite exactly explain about itself and leave the audience to just think about all the paradox and time shifting phenomenon but this movie is indeed very fast as the director fills in on to many things but sometimes everything goes just too smooth. There are many scenes that are too straight forward and without any quest for adventure or something the end goal is presented to the crowd on a platter, this is sometimes funny in it's own way but when this keeps happening in a repetitive manner then it looks kinda odd!

Moreover there seems to be very little reference to the old sequel JUMANJI which was released way back in 1995. There is only two specific references related to the previous one but man this movie is awesome.

There are so many fun moments including all the characters and it's a very fun story focusing mainly on the main four characters of the game and after one hr they introduce a MISSING PIECE (or a new member) who thinks that he has only spent six months in the game but I told ya, TIME PARADOX happens in this world and jumanji does not gives a clarification to why it happens and even what happens. Maybe the movie wants it's fans to just dive in and give it a little thought to figure somethings out, or maybe it's the opposite but we will never know as there might not be a third sequel for this movie as no one has declared a third sequel for this movie and make JUMANJI a movie sequel franchise.

Never-the-less this movie is great and I'm sure that you will die laughing while watching this movie. If you are a guy like me I do not recommend watching this in the movie theatres cause this is not worth it, wait for the digital blu-ray and get that sound surround ready to just take the feel of this awesome adventure.
