Cheesy stupid fun and Dwayne Johnson with no shirt.
When I first heard they were going to be making a reboot Baywatch movie all I really wanted was for a Cheesy movie and slow-motion running and that's pretty much what you get with the movie.

My favorite thing about the movie is Zac Efron's character constantly pointing out that they should just go to the cops since you know they are just lifeguards and have no business tracking down drug dealers and thieves.


In the end you get a cheesy reboot and not much else.

WOW
I love Robin Williams so I was hesitant to watch this,,,but my man, Dwayne Johnson, did a good job on this one. It was quite different than the original, although the premise is the same. They jump into a video game and start living it. The best part is the characters that they become and how they learn more about themselves by being those characters. I love the movie, the story line and the ending. Amazing

A sequl (of sorts) that nobody asked for, I have to say that this was better than expected!

Updating the board game of the original to a video game, this sees four teens on detention sucked into the world of Jumanji, taking on the appearance (or avatars) of Dwayne Johnson (perhaps better known to wrestling fans as The Rock), Karen Gillan, Kevin Hart and Jack Black and having to complete the Jumanji test to return to the 'real' world, bondign along the way (as is customary in these types of films) and learning more about themselves and each other.

Fun action movie.
*I won a copy of this Blu-ray in a @Smashbomb giveaway!*

Let me preface this by saying that I think Dwayne Johnson is hilarious when he wants to be, while simultaneously being a great action "hero." Both are on display in this movie. His banter with George is so funny. The action is what it is, and it was done pretty well.

I know this was loosely based on the video game, which I fondly remember playing at the arcade, but I didn't see all that many parallels.

Overall not a bad way to spend a couple of hours!

Gives the audience more of what was great about the first film, but also pushes forward the idea that anybody could inhabit those avatars. (0 more)
The plot felt a little repetitive of the first film (0 more)
Solid sequel
While the plot is a little derivative of the previous film, Next Level is a very worthy sequel to Welcome to the Jungle. It expands the world of Jumanji in a big way, it revisits the characters I grew to care about while introducing new ones, it has a big Easter egg from the original Jumanji from 1996 and it gives Dwayne Johnson, Karen Gillan, Kevin Hart and Jack Black tons of freedom to play around with the avatar characters and do different interpretations of them. Danny Devito and Danny Glover were easily my favorite part of the film...especially when seeing Dwayne and Kevin attempt to act the part. All in all, Next Level is not that big of an improvement over Welcome to the Jungle, but if you like Welcome to the Jungle you'll definitely enjoy this one.
