AT (1676 KP) rated Jumanji: The Next Level (2019) in Movies
Feb 22, 2020
You still can't even come close to the original Jumanji movie, but as a sequel to the modern version, it wasn't as bad as some people claimed it was. It's silly and cheesy, but the characters were in a video game. I thought they did alright for a second round of this movie. Lots of jokes about being old and not really understanding the game situation that they were in, but the jokes made sense for the characters. A lot of the same types of peril situations, but it was the same game that they went back into. Overall, it was still a fun movie to watch, if you enjoyed the first, or the premise of the story.

Video game based movies have been mostly problematic since their inception. Finding the perfect mix of pleasing fans of the source material while also pleasing the core movie audience is not something to be taken lightly. Pokemon Detective Pikachu came about as close as any comers in recent memory.
There are definitely some things present that will be more noticeable if you are familiar with the Pokemon series, but not knowing that information will not hinder your ability to enjoy the movie at all.
My kids are huge fans of this movie and I have watched it a couple of times without them present. Give it a go, you might be surprised.
