'Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle' Review Roundup: Sequel Serves Up Mixed Opinions

"Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle," the sequel to the 1995 film starring the late Robin Williams, is now out in theaters and critics have a lot to say about it. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Kevin Hart, Jack Black and Karen Gillan teamed up for the new flick, which now features the Jumanji board game as a video game instead, but while some reviewers think the star power is just the icing on the cake, others don't even think the big names save the movie. Here's what critics are saying about "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle." "'Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle,' a sequel no one asked for to the 1995 Robin Williams original as well as the animated TV series, has enough star power and comic zest to deliver a fun time at the movies. OK, just barely, but we'll take what we can get. "This updated'Jumanji' can't outrun the clichés on its tail, but its puppy-eagerness to please is hard to resist." "Although the action sequences are a bit rote and it always feels like the movie could go further with its satire of video games, the film succeeds thanks to its outstanding cast who have excellent comedic chemistry.
