Jumanji The Next Level Movie Review

Sequel to Jumanji, a superhit Hollywood franchise that takes an exciting tour of the dangerous world of the jungle Jumanji: The Next Level' More fun, more thrill has returned.Spencer (Alex Wolfe) and his companions Fridge (Serdarius Blain), Martha (Morgan Turner) and Bethany (Madison Iseman) decide to save their lives during 'Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle' two years ago. Will never touch this dangerous video game, as he pulls the player in and transforms them into game characters to fight trouble on a dangerous island Leaves for. But Spencer's inscriptions bring him and his friends to this fantasy island once again.

Actually, while Martha, Bethany and Fridge are living a full life after coming back from Jumanji in the previous film, Spencer is not able to come out of his insecurities completely. He wants to see himself again as Jumanji's powerful character, Doctor Smolder Bravestone (Dwayne Johnson), and in the same sequence reaches Jumanji through a video game. Here, distraught over Spencer's disappearance, his friends Martha, Fridge and Bethany also reach Jumanji through a video game to save him. The funny thing is that this time their characters are interchangeable. For example, instead of Spencer, his grandfather Eddie becomes Doctor Bravestone, this time Eddie's friend Milo gets the role of Mouse (Kevin Hart) instead of Fridge. Martha is also Ruby Roundhouse (Karen Gillan) this time, so the fridge becomes Professor Sheldon-style (Jake Black) this time. By the way, this interchange of characters is the biggest USP of the film.

This twist by the film's writer-director Jake Kasdan not only adds newness to the story, but also gives it an extension. otherwise, after 'Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle', it would have been difficult to reunite the audience with the same characters and almost the same story. Like last time, this time also this team has to complete a dangerous task, for which they have to face two-four of different kinds of threats. By the way, this task does not seem like something very new or more exciting.

However, the scenes involving ostriches and bears are spectacular. The director has kept a good balance of comedy, emotion, action, adventure in the film. Talking about the actress, Dwayne Johnson has raised the level of his comic timing along with the action.

Jake Black's One Liners laugh. At the same time, Karen Gillan has managed to make a strong presence. Danny DeVito as Eddie makes the film live. His relationship with friend Milo i.e. Danny Glover seems very sweet. While Nick Jonas is handsome, Aquafina has done justice to her character.
