The film starts in 1996 with a quick callback to the ending of the original film. A jogger on the beach discovers the Jumanji board game and takes it home to his son, who isn’t even a little interested in a stupid board game because he’s into video games. Jumanji – being magic – turns itself into a video game system. The kid plays it and, you know, gets Jumanjied. Flash-forward to present day. Spencer (Alex Wolff, “The House of Tomorrow”) is a geeky kid helping his former best friend and football star Fridge (Ser’Darius Blain, “Maybe Someday”) stay on the team by doing his homework. They get caught and sentenced to detention, alongside phone-obsessed popular girl Bethany (Madison Iseman, TV’s “Still the King”) and the snarky, awkward Martha (Morgan Turner, “Wonderstruck”). While digging through donation boxes, they discover the dusty, long-forgotten Jumanji video game. They decide to play and – of course – they also get Jumanjied. They find themselves in the jungles of Jumanji, embodied by the avatars that they chose. Spencer is all-everything heartthrob hero Dr. Smolder Bravestone (Dwayne Johnson, “The Fate of the Furious”). Fridge is short-statured zoologist Mouse Finbar (Kevin Hart, “Captain Underpants”). Martha is badass karate expert Ruby Roundhouse (Karen Gillan, “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. And Bethany is pudgy, pasty scientist Professor Sheldon Oberon (Jack Black, “Kung Fu Panda 3”). All they want is to get home, but to do that, they have to beat the game. Specifically, they have to restore the jewel known as the Jaguar’s Eye to the great statue at Jumanji’s center. Standing in their way is Bravestone’s rival, the sinister Van Pelt (Bobby Cannavale, “Ferdinand”), who stole the jewel and used it to take control of all of Jumanji’s animal life. And so, the group embarks on an epic adventure, learning how to combine their various skills in order to accomplish the tasks the game puts before them. But Jumanji can be a deadly place, with danger lurking around every corner, and with just three lives apiece, there are only so many mistakes that they can make before being trapped in the game forever. It’s actually pretty refreshing to watch a movie like “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle.” You don’t see nearly as many family-friendly live-action adventures as you used to; this is a prime example of just such a movie. It’s not a particularly sophisticated movie, but it really does have something for everyone – some great action set pieces, plenty of physical comedy, jokes both silly and smart, some charming awkward romance stuff, you name it. It’s just plain fun; it doesn’t take itself too seriously and makes sure that you don’t either. It’s a bit of a departure for director Jake Kasdan, whose previous feature work includes raunchier fare like “Sex Tape” and “Bad Teacher,” but he shows a strong grasp of what makes a movie like this tick. He gives us likeable characters and a straightforward narrative marked by some engaging visuals and an appropriately brisk sense of pacing. Of course, the casting for something like this is key. This kind of story is pure gold for The Rock; he can lean into his outsized charisma while also displaying the childlike charms that we rarely get to see in his standard fare. This movie needs a capital-M Movie Star – and that’s Dwayne Johnson. Hart has already proven to be a capable sidekick to the Rock in fast-paced action fare, so this pairing is a no-brainer. It’s a partnership that still works. Gillan could have gotten lost in such a high-profile cast, but instead holds her own beautifully. And I can’t say enough about Jack Black as a teenage girl – it could have been a tired one-note joke, but instead, stays fresh and clever in unexpected ways. The real-life versions of the teens are fine, albeit ultimately a touch forgettable. Still, theirs are thankless roles that they tackle with real commitment, which is admirable. Cannavale is decent as the bad guy, sinister but not TOO sinister. Rhys Darby gets some laughs as the game’s NPC guide character. Oh, and there’s a Nick Jonas sighting as well, but we won’t get into that. “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle” is good big-budget family fare, perfect for the holiday season. And if the early numbers are any indicator, it’s going to be the kind of box office success that opens the door for similarly-targeted films going forward. It’s fast-paced and funny and an easy way to kill a couple of hours for audiences of all ages. [4.5 out of 5]

U nešto drukčijem izdanju stigao nam je film sa Dwayne Johnsonom koji je službeno nastavak filma s Robinom Williamsom, ali koji se više može nazvati zasebnim filmom koji samo iskorištava ime Jumanji Naziv originala: Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle Uloge: Dwayne The Rock Johnson, Jack Black, Kevin Hart, Karen Gillan, Nick Jonas, Bobby Cannavale, Alex Wolff, Madison Iseman, Ser’Darius Blain, Morgan Turner Redatelj: Jake Kasdan Trajanje: 119 minuta Datum premijere: 28. prosinac 2017. Svi mi imamo filmove koje smo pogledali kao djeca ili teenageri (ali zar to nije isto?) i koji su nas oduševili da bi se kasnije, kad smo odrasli i dobili profinjeniji ukus, pitali što smo vidjeli u tom filmu i gdje nam je bila pamet. Jumanji je tipičan primjer – film koji mlađim gledateljima nudi puno mašte, ali kada ga gledate zrelijim očima vidite u biti koliko je jednostavan i prosječan. A taj film je dobio svojevrsni nastavak koji je upravo stigao u kina i čiji će doživljaj biti sličan svom prethodniku iz 1996. godine. Jumanji: Dobrodošli u džunglu nije reboot, nije ni tipičan nastavak jer je neizravno vezan za film s Robinom Williamsom, a donosi priču o četvero srednjoškolaca koji završe u srednjoškolskoj kazni gdje vrijeme odluče ubiti igrajući staru videoigru Jumanji koju slučajno otkriju. Međutim, igra ih uvuče u svoj svijet u kojem postaju likovi iz igre u kojoj moraju proći opasnu avanturu ukoliko žele pobijediti i vratiti se u stvarni život. Da bi se povezao sa starijim filmom novi Jumanji na početku filma radnju vraća u 1996. godini gdje se društvena igra Jumanji pojavljuje u svega dva kadra. Malo više od dva desetljeća kasnije, društvena igra postaje video igra jer današnji klinci vjerojatno i onako ne znaju što je to društvena igra. Iako to možda nama starijima zvuči glupo i nepotrebno, odluka je u stvari dobra jer se Jumanji: Dobrodošli u džunglu samo iskorištava ime Williamsovog filma, te želi da ga se gleda kao zaseban film. I iako će se uz njegovo ime pisati „nastavak“ Dobrodošli u džunglu jest zaseban film. Također, iako mu mlađi gledatelji jesu primarno tržište, Dobrodošli u džunglu se prilično oslanja na komediju, a zahvaljujući izboru glumaca imat će prođu i kod nešto starijih. Priča se uglavnom temelji na tome da srednjoškolci postaju avatari koji su im totalna suprotnost stvarnosti, pa situacija u kojoj šmokljan postaje nabildani frajer, selfijima i Instagramom opsjednuta tipična američka plavuša postaje srednjoviječni debeljko, samozatajna djevojka koja ulaže baš ništa u svoj izgled postaje komad, dok omiljena faca i vođa navale lokalne momčadi američkog nogometa postaje brbljavi kepec koji nije dobar baš u ničemu, daje neograničen potencijal za smijeh. I velikom većinom ga i iskorištava jer će baš te situacije biti izbor najvećeg smijeha. Pogotovo situacije s Dwayne Johnsonom. The Rock je jedan od onih glumaca sa širokom frajerskim osmijehom koje je nekako nemoguće ne voljeti, i čiji će filmovi koliko god bili loši opet baš zbog njega biti OK. Johnson je već pokazao svoj talent za komediju, pa i ove godine u Brzim i žestokim 8, a nakon Tajne službe dobiva novu priliku glumiti zajedno s Kevinom Hartom. Johnson i Hart su ponovo dvojac oko kojeg se vrti film, ali ovaj put s nešto lošijim rezultatom jer za razliku od ostalih likova koji u biti ismijavaju razliku između avatara i srednjoškolca, Kevin Hart je tipičan Kevin Hart. I nakon toliko filmova u kojima je Kevin Hart tipični Kevin Hart, ne moguće je ne zapitati se može li on u biti glumiti ili mu je maksimum biti – Kevin Hart? Prilično zbunjujuća rečenica, zar ne? Johnson i Jack Black su baš zato što se zabavljaju sa ismijavanjem najzabavniji u filmu, dok četvorku zaokružuje Karen Gillan koja ostaje nekako u sjeni, i tu kao da je samo da izgleda dobro. Jumanji donosi akciju kakvu smo i očekivali za ovaj film, dakle ništa preduboko ali radnja i ne treba biti nekakva previše smislena kada je ovakav tip filma u pitanju. Jedino bi značajno kvaliteti filma pridonijelo da je negativac bolji jer ovako cijela misija koju moraju proći glavni junaci i nema neki dojam opasnosti pa se u konačnici sve svodi na smijeh, bacajući sve ostalo u drugi plan. Jumanji: Dobrodošli u džunglu je solidan film koji će vas opustiti i nasmijati, ali koji neće predugo ostati u vašoj memoriji. Zahvaljujući Johnsonu i Blacku film je jak u komičnom elementu, dobro režirane akcijske scene uz prekrasan krajolik će sigurno privući pozornost ali osim tih elemenata film nudi malo toga drugoga. Uglavnom – ako ga pogledate iz dvorane ćete izaći opušteni, a ako ga ne pogledate nećete previše propustiti. I to je to za ovu godinu, ostala je još samo lista najboljih filmova (po mom skromnom mišljenju), i vrijeme je da se kalendar okrene na 2018!Alex Wolff, Avantura, Bobby Cannavale, Dwayne The Rock Johnson, Jack Black, Jake Kasdan, Karen Gillan, Kevin Hart, Madison Iseman, Morgan Turner, Nick Jonas, Ser'Darius Blain
