Verdict: Elevated by the comedic skills of Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Karen Gillan and especially Jack Black, "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle" is a blast from start to finish. Even though the film suffers from quite a bit of cheese, exposition and convenience, as well as a disappointing villain played by Bobby Cannavale, I can genuinely say that it is one of the biggest surprises of 2017.

Final Grade: 7/10
