Movie Review

Time and Place: 1969-1989 in a Town 

Gender: Adventure

Stars: 4 and half / 5

The movie is really nice and interesting. Everything starts by 2 kids playing some game, and a boy named Alan that everyone are mean to. Later on we find out that the game is called Jumanji. Alan decides to play the game with one of his friends. He rolls the dice and the game takes him to the jungle. After few years Jude and Peter move to a house with their aunt because their parents died. When they're about to go to school they hear a weird sound (like jungle) and they go upstairs. When they find the game they start to play it. After Peter rolls the dice a weird, ugly man (Alan)comes out of it. He kills the lion that he saw and looks for his parents around the house. They continue to play the game but they find out that there is one more player that needs to roll the dice. They visit Sara (the girl that played with Alan) and tell her that she needs to play with them. Then they play the game all together. When Alan rolled the dice a hunter came out and wants to kill him. They continue to play the game. I liked how they used sound and and light. Like in one scene with alligator the light is really cool and when they come close to the game the sound is really cool and weird.

I like how the hunter acted. He was really funny and always made a really weird face. He also had a really cool costume and he played in cool scenes.
