Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle – Does it Suck or is it a Surprising Hit?

Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle got dumped into December the week after Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Does that mean that it sucks or is there a possibility that it's actually good? Kriss breaks down what works and doesn't work with this movie and his surprising verdict.
Pros:
- The updated concept works pretty well
- Video game elements & tropes are done pretty well
- The cast works extremely well together and carry the movie
Cons:
- The story is pretty forgettable
- Visuals aren't up to par
- Bobby Cannavale's Van Pelt is pretty much worthless as a villain
Jumanji Welcome to the Jungle stars Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Jack Black, Karen Gillen, Alex Wolff, Ser'Darius Blain, Madison Iseman and Morgan Turner.
