Reviews for Jumanji
Like the rest of Johnston's oeuvre, Jumanji puts vivid characters through paces that will quicken any child's pulse.
This smart, scary film, is still a favorite to dust off and take from the "vhs" bin
Great special effects and exciting adventure stuff. A bit of a slow buildup and unnecessarily dead parents.
