This kind of reminded me of the god awful Jumanji movie with the rock. Similar composition of characters, exploding a "new and whacky world". Can we just not? I'd rather watch the old Lego stop motion which is actually still pretty good and that had a much smaller budget but way more soul.
My kids loved the Jumanji movie. THey were also less than 10 at the time, so not exactly a high bar.
I thought it was fine. I don't remember anything terribly objectionable, and I do like The Rock sometimes.
The issue isn't that it's a bad movie per se, the issue is that it has the name Jumanji. I love Robin Williams, even in bad movies he was the one that shined the brightest. And to have the same name as the classic movie is kinda my issue with it, there'll be people(read: NPCs) who will claim the old movie is no longer needed cuz "we got one with the rock now". I just don't think there's any need for this movie to exist at all, nor is it a really, really good movie where I'd have no issue with it existing. It's one of those post 2015 mediocre movies that don't do anything special.
