Reviews
San Francisco Examiner - The result is a thrill ride with enough plunges and turns and loop-the-loops to make it worth a spin., USA Today - Based on a popular children's book by Chris Van Allsburg and directed by that "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids" guy Joe Johnston, Jumanji is a calculated but very entertaining special effects extravaganza., Sight and Sound - The pleasures of JUMANJI lies in its echoes of JURASSIC PARK, the incontrovertible evidence that magic exists and can., Variety - The film unleashes an arsenal of special effects that are dazzling to the eye. In addition to Williams' heartfelt, vulnerable performance, Hunt elicits humor and pathos.

Additional Information
A magical board game serves as a door to another dimension in this adventure fantasy based on Chris Van Allsburg's award-winning children's book. When a pair of orphans discover the game and start playing it, they unwittingly unleash a man (Robin Williams) who's been trapped inside--as well as an array of stampeding jungle animals, brought vividly to the screen courtesy of ILM's computer-generated special effects. The film is directed by Joe Johnston (THE ROCKETEER, JURASSIC PARK III).
