I watched this movie last night on Disney plus with my family since we haven’t gone to the theaters for almost 2 years due to the ongoing pandemic and it’s deadly variant. I find it an amazing fun film to watch if you are interested in adventure films. The Rock and Emily Blunt did a real excellent job on their characters, especially Paul Giamatti which I found him very hilarious. It kinda gives in some 90s/2000s movie vibes such as The Mummy and Pirates of the Caribbean with an Indiana Jones trope. While i enjoyed the film, I found some flaws such as the CGI and the villain. The special effects can be good at a time, but some of it felt overused and rushed at the same time. Also, the villain felt pretty generic. He’s basically Arnold Toht (from Indiana Jones) with a cartoony stereotype who acts like the Tree of Life were a room full of gold like Scrooge McDuck. Maybe that’s just me lol? The action feels like your at an amusement park (which the film is based off a ride at Disneyland) where you cannot get enough. I was also surprised how Metallica (my favorite band) got involved with James Newton Howard with a badass cover for Nothing Else Matters. It was so epic. I would recommend you guys to watch Jungle Cruise in theaters if you feel safe or on Disney plus if you don’t feel safe. On a scale, I’ll give this movie a 7/10.

To be honest, I actually loved this movie. It wasn’t that bad as almost everyone else was saying. I’ve had a fun time watching this on HBO Max with my sister since we’ve both grew up with the original Space Jam. I feel like this film is targeted for a younger generation and fan service of nostalgia like me. Besides, the movie was good but it wasn’t perfect. Meaning that it’s not that type of flick that deserves an Academy Award like Toy Story or Spirited Away. On a scale, I’ll give this movie a 6.5/10.
