It's dramatically inert and visually repugnant (has that same nauseating digital look that all of Boyle's latter-day work does) and 90% of it is half-hearted callbacks to the original movie. Felt almost aggressively pointless to me

Either I missed Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle when I was setting up the poll or (more likely) it wasn't listed on Wiki yet. Either way, it sounds awful (and racist), but I have to admit that I kind of appreciate that it apparently starts out as a Breakfast Club ripoff before developing a needlessly complicated plot about body-swapping avatars.

Some of the reviewers giving extremely positive accounts of this travesty must have been paid off generously.
