![]() Honestly, I was expecting a real trainwreck of a film but director Jake Kasdan has provided one of the most entertaining and clever comedies of the year.

The 2017 version playfully makes two homages to the original version, firstly offering a beginning sequence set in 1996, where a kid finds the Jumanji board game washed up on a beach, before dismissing it, stating that no one plays board games anymore. “Jumanji” follows on from the 90’s tale starring Robin Williams, where Williams and crew get sucked into a board game and find themselves fighting for the game – and their lives. ![]() ![]() A) Is this a remake that’s gonna suck?
