Exactly two decades after Jumanji comes a film which has a similar storyline and tries to recreate the same magic…and partially manages to do so. Why partially? Because, when Jumanji was released, the CG work of that quality was something that we have not seen before…in this case, though the work is far superior, it is not an entirely new experience. The film is about a writer whose characters start coming to life and so he locks them up in his book. When his daughter’s boyfriend, actually lets one of them out, it starts a chain reaction and all the characters escape. To get them back, the writer has to come up with a new book. Kids will love this film. Watch it with your young ones.
