This has to be the best TV series on right now. The casting, Plot, characters, music, makeup and everything else just fits perfectly. I can't say enough good things about this series aside from its nearly perfect. There are absolutely no missteps along the way. It's the best TV drama of the last ten years hands down. Watch it at all costs, its worth every second!

I love the Jumanji series and felt the last title had, hands down, nailed it. I couldn't wait for this sequel to drop, but instead of wowing me it dropped the ball indeed. The new characters, albeit played by legends of the game Danny Glover, and Danny DeVito, do not belong in this storyline...and the addition of Akwardfina is just a complete disappointment. Not only is she a horrible actress in general, but she can't even make slapstick in a children's film believable. Johnson, Hart, Black and Gillan do a fabulous job once again and the writers Jake Kasdan and Jeff Pinkner seem to have taken the magical world of Jumanji to the next level yet again. If it weren't for the lame acting at the onset and the addition of these random characters who do nothing to progress the plot, slow the action and dialogue to a snails pace as though the audience were having to look over their shoulders and wonder where grandpa is, it might be just as great as it was meant to be. It's definitely worth a watch, but it's not nearly as good as it could have been. Leaves ya laughing in scenes, frustrated in scenes and afterwards looking at the rest of the family and saying a general meah.
