Best thing about the film was the leading lady!

Saw Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle yesterday with family.
We really enjoyed it , there are some very good laugh out loud moments. However if you go thinking that it will be a remake of the original you will be disappointed.
If you go thinking that it is the next chapter/new story you will enjoy it more.
All the actors/ actresses were fantastic. The scene with Karen Gillan dancing was very good.
It won't be for everyone but all in all me and my kids loved it.

Second that, special mention for Jack Black given the nature of his character change. Really good entertainment. :thup:
Watched as much as we could of Bright before turning it off, absolute tosh, trailer seemed decent but went totally off on one.

Mrs BiM thought that the way he, er, "handled" the toilet issue was absolutely hilarious.

It’s a strange film alright, stuck with it and enjoyed it in the end.

A few years old but we eventually got round to watching Gone Baby Gone, cracking film, Casey Affleck is some actor.
Ditto... went a bit flat in the middle but not a bad ending.

Sit back, switch off, enjoy, totally agree with the above and other comments, 4 good main actors and one of those films I’d like to see the out takes from.

Brilliant - just brilliant , wonderful film telling the story of some amazing ladies who deserve every credit they were finally given.
Such a shame there are still areas in the US that act like the people in the film when it comes to people of differing race.

Watched it last night and thoroughly recommend it. Even had me in tears at one point - having a black Fijian as an adopted sister I well remember the playground fights in the early 60’s, through to 76.

We'd seen it before but watched it again and still thoroughly enjoyed it. Amazing how 3 women who achieved so much ended up working in the same place, and how badly they were treated. Not the Land of the Free's finest moment. We loved the fact that they finally managed to honour Katherine Goble Johnson during her lifetime so that she got to see it, rather than posthumously. Incidentally, she is still alive, and still married to Jim according to Wikipedia. :thup:

Ben Affleck has directed some cracking films. The Town is a particularly fantastic film

Rings a bell, think I may have seen it but thanks for the heads up, I'll watch it again with the family.
Watched Be Kind Rewind and The Autopsy Of Jane Doe last night, first was decent, had some funny moments, second was very spooky and lots of "jumpy" moments
worth a watch.

John Wick 2. Leave your brain with the remote and take it for what it is...silly and fun.

It's Jumanji or The Greatest Showman for me and Mrs SiLH on Hogmanay - any thoughts? Former looks a good bit of fun - latter - well it looks a bit Moulin Rougish and 'she to be obeyed' rather enjoyed that one.
