Review of Jungle Cruise (2021) by Patrioticpencil — 30 Jul 2021

Swing and a miss! Jungle Cruise is clearly another attempt at Disney to capitalize in another one of their beloved rides. Jungle Cruise might be an attraction at Disney Parks but as a movie in runs dry.

The movie obviously borrows its concept from its brother ride Pirates of the Caribbean but sadly it does not measure up with obvious story line, sequence and plot points. The bad guy is as generic as the devices used in the movie which have been seen in other pictures in the past.

Emily Blunts and Dwayne Johnsons chemistry as banters go is superb but as a love interest is as believable as this movie is sure to NOT get a sequel. Sadly the people behind this movie do not waste the opportunity to inject the audience plainly rejected act of social commentary, if they had invested the same energy into giving the movie an original formula instead of a rehash of past properties it might had a chance to hold its own.

As a bored Saturday time killer it works, maybe to waste time at the mall, and or for the kiddies they MIGHT enjoy it. I suggest you leave to watch when it is available without pay.
