After a CIA agent got murdered, CIA turns to a doctor and an experimental procedure, which will allow the agents memories to be transferred into someone else's mind. The only problem is that the procedure requires a certain type of mind, the mind of a psychopath. Kevin Costner stars and reminds us all of what a terrific actor he truly is.
There are also plenty of holes in the plot and a bad guy with more resources than the USA, UK and Russia combined. Then there all the characters that get shot or blown up, but never die.
The director (or editor) was too liberal with Woody Harrelson's part. He is chilling as a charismatic religious leader of a cult-like town with a dark secret but you can’t have him seducing the hero’s wife away from him by causing her to go into a delirious fever and not explain how he did it or why she was swayed.
This Jumanji has a great deal of humor and new age additions. The story line was cute and the casting was great! It's a great retake on the game that started it all.
