While Jungle Cruise may not be quite as modern as it sets out to be, it certainly isn't slacking when it comes to good, old-fashioned entertainment.

Like the ride itself, it requires no more mental engagement than you would devote to any theme park visit (excluding the thrill rides, which actually raise a pulse).

Empire Magazine
Credit goes only to its two stars that this is watchable, because the film is a derivative hodge-podge unworthy of their charisma.

A period piece that starts like gangbusters but can't keep from wading into familiar waters.

Compared to other attempts to turn theme park attractions into fresh revenue streams, it's not as lifeless as The Haunted Mansion or Tomorrowland. But that doesn't mean it's good.

This ride with Johnson and Blunt is so purely entertaining you may well want to go round again.

Jungle Cruise has the look and feel of a paycheck gig for all involved, but everyone seems to be having a great time...

Slant Magazine
Jaume Collet-Serra's deft touches elevate what otherwise feels like another formulaic contemporary Disney blockbuster.

It will probably do the job for families - after all, it's unlikely many seven-year-olds will share my disappointment with the slapdash sound mix or muddy grading.

Jungle Cruise is a movie that implicitly asks: What’s wrong with a little good old-fashioned escapism? The answer is: Absolutely nothing...

Expectations be damned: (Jungle Cruise) is one of the year’s most purely pleasurable motion pictures.
