Jungleland (2019)
6/10
good potential, great performance by Hunnam, ruined by predictable girl character
28 June 2021
First thirty minutes showed a lot of promise for an entertaining, engaging drama. Then they introduced the girl, who had trouble written all over her. Yay, a babysitting movie. But it gets worse. She can "take care of herself," has a major attitude, and is extremely deceitful. Surprise! The oldest cliches in the book are put into play, exacerbated by the fact that one of the main characters falls for every one. The little thrills here and there make up for it, or try to, and Hunnam's excellent performance saves this from a 5 for me, especially given the mediocre ending.
