Jungle Cruise has a lot going for it. It looks like the time of charming, old school adventure flick that can draw a crowd. It has two very likable leads – Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt. And it’s directed by Jaume Collet-Serra, who specializes in trashy-yet-stylish movies like The Shallows and Orphan. We can only hope all of those elements come together here to result in a film worth checking out. I’m a big fan of Collet-Serra’s work, so his involvement alone has me curious. I never imagined him making a big Disney movie, but here we are!
In addition to Johnson and Blunt, Jungle Cruise features Edgar Ramirez, Jack Whitehall, Jesse Plemons, and Paul Giamatti. The screenplay comes via Michael Green, Glenn Ficarra, John Requa, J. D. Payne, and Patrick McKay – and having multiple screenwriters on a project like this isn’t always a great sign. Still, I have my fingers crossed. And the movie sure looks fun.
Jungle Cruise opens July 24, 2020.
