The Daily Something

Okay so this is a movie I was actually super impressed with! I saw the previews for it and I didn't think I would like it at all... I'm a big fan of the original but the trailer had nothing I liked in it. I didn't want to see it in theaters... but then I saw it on sale at Target and I thought "Eh, why not." And honestly... there's nothing that I didn't like about the movie! This is definitely the best way to re-do something... I think of all the reboot's that have been done so far- this is my favorite. I also really liked that it was a "school" movie. The original Jumanji was great but it just showed 2 kids that just moved to a new town... it didn't show anything about their school or anything. This was a group of high schoolers and it has a little bit of a "Breakfast Club" vibe. You have an outcast girl that gets in trouble for speaking her mind, a jock, a girl obsessed with Instagram and boys, and a nerdy guy... and they kin...

So I was excited when this movie came out. I'm not a big fan of the Goosebumps books, I think I read one once that was a choose your own adventure book, and I didn't know it was a choose your own adventure book at the time and I was confused by it. Plus I was afraid of everything as a kid, so it would have scared the pants off of me. Anyway the movie looked good so I wanted to see it. And overall its a good movie... it isn't fantastic though and there are a lot of reasons why. It started off really really slow. It felt like it took forever to get to the goosebumps books getting out... they could have cut some scenes out just to make it go a little bit faster. I would have rather seen more of the monster stuff than the exposition. They did a good job with the exposition and the set and everything, but they really took their time with it and I could have done with a little less of that. Another thing that I felt was a little weird were the jokes at the beginning. I liked ...
