ETimes examines the comedy entertainer
Reviewing the film, ETimes wrote, “Welcome To The Jungle is not a flawless comedy. It is crowded, noisy and often indulgent. But despite its faults, it manages to provide enough laughs and fun moments to justify the ride. This is the kind of film that asks you to abandon logic and just surrender to the madness. If you enjoy riotous ensemble comedies filled with slapstick humor—this jungle ride offers enough fun to keep you engaged.“DISCLAIMER: Box office numbers and data in this article are compiled from public and industry sources.
