A series of films that follow several people playing a strange board game that unleashes all the creatures from the game's jungle into our world. The board game later turns into a video game, and when booted up, the players become the avatars of the characters they have selected. The only way to stop the game is to beat it and call out its name. All films are based on a book written by Chris Van Allsburg in 1981.
Watch the Jumanji movies in release order, starting with Jumanji (1995) and continuing through Jumanji: The Next Level (2019). The series spans 3 films, released between 1995 and 2019. Audiences rate the franchise 7/10 on average.
For most viewers, release order is the recommended way to watch Jumanji. This is how the story was crafted and revealed to audiences — earlier films seed details, callbacks, and twists that pay off in later entries. Watching in release order preserves those reveals and matches the pacing the filmmakers intended.
Jumanji largely tracks its own in-universe chronology, so release order and chronological order overlap closely. You can use either without losing much, though release order is still the safest first watch.
