I have not seen this movie in more then a decade perhaps even more so it was pretty new to me again. Sure I remembered a few things here and there but I didn't remember the amount of CGI for a movie made in 1995 or how well the story was. The CGI is of course very dated compared to now but for its time this movie was amazing! The story for a movie that revolves around a board game is a very interesting concept and very well told. The acting by a young Kirsten Dunst and comedic Robin Williams and the rest of the cast is very well done. This is a great movie and if you have children between the ages of 7 to 13 I would bet they'd like it too.

lovely movie

I thought I'd go out of my way to review this, the new ones don't have a leg to stand on. This movie is a classic that should never have been touched, I think this is a remarkable original story that is such an entertaining piece of cinema that you'll want to watch it again! To this day I still can't believe they remade these movies, based purely on the main factor of money, sure it makes the world go round but were missing important elements of try cinema and thats sroey, story is everything, Robin Williams is a comedy genius which is probably why they needed 3 big names to carry the weight of this masterpiece. Perfect classic, watch this again don't bother with the new ones, highly recommend.

I saw a little bit long ago and it seemed dull then. This time, i start another play right from the start and i found it still dull : the young boy appears a bit dumb, his wealthy family not better … And then, first comes teen Dunst and i'm really surprised how good she acted (as she never convinced me as Peter's girlfriend). Next, Robin gets in the movie getting out the game and the magic operates : i really like the way past, present and future merge, how the game expands to the big mansion into town. If the special effects looks very tired, the story is original, full of surprises and proves that a humble cast can do as fine as a multiple billion dollars one ! Robin proved one more time he was a never grown-up kid with a beautiful soul with kids and the key to childish fun ! So i had a great time with this small movie as it gives me all i ask to cinema : to find a way to leave (cautiously) my world behind !!

Fun family film about a magical board game that hosts many dangers that can only be stopped when a player finishes. The entire cast does their job well, but the only one not interchangeable is Hyde in a double-role as the main character's wealthy stern father and a big-game hunter (hint: intentional parallel). Entertaining from start to finish, but even children in 1995 were likely very aware that the scary creatures on screen were nothing more than special-effects—because of this, it's difficult to ever get lost in the delicious chaos despite all the funny moments and thrills. Still, despite its flaws, the story is interesting enough for the whole family enjoy and the film is good enough to be replayed every few years. *** (out of four)

This film is a lot better than others have ranked it. It deserves more than a 6 average. I gave it a 7 and believe it's underrated. The basic story is that years ago, while a child, Robin Williams was transported into the game he was playing at the time and trapped there. Later, two other children find the game board and play it, releasing a now grown up Williams, along with all sorts of dangerous animals and vines and stuff. These things threaten mankind and it's up to Williams, along with Bonnie Hunt, to find a way to stop these things from killing off man. There's a good bit of suspense and with every move the heroic folks make, something counteracts it and things nearly always end up being worse than before. They finally determine that the only way to end the horror is to finish the game that Williams started all those years ago. Now, if they could only find the game board. This is a well written adaptation of a popular book, and I found it quite entertaining.

Great performances help to enhance this amazing story. This is one of those movies that Williams isn't only in for the paycheck. This is a story about a place most people might not be able to conceive, and Williams is one of the world's supreme artistic talents. Are there annoying things in this movie? Yes, like the overdone character of the hunter. The story is nothing special but exceptional performance from most of the cast, realism and the weird mood it puts you in make it a must-see masterpiece. In its category it is amongst the best. Williams carries this movie and saves it from being a disaster with his physical slapstick.
