Jumanji:
Welcome to the Jungle
Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle is a 2017 American action adventure
comedy film, directed by Jake Kasdan and written by Kasdan, Chris McKenna, Erik
Sommers, Scott Rosenberg and Jeff Pinkner, from a story by McKenna. A
standalone sequel to Jumanji (1995), the film stars Dwayne Johnson, Jack Black,
Kevin Hart, Karen Gillan, Nick Jonas and Bobby Cannavale. The film is set
twenty-one years after the first film, and follows four teenagers who are
transported into the video game world of Jumanji, and, playing as the
characters they chose, must beat the game in order to return to the real world.
The film is also a tribute to Robin Williams, star of the original, who died in
2014.
When four teenagers in detention discover an old video game console with
a game they've never heard of, they are immediately thrust into the game's
jungle setting, into the bodies of their avatars, played by Dwayne Johnson,
Jack Black, Kevin Hart, and Karen Gillan. What they discover is that you don't
just play Jumanji -Jumanji plays you. They'll have to go on the most dangerous
adventure of their lives, or they'll be stuck in the game forever. Collapse
The film has Dwayne Johnson as Dr. Smolder Bravestone, an archaeologist
and explorer who is Spencer's avatar. Bravestone's strengths are courage,
reflexes, climbing, smoldering charisma, and boomerang throwing. His only weakness
is generosity. He is the archetypically masculine, intelligent, and courageous
video game hero of the story. Jack Black as Professor Sheldon
"Shelly" Oberon, a cartographer, cryptographer, archaeologist and
paleontologist who is Bethany's avatar. Because of Oberon's obesity, his
endurance is his weakness. Karen Gillan as Ruby Roundhouse, a commando, martial
artist, and dance fighter who is Martha's avatar. Roundhouse is proficient in
karate, tai chi, jujutsu and capoeira, and her only weakness is toxins, such as
venomous substance from poisonous animals in Jumanji. Similar to Bravestone,
Roundhouse is the archetypically intelligent, athletic, beautiful, and scantily
clad video game heroine of the story. Kevin Hart as Franklin "Mouse"
Finbar, a short zoologist and weapons specialist who is Fridge's avatar. Finbar
is Bravestone's weapon valet and is skilled in cranial assault. His weaknesses
are cake, strength, and speed. Nick Jonas as Jefferson "Seaplane"
McDonough, the avatar of Alex Vreeke. McDonough is a mysterious guide,
adventurer, and pilot in the game, who helps the avatars escape Jumanji.
Non-player characters are Bobby Cannavale as Van Pelt, an explorer
seeking to control the "Jaguar's Eye", whose power he is then
demonically possessed by. Jonathan Hyde played a different version of Van Pelt
in the 1995 film. He serves as the antagonist in the world of Jumanji. Van Pelt
is given a different first name in the different regions in which the film was
released, "Russel" in North American territories and "John
Hardin" in European ones. Rhys Darby as Nigel. William Tokarsky as Trader

Charandas
Chor
Charandas Chor is a 2017 film directed by Shyam Maheshwari and written
by Shyam Maheshwari and Avinash Singh. The film stars Adesh Aware, Anuya Baiche
and Abhay Chavan.
The film depicts a journey of a thief who is on the run and finds some
more. It's a slice of life film spruced with layers of humour through our cute,
naïve guy Charan Chandrakant More.......is he that naïve? Charan is an
apprentice in films and in turn of events he gets a trunk of 2cr original cash
which he runs away with. From here, Charan embarks on a journey with 2cr booty,
but his problem is, he wants to tell it all about the trunk and also wants to
hide it all........he wants to own the trunk and disown the repercussions.......
But as Isaac Newton rightly said so- 'Truth is ever to be found in simplicity,
and not in the multiplicity and confusion of things'......We will find out the
truth!! Thus the movie is a journey of a thief which culminates into he being
robbed by his very own, near and dear..?
The
Greatest Showman
The Greatest Showman is a 2017 American period musical drama film
directed by Michael Gracey, and written by Jenny Bicks and Bill Condon. The
film stars Hugh Jackman, Zac Efron, Michelle Williams, Rebecca Ferguson, and
Zendaya. The film is inspired by the story of how P. T. Barnum started the
Barnum & Bailey Circus and the lives of its attractions.
Inspired by the ambition and imagination of P.T. Barnum, The Greatest
Showman tells the story of a visionary who rose from nothing to create a
mesmerizing spectacle that became a worldwide sensation. The Greatest Showman
is the third ring, a circus extravaganza built on pillars of classic musical
style that La La Land only brushed against. Nearly as old-fashioned as its 19th
century period, yet the songs by Oscar and Tony winners Benj Pasek and Justin
Paul always tug at modern emotions, ambitions and download demographics. The
movie addresses serious issues of love, greed and intolerance with unshakable
melodies and lyrics. A Million Dreams send Barnum from boyhood to financially
strapped fatherhood. Respectability becomes temptation (Never Enough).
Grotesque misfits that Barnum exploits stir public rage although not as much as
an interracial couple wishing to Rewrite the Stars.
The film has Hugh Jackman as P. T. Barnum, an ambitious showman and
entrepreneur. Ellis Rubin as Young P. T. Barnum. Ziv Zaifman provides Young P.
T. Barnum's singing voice. Zac Efron as Phillip Carlyle, a playwright who
becomes Barnum's partner. A composite character partly based on James Anthony
Bailey. Michelle Williams as Charity Barnum, the wife of P.T. Barnum. Skylar
Dunn as Young Charity. Rebecca Ferguson as Jenny Lind, a famous Swedish singer.
Loren Allred provides Lind’s singing voice. Zendaya as Anne Wheeler, an
acrobat, trapeze artist, and W.D.'s sister. Keala Settle as Lettie Lutz, a
bearded lady. Sam Humphrey as Charles Stratton, a dwarf performer who is also
known by his stage name of General Tom Thumb. Austyn Johnson as Caroline
Barnum, the daughter of P.T. Barnum. Cameron Seely as Helen Barnum, the
daughter of P.T. Barnum. Paul Sparks as James Gordon Bennett, the founder,
editor and publisher of the New York Herald. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as W. D.
Wheeler, an acrobat and Anne’s brother. Eric Anderson as Mr. O’Malley. Daniel
Everidge as The Lord of Leeds. Shannon Holtzapffel as Prince Constantine, The
Tattooed Man. Gayle Rankin as Queen Victoria. Will Swenson as Philo Barnum, a
