Critics Consensus

Daniel Radcliffe does right by Jungle's fact-based story with a clearly committed performance, even if the film around him doesn't always match his efforts.

Ben Sachs Chicago Reader 11/16/2017 By presenting the characters as psychological abstractions, McLean makes the story feel universal. He wants you to ask whether you'd be capable of surviving an experience like this. Go to Full Review Stephen Romei The Australian 11/03/2017 This is a solid movie about man versus nature. Go to Full Review Anna Smith Time Out 10/20/2017 More time could have been spent developing the bond between the men, but ultimately this is quite gripping: a weepie bromance. You don't see one of those every day. Go to Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews 08/04/2021 ...consistently elevated by Radcliffe's eye-opening, completely convincing performance. Go to Full Review Glenn Dunks Glenn Dunks 05/02/2021 The changing dynamics of their friendship - especially Jackson's impressive portrayal of a physically depleted adventurer whose polished demeanour gradually unravels - give Jungle's second act a particularly vibrant hum of tension... Go to Full Review Leigh Monson Substream Magazine 10/01/2020 Daniel Radcliffe is precisely the presence who can make a film like Jungle work, and the film largely succeeds by being carried on his shoulders.

Adam J @RT29304548 6d Not one more Israeli’s story needs told. This movie was more propaganda. Good thing it flopped. See more Scott B @sburke802 Mar 7 Amazing Edge of Your Seat Thriller. One of the best Survival Movies I have ever seen. If you liked the Movie "Into Thin Air" you will love this Movie. The fact that is a True Story makes it that much better. See more Emmanuel R. @supeM Jan 30 Stellar gosh darn film. On the scale of pop corn flick to the right and uncomfortable watch to the left it sits to the left of the middle of that graph. Based on a true story and this was in the era of Daniel’s experimental film roles so if u are a fan of that DEFINITELY give this a watch. Its not wacky per se but it is not close to the work others might know him better for. One thing though. This movie rarely showcases human nature as the description would have you believe. There is very little about human to human survival interactions See more Bear S @RT98067606 Oct 16 I feel like this movie showcases how pretty Daniel Radcliffe is every chance it gets...and I'm here for it!! 😆 I really enjoyed the film. Great acting 🙂 See more Michael B @RT66173810 Sep 29 A gripping story, well told, with fine performances. Great locations, superb photography. Nail biting action. Are audiences jaded? It doesn’t seem to be getting the credit it deserves here. See more Casa N @RT21797508 06/22/2025 What a boring boring boring boring movie it's much better if you fast forward through it because it sucks it's so predictable and it's lame don't watch it if you value your time See more Read all reviews
