Jungle (2017) is a captivating and intense adventure movie directed by Greg McLean and starring Daniel Radcliffe, Thomas Kretschmann, and Alex Russell. The film tells the true story of Yossi Ghinsberg, an Israeli backpacker who gets lost in the Bolivian jungle and faces a perilous struggle for survival. The film begins as Yossi (Daniel Radcliffe) arrives in La Paz, Bolivia, and meets a Swiss man named Marcus (Joel Jackson) and an American photographer, Kevin (Alex Russell). The three men become fast friends and decide to embark on a journey to the jungle, searching for an uncharted Indian village. They recruit an experienced guide, Karl (Thomas Kretschmann), who agrees to lead them deep into the jungle.

The group makes their way into the wilderness, navigating the rough terrain and harsh weather. Along the way, they encounter various wildlife and face several obstacles, including capsizing their raft in a rapid river. Despite these challenges, they continue to move deeper into the jungle, where they hope to find the elusive Indian village.

However, tensions arise between the group as they face an unexpected setback. Karl's leadership and competency are called into question, and the group begins to splinter. Yossi, convinced that Karl is leading them in circles, breaks off on his own to find another way out of the jungle.

Yossi's decision to leave the group proves to be disastrous, as he quickly becomes lost and alone in the dense jungle. Without any food or water, he is forced to rely on his own survival skills to stay alive. The harsh environment, coupled with Yossi's deteriorating physical and mental state, creates a suspenseful and intense atmosphere that keeps the audience on edge.

As Yossi's journey continues, he encounters various obstacles and dangers, including poisonous snakes, torrential rain, and hunger. His journey becomes a race against time as he struggles to survive against all odds.

Thomas Kretschmann, who plays the experienced guide Karl, delivers a strong performance in the film. His character serves as a foil to Radcliffe's Yossi, highlighting the importance of preparation, expertise, and leadership in the wilderness. Alex Russell's character, Kevin, also provides a contrast to Yossi's perspective, serving as a more level-headed and cautious character.

Daniel Radcliffe's performance in Jungle is nothing short of remarkable, as he portrays Yossi with authenticity and nuance. Radcliffe convincingly portrays the character's anguished mental state and physical deterioration as he struggles to survive.

Jungle is a visually stunning film, with breathtaking panoramic shots of the Bolivian jungle. The cinematography and sound design effectively convey the intensity and beauty of the environment, immersing the audience in the setting.

Overall, Jungle is an engaging and gripping film that explores the dangers and beauty of the wilderness. McLean's direction and Radcliffe's performance effectively create a sense of urgency and tension, keeping the audience on the edge of their seats until the very end.

Jungle is a 2017 adventure movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 55 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 6.7 and a MetaScore of 48.
