She "dies" a moment later, vanishing in a cloud of red mist, before reappearing a moment later, because video game. Karen Gillan's character gets shot at one point and while we don't see her get hit, we do see the wound, which probably is the most graphic moment in the film. There a lot of gun violence but it's fairly bloodless. Violence is largely done for comedic effect, but as the plot of Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle is focused around a video game, we get video game style violence. This shift isn't massive, but it may be enough to leave the youngest part of the audience for the first film behind for this one. Even once the adult characters take over, the film's premise is that The Rock, Karen Gillan, and the rest are avatars being piloted by teenagers, so they very much still act like older kids. As such, everything about Welcome to the Jungle is skewed a bit older than the original Jumanji. All of the "kid" roles are older in Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, as the part of the film not set inside the jungle world takes place in a high school. The original Jumanji starred young kids in the major roles Kirsten Dunst was 13 when the movie was released back in 1995. Is the new Jumanji as family friendly? Let's dig in. Since the target audience for the original Jumanji is now much older and may have kids of their own, they might be considering Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle as a potential movie outing for the family this holiday. Jumanji was a PG-rated family movie whose protagonists were pre-teens, or in the case of Robin Williams, a kid trapped in the body of an adult.
