_Jungle_ is certainly not my worst film of 2017, but I think it might just be the most disappointing. I'm a **massive** fan of Greg McLean, and the trailer had me proper on board with _Jungle_.

Their journey quickly turns into a terrifying ordeal as the darkest elements of human nature and the deadliest threats of the wilderness lead to an all-out fight for survival.

**Not even that bad** _Mild spoilers:_ Four douche bags hike into the jungle, one of them Hairy Potter, and not one of them has a significant reason to do so.
