Critics Consensus

Thanks to muscular work from director/co-writer Max Winkler and his stars, Jungleland punches above its weight in a crowded genre.

3/5

Jungleland is a likeable film, but a somewhat lightweight one.

Here is a world of seedy gangsters and flame-hearted girls, with a plot that slowly unravels with each increasingly implausible turn.

3/5

Neon-lit diners, lonely service stations and empty parking lots are straight out of an Edward Hopper painting in this handsome, gloomy drama.

When you hear those hits, you feel them. It affects your body. It makes you cringe. Yeah, they nailed that part.

4/5

A road movie is about enjoying the time you spend with characters, and in that sense Jungleland is a trip worth taking. An understated exploration of brotherly love and broken dreams, it stands out in a crowded weight class.

Even the few-and-far-between fight scenes are so bog-standard as to convey no visceral thrill whatsoever ... simply another lifeless piece of a clichéd whole.

I thought the movie was a little slow, but if you’re patient, the ending wraps everything together, and I found the journey to get to the crescendo of the movie to have made sense.

Overall, it's a pretty decent movie, but kind of slow moving. It's a mix of a travel buddy movie and the little guy going against the big guy. Worth a watch but I wouldn't go out of my way to see it

Great chemistry between the three main characters, the relationship between the brothers is very believable. Not enough character depth so you find yourself not rooting for them as much as much as you could be. It's a shame really, if the fight scenes were better and the story didn't have too many holes in it Jungleland would be a solid four star film

there is a lot of stuff going on in this movie but i feel that it almost entirely lacks style or character and i was unsure what the point was supposed to be. it has acceptable aesthetics and some decent acting but it was extremely boring and i had zero investment in any of the characters. it lacks action and is supposed to be a drama but it's not really nuanced enough to get any feels out of me.
