Yucking it up with “Jungle Cruise”

I love the Jungle Cruise ride at Walt DisneyWorld. I know that it’s a little corny (or a lot corny), but it is an absolute favorite. I was, perhaps, a little trepidatious when it was announced that they were going to make a movie out of the ride. After all, even if one of the “Pirates” movies worked, do you remember “The Country Bears” and “The Haunted Mansion” and what they were like?

Well, I’m happy to report that “Jungle Cruise” is more good than bad. And, interestingly, at its worst when it leans into some of the stuff that make that first “Pirates” movie great.
