Though the main ensemble has racial diversity, there's also ethnic stereotyping in the character of Ming (Awkwafina) and when White avatars use African American Vernacular English (AAVE), or "Blaccents," when embodied by a Black character. A little bit of background drinking is seen. There's also less flirting and sexual tension in this installment, though characters still kiss, and there's general "smoldering" by Bravestone. Language includes frequent use of "goddamn," and "holy s-t," as well as a couple of references to body parts ("boobs," "testicles," "balls") - but not nearly as many as in the previous movie. Violence remains a little edgy, with the game characters dying in various ways, including animal attacks, being struck by poisoned darts, falling, and being blown up - but all without showing any blood. And Danny DeVito and Danny Glover are added to the mix this time for some multigenerational humor as Spencer ( Alex Wolff) and his motley crew of friends are sucked back into the perilous Jumanji video game for another high-stakes adventure. Stars Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Kevin Hart, Jack Black, and Karen Gillan all return. Parents need to know that Jumanji: The Next Level is the sequel to 2017's hit Jumanji reboot.
