10 Movie Plot Holes That Will Destroy Your Childhood

4. Jumanji - Dicing With Accelerated Development

Jumanji tells that age-old story about what happens when you get sucked into a board game as a kid, only to be released 30 years in the future having spent half your life inside it. That's what happens to Alan Parrish when he's just a teenager, anyway, after he decides to play the board game of the movie's title with a girl he fancies, Sarah, who then becomes traumatised for life.

In the "present", the board game is played again by a brother and sister duo named Judy and Peter, and Alan is brought back out of the game, only this time he's Robin Williams. God, the pitch for this movie must've sounded insane. Okay, so to complete the game and therefore the movie, Alan, Sarah, Judy, and Peter all must unite and play together. When they successfully manage to finish Jumanji, time resets itself and we find that we're suddenly back when Alan and Sarah were children, before they decided to play the game - so the last, like, 30 years never happened.

But the movie then fails to acknowledge what happens as a result of Alan and Sarah having kept their older personalities - they're essentially their adults selves trapped in children's bodies, and we know this because they remember everything. It's illogical and creepy.
