Hot Take: Jungle Cruise's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Look, I wanted to love Jungle Cruise. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.
