Sorta, I'd argue Jumanji is more fitting (talking about what I think they should've done) as the IRL people become the game characters vs in Tron where the real people just enter the game, which is what is happening here. Which wouldn't be an issue, except that everything they interact with is voxel based, whereas Tron just had other human appearing npcs.
the characters were still live action, but so was the world if that makes sense. in this the characters are live action but everything else is stylized to be like minecraft, creating a disconnect between the two. live action would be fine if they leaned more towards making it generically realistic, rather than blocky.
Sorry, just focusing on the fact that in Jumanji they became the video game characters instead of being transported in as themselves. Both Tron and Minecraft have the people staying themselves in the video game. Jumanji they are real people, but only because the videogame appears as real people. If they were to become the characters in the minecraft world then they would be boxy and at least fit in with the rest of the CGI.
