You know how when you play a combat-style video game and you die, you revert back to a specific point in the game and keep trying until you succeed? This is basically the movie version of that. And probably the most important thing to get right in such a framework is the pacing, and they do it well here. A great watch.

22 Jump Street (2014)
Rated: R - Runtime: 109 min
tesg's Rating: Two and one half stars (out of four)
This movie feels like they wrote a rough outline and improvised the rest. Like 10 percent script and 90 percent improvisation. "Cannonball Run 2" feels more put together than this.
Having said that, the two funniest scenes of any movie all year are in this, and it's a stupid fun ride overall.
