I watched Jumanji The Next Level

with my granddaughter last night. I laughed so hard during the first few minutes the big dog started barking, and the little dog jumped in my lap wondering what was wrong. Even with the dogs confused about Grandma making strange noises, I couldn't contain my laughter. Kevin Hart is the funniest man I've ever seen.

I think madcap is a perfect description. It's probably not for everybody, but the attempts to not only explain virtual reality to old people in young bodies, but also to cope with the slow uptake of details in a respectful way, and the realization it was futile, was hilarious to me. I would watch it again.

Think they are really underrated

Kevin Hart and the Rock make a good comedy duo. I’ve seen interviews with them and they seem to have a really natural chemistry. On body types alone they make a funny pair.

I also love when actors channel other actors. Seeing the Rock and Hart channel Danny Devito and Danny Glover was a real hoot.

Who is channeling Danny Devito was so funny. I knew he was going to say, "I think you should explain that one more time!" lol

I couldn't stop laughing at the early scene in the plane, when Danny Devito/The Rock deny they got a letter from the pilot, and is suddenly holding a letter in his hands, and Jack Black and Karen Gillam's characters trying to explain the situation.
