Wow! I was not expecting to enjoy
"21 Jump Street" at all, but it actually had me laughing the entire time.
The interplay between Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum was wonderful, and I was pleasantly surprised by Tatum's ability to play a comic role. The humour, while at times gross-out, was often subtle and satirical; broadening it's market appeal. I also loved the unexpected cameos towards the end, which, without wishing to give too much away, were a nice nod to the 1980s series by the same name.
Let's be honest, this is not a high concept film that's going to change the way we think about cinema, but if you need a good laugh you could do far worse!
