Movie Review: 21 Jump Street


Funniest Movie this year- or so far anyway! ( except Hollywood does a second tropic thunder)

So I went to see this movie for 1 reason: Johnny Depp (the love of my life)! So there was a tv show in the late 80's and early 90's called 21 jump street which made the career of Mr Depp and transformed him into a household name before he became this famous!

This movie is a reboot of the tv show and has cameos from all of the stars from the tv show.
The movie stars a recently slim Jonah Hill and the ever good looking Channing Tatum in their funniest yet. The movie also stars Rob Riggle, Ellie Kenpner, Ice Cube, Dave Franco (yes he's James Franco's brother), Chris Parnell and a couple other people.

Plot Summary:
A pair of underachieving cops are sent back to a local high school to blend in and bring down a synthetic drug ring.

Fun trivia:
1. Jonah Hill is one of the writers of the movie.
2. Emma Stone and Jennifer Lawrence auditioned for parts in the movie.
3. Channing Tatum passed on the movie twice, Jonah Hill had to convince him to do it.

The movie was seriously funny, the movie plot was strong and the supporting characters were great! This might just be the best comedy of 2012 (maybe Ted from Seth Macfarlane might be funnier, we just have to wait).

Comments always welcome!! :D
