21 JUMP STREET
5 out of 5 stars

“you have a right to.... ...suck my dick, motherfucker!” 
– jenko

at first glance, you may think this is just an uncreative reboot of the 80s show, but it’s sooooooo not. i am still laughing from this one because it is so silly, creative, and HILARIOUS. jonah hill helped co-write the screenplay for this, and it’s just 21 jump street: superbad style. GREAT scenes, GREAT comedic banter between a really funny channing tatum (i can’t believe i just said that) and jonah hill, and even features a cameo from the guys who did it in the 80s... :P

so, the movie starts off with an eminem wanabe lookin’ schmidt (jonah hill) circa 2005, who decides he’s going to ask the pretty girl out to prom. he starts choking in front of her, all the while super jock and dumbass jenko (channing tatum) is ROFLMAO-ing at his locker nearby. (OMG the hair!) jenko is then called into the principal’s office, and he gets the terrifying news that he won’t be able to go to prom this year. (AHHHHHH) both end up crying outside... few years pass, and schmidt and jenko reunite at the police recruitment center because they both want to be cops. jenko SUCKS at all the law and basicaly fails every academic test given to him at the academy, but schmidt helps him out by becoming his tutor. aaaaaand...schmidt SUCKS at all the physical training, so jenko returns the favor by becoming his trainer. soon, they graduate and become...park police. (HAH!) while on duty, they spot these bad-ass motorcycle gang members selling drugs at the park, and while they try to make the arrest, jenko botches it because he couldn’t remember what the miranda rights were. (LOL) their captain decides to stick them in a program called “jump street”, where youthful lookin’ cops can go undercover in HS and shut down HS-related operations. apparently, there’s a drug circling around their old high school that’s blowing kids’ minds and making them overdose. their mission: to infiltrate the dealers and find the supplier. but only if it were that easy... as schmidt and jenko realize...high school has changed A LOT since their days. as jenko puts it: “the cool kids are these eco-friendly, crunchy-granola types. something ain’t right with this captain. i blame glee.” :P

BEST scenes: when jenko and schmidt get high from the shit angel drug, the not-so-explosive car chase, schmidt’s HOUSE PARTY!, the bathroom scene, PROM night, when jenko bonds with his science nerd friends, captain ice cube. i mean with lines like this:

“HEY, HEY! STOP FUCKIN’ WITH KOREAN JESUS! HE AIN’T GOT TIME FOR YO PROBLEMS! HE BUSY...WITH KOREAN SHIT!”

LOL, i love the fact that 21 jump street is an abandoned korean church... :P
