Just as Good as the TV show

Rating: 8/10 (31 March 2013)

"21 Jump Street" was a much better film than I had originally anticipated. I thought it would be much like any other television show turned to the big screen. I was proved wrong. The cast included Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill. I shy away from most of Jonah Hill's films and almost this one too, but after seeing it, I am glad I did. Tatum was as good as usual as he is in most (if not all of his films) and Hill was not as annoying or obnoxious.
If you are a fan of the television show on which this film is based, you will be happy to know Johnny Depp makes a cameo appearance. I will not say what he does, as I do not want to ruin it for any readers who haven't seen this film yet. I laughed throughout this film at the hilarious antics the two stars get into. I am hoping that the sequel is just as good.
