Unfunny movie

Rating: 2/10 (24 August 2014)

I'll give them an extra star for trying, but this is the worst movie I have seen this summer. Not funny, lots of unnecessary profanity in the name of comedy, sub par acting and a vanilla pudding script and plot. I had expected more from the two main actors but they did not deliver. It was even a waste of the $3 I spent going to the matinée. I know this was to be some sort of comedic parody on the original made for TV drama 21 Jump Street. However, even in that fashion it is a complete flop. C Tatum is a decent actor and seems really out of place in this movie. His sidekick however does belong in this movie. His sidekick(partner) being unattractive, overweight and basically I wonder how he even made it in Hollywood. His folks must be rich and bribed a Producer along the way so he could make it to this film. Whatever the reason, he is certainly not a comedian. To be honest, C Tatum is not a good comedian either and that is just one more reason this movie part is out of place for him, and consequently his performance is lackluster. I give it 2 stars, and I am being generous.
