Funny as expected

Rating: 8/10 (17 March 2012)

Checked out the movie "21 Jump Street," starring Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum, and Ice Cube. This movie is about two guys that were not cool with each other in high school, but ended up being best friends, as they got older though helping each other become cops. When they became cops they ended up having to team up to stop a high school drug lord from selling illegal drugs to students within the school.
Yes, this movie is as funny as you expect it to be. I will admit that I was scared that the only funny parts would have been the parts we seen in the previews, but that wasn't the case in this film. Just about everyone that participated in this movie gave you something to laugh about. This movie was funny pretty much the whole way though. You could tell they had a great time filming this movie. This movie wasn't just funny, it also has an enjoyable plot that wasn't over the top. The plot fit very well and the extra character in this movie made sense. This movie is a "great time" for a hour and a half.
Even Channing Tatum was funny. I point him out specifically because it was a little hard for me to see him playing a funny role in a film. Being though in other movies he usually played a more serious role. Besides that, look at him. He doesn't quite strike you as the person that is going to make you laugh. All in all, he has some parts that were pretty funny.
Overall, I felt like this was a movie that was meant to be funny. I felt as though this was a movie that you wanted to escape life for a hour and a half and just laugh as much as you could, and this movie provides that. This movie has good laughs, good plot, and its a good movie! I give the movie the rating of 8 out of 10.
