"Good Action-Comedy!"

Rating: 6/10 (2 January 2015)

Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum, Dave Franco, Brie Larson and Ice Cube star in this 2012 action-comedy based on the TV series. Schmidt (Hill) and Jenko (Tatum) are 2 young men who went to high school together, but were from opposite crowds. Years later, they both joined the police force and became friends as well as partners. Soon, they're assigned to Jump Street where they must go undercover as High School students to find dealers supplying synthetic drugs to students. In the process, they relive their high school failures and overcome them. Franco (Brother of James Franco) plays Eric, a student who is one of the dealers, Larson plays Molly, Eric's friend whom gets close with Schmidt and Cube plays Police Captain, Dickson. Original stars, Johnny Depp, Peter DeLuise and Holly Robinson Peete also make appearances. This is a good action-comedy and Hill & Tatum are great together. I recommend this.
