33.) 21 Jump Street


"We're reviving a canceled undercover police program from the '80s and revamping it for modern times. You see the guys in charge of this stuff lack creativity and are completely out of ideas, so all they do now is recycle shit from the past and expect us all not to notice."

Review: Jenko and Schmidt despised each other in high school. But when both try to make it as cops they form an unlikely alliance and become friends. They are put on an undercover program (partially as punishment) to act as high school students to uncover a drug operation that is leaving high school kids dead. As they enter high school the two reverse roles from their previous high school lives. Schmidt is now hanging with the popular kinds while Jenko is hanging out with the nerds. 


Opinion: This movie was hilarious! I laughed the whole way through. I couldn't believe that Channing Tatum could be so funny. I put off seeing it because I thought it was going to be stupid, and the idea that it was a remake of a show from the 80s I thought was a stupid idea, but it wasn't a remake it was more of a continuation from that story. 

Ideas: I would recommend this movie to any teen who is looking for a good comedy, even though it is rated R.
