There are some hilarious bits here including a few running scenes with a motorcycle gang, which are just hilarious. It also doesn't hurt that the two of them can work so well together and can play off one another and really take a joke and run with it. I think the film works so well because the two leads actors are simply so good in their roles.

I will admit that I never watched the original series so I'm not even going to try to compare them but I did find this movie to be hilarious at times and quite often very clever in its attempt to show some homages as well as spoofs. When there the once dork Hill finds himself popular while the once popular Tatum finds himself with the losers as they try to track the drugs.

The film has some comic moments, but will disappoint people who think they're going to see a big screen version of what was a big hit in the late 80s.Ģ1 Jump Street (2012) *** (out of 4) Reboot of the 80s TV series features Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum playing cops who go undercover in high school to try and discover who's passing around a new drug that has already killed one kid. But I've seen it all before and done better even in the Police Academy movies which never pretended to be comedy of the lowest common denominator. By the advertising I knew I was not going to get the old familiar 21 Jump Street other than cameo appearances by some of the series regulars back in the day. For him this is a big do over, but he barely keeps his mind on the assignment. Hill was a nerdy kid who couldn't get anyone of the opposite sex to look at him. Tatum was a popular jock and an academic dud who barely graduated. Tatum and Hill have some history between them. These two manage to mismatch their covers, but incredibly enough it seems to work out for them. Their rather impatient captain, Ice Cube sends them into a high school to bust a drug ring after the death of one of the students. The old Jump Street program that was in an abandoned chapel is being revived for the new millenia and Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum have been selected for the program because of their youthful demeanor. Such is not the case here where you've got a couple of misfit cops who might have graduated from the Police Academy that George Gaynes was the commandant of.
The program that launched Johnny Depp as a star had its funny moments, usually supplied by Peter DeLuise, but the episodes tackled some very serious topics and many of them were outstanding drama without a laugh in them. This is definitely not the 21 Jump Street that I remember from the 80s.
