Plot Summary: In the action-comedy "21 Jump Street," Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and Jenko (Channing Tatum) are more than ready to leave their adolescent problems behind. Joining the police force and the secret Jump Street unit, they use their youthful appearances to go undercover in a local high school. As they trade in their guns and badges for backpacks, Schmidt and Jenko risk their lives to investigate a violent and dangerous drug ring. But they find that high school is nothing like they left it just a few years earlier *and neither expects that they will have to confront the terror and anxiety of being a teenager again and all the issues they thought they had left behind.
Remember the TV a little from when I was younger, but regardless I wanted to see this movie as it looked like it would have some good laughs. Actually ended up being really good, one of the better comedy movies that I've seen. Channing Tatum actually fits the comedy role pretty good which I didn't expect and Jonah Hill does his usual thing. Worth going to see if you haven't yet.
