I’d never seen the old T.V. show featuring Johnny Depp, but
that didn’t matter in this comedy shocker that Jack and I didn’t see coming.
Important note: This was a perfect movie for anyone willing
to indulge their crass inner silly teenager. If you can imagine yourself
howling with laughter at the sight of a YouTube clip of the five stages of a
hot new drug ingested by a progressively manic high schooler, snap up a couple
tickets and treat yourself.
A (slimmed-down!) Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum were high
school failures who’ve just joined the police force… and pretty much fail at
that too. Their last chance is to be re-assigned to an experimental unit of the
force, working undercover to infiltrate and disrupt an emerging drug trade.
It’s a highly physical comedy masked as an action movie.
Shootouts, car chases, bicycle chases, even a production of Peter Pan are on
the short list. There’s even a guest star appearance at the end.
