Seriously, if you don’t know what the twist is do NOT let anyone tell you. It’s one of the most surprising and surreal moments in any comedy and the strange part is when it dawns on the viewer that it’s been in play since the beginning of the film. Still, the comedic high point comes not from the story or the characters but one of the most brilliant twists ever committed to film. She’s one of the few characters who break stereotype and she plays a strangely well rounded role given the material. Hill and Tatum are aptly supported by a talented supporting cast, with Brie Larson particularly good as the love interest for Hill. The prime example is Ellie Kemper as the science teacher making advances on a student, something that could’ve had many more jokes wrung out of it. Characters drop out and return at different intervals, meaning that some potential comedy is left untapped. In terms of flow the movie stutters quite a bit, with major plot threads often taking a back seat to goofiness and stand alone scenes. The story is nothing to write home about – Jenko and Schmidt are tasked with uncovering the people behind the distribution of a new drug that has already claimed one student. It was when the they first arrive and can’t put a name to the Hipsters and Cos-Players as easily as they can the Goths and Nerds that we start to wake up to the fact that there’s some good writing behind the film. Seeing this jock and nerd return to high school only to find that their roles have reversed provides a surprisingly on the nose commentary about how much teenage values and attitudes have changed over the decades. Some of the dialogue is crude but imaginative enough to be funny, and the physical routines also hit the mark (such as talking to the school coach while tripping out). Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum may not be redefining the meaning of comedy but they bounce off each other well and have pretty good timing. Retooling the concept as a wacky comedy basing most of it’s jokes around swearing and obvious fish out of water routines doesn’t make it sound any more interesting. Most things that existed in the late 1980s should be left there, even if they did kick-start the career of Johnny Depp. Review: Taking a very, very 80’s television show and adapting it to a modern is not one that appeals. Jenko and Schmidt find themselves going back to school.
Due to their youthful appearances and immature behaviour they get assigned to Jump Street, a unit that specializes in infiltrating teenage culture to solve crime. Plot: Jenko and Schmidt found themselves on the opposite ends of the social spectrum in high school, but when they join the police academy and become partners their different strengths and weaknesses compliment each other.

Based on the Television Series created by Patrick Hasburgh & Stephen J. The film is directed by Phil Lord & Christopher Miller. By casting Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum as fish-out-of-water buffoons, the irreverent result feels fresher than most 80s-show reboots. More importantly, they both find they are still dealing with all of the adolescent problems they didn't address in their own teen years - and both will have to confront the terror and anxiety of being a teenager again and all the issues they thought they had left behind. A man is shot after attacking a police officer. Guns are drawn and fired by both police officers (undercover and uniformed) and criminals. Trouble is, teenagers today are nothing like what they were just a few years ago, and Schmidt and Jenko discover that everything they think they know about being a teenager, from sex to drugs to rock and roll, is all wrong. Many fight scenes throughout, most without any blood. They trade in their guns and badges for backpacks and use their youthful appearances to go undercover.
