21 jump street is clearly better. this one had lulls in between the funny parts... "my name is jeff" (they try and figure out who's the dealer) jenko finding out schmidt slept with the daughter (they find out who's the dealer) schmidt's kiss fight.
It was hilarious at times, but overall the movie was extremely stupid. I really wish they could have made either movie a good movie AND funny (like 40 Year Old Virgin or Knocked Up).
Just say this movie last night. I think it was hilarious. They went a little overboard with meta but it didn't put me off that much. Spoiler When Jenko was sitting there trying to piece things together, I literally sat there laughing and begging him to get there faster. When he finally got there, it was HILARIOUS. btw Amber Stevens is HOTTTTT
Saw it today. Good stuff. I like stupid comedies as long as they are self aware. I dislike Tatum and Hill, but I've liked both of these movies.
I liked it, probably slightly more than the first one. It's the kind of comedy where if you think the preview is funny you will like it, otherwise don't bother.
I read something this week about how Channing Tatum is the most universally liked star in Hollywood right now. His movies draw equally for men and women and there are virtually no people who dislike him.
I find that hard to believe. With the exception of Stop-Loss and these two movies, he's been in a lot of crap. I mean, I wish him well and all, but he's usually in crap movies giving crap performances. And if his Gambit movie stinks, I imagine there will be many more who will not be fans of his.
