Starring Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill, the latter of whom co-wrote the script, the movie is also keenly clever, a knowingly shrewd take on the subgenre as a whole, firing one comical trope after another while simultaneously hurling jabs at its own expense. But that feat is all the more impressive when also conceding it is an adaptation of a cult television series from the late 1980s. That the buddy-cop comedy can still deliver eight years later - and after several repeat viewings - is quite the achievement, in and of itself. Right from the opening moments, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller's 21 Jump Street start issuing the laughs and keep the laughter going until the end credits roll.
