Schmidt and Jenko 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. (Columbia Pictures)
Clever and very funny. There's a lot of swearing which usually I don't notice but it was like they were going for the Guiness Book of Records or something. All the jokes involving the teachers seemed to fall flat except the hallucination scene. [Spoiler]The Johnny Depp cameo was spoiled for me by a Glide FM DJ called Sophie on a review I listened to on Bleeding Cool which is a pity because as good as it was it would have been better as a total surprise.
