My Review-
Having never really watched the original television show, which this movie is based on I really had no bad ideas going into it. I wanted to watch this show since the first preview that I had seen. After seeing this movie it did not disappoint me in any way, everyone was funny within their characters and they did not over do it either. The main person I was surprise at was Channing Tatum, who at first I did not think could do much comedy, since he mostly does romantic movies. After this movie he should do more comedy, because he is a very funny person. I liked how Johnny Depp went and did a cameo for the show that made him famous. If you have not seen the movie I will not reveal what his cameo is. Jonah Hill is a good writer, in his first story and screenplay it was very funny, and I think he should write some more. I would like to see what he has to offer in the near future or sooner if he is already writing something else. The movie hinted a sequel, which I hope gets made, a will be as funny or funnier then this one, because it was just the right amount of raunchy comedy. Even though Ice Cube had a some what small part as well, he did a better job in this comedy then some of the other ones that he came out with in the last couple years. If a sequel is made, I will gladly see it in theaters. This time a lot sooner.
