This movie should have sucked. A comedic remake of a hit drama from the 80’s starring two actors, one you’d never peg for a funnyman. Not only does it work, it is one of the funniest flicks of the year. Jonah and Tatum have fantastic chemistry together, Ice Cube is gleefully furious as the “angry black police captain” and the laughs come from a very welcome R rating the is used to the extreme. Cameos also abound and one in particular gives fans approval to not only like this new version, but also still appreciate the original. 21 is a 10…bring on 2!
