My Thoughts: I enjoyed this one quite a bit. I liked the strong female lead character. Though I will say it isn't quite the movie I was expecting...I somehow had the misconception that this was a Mulan type film with her going to fight a war. But I found the film to be a lot of fun to watch... I really got a kick out of her 3 little brothers. This one is well worth the time put in to watch it.

Stars: Martin Lawrence as Detective Marcus Burnett Will Smith as Detective Mike Lowrey Jordi Molla as Hector Juan Carlos "Johnny" Tapia Gabrielle Union as Syd Peter Stormare as Alexei Theresa Randle as Theresa Plot: Hang on for maximum mayhem, full-on fun and the wildest chase scenes ever put on film! The action and comedy never stop when superstars Martin Lawrence and Will Smith reunite as out-of-control trash-talking buddy cops. Bullets fly, cars crash, and laughs explode as they pursue a whacked-out drug lord from the streets of Miami to the barrios of Cuba. But the real fireworks result when Lawrence discovers that playboy Smith is secretly romancing his sexy sister, Gabrielle Union (Bring it On). Director Michael Bay (Pearl Harbor, Armageddon) and producer Jerry Bruckheimer (Pirates of the Carribean, Black Hawk Down) deliver a high-speed, high-octane blockbuster that will blow you away! "...Year's most action-packed and high-flying flick." (Shawn Edwards, FOX TV). Extras:
My Thoughts: While I still enjoyed the movie... it wasn't as good as part 1. The storyline... while kept me interested... wasn't as good as the first. The comedy definitely wasn't there like it was in the previous movie. But over-all not a bad movie. Though I did expect more from it. I think one problem was that they stretched it out too long. It may have been better if they stuck with no more then a 2 hour movie. While I can see myself watching it again... I wouldn't as much as the first part. But it is worth seeing though.My Rating: Out of a Possible 5 ![]() ![]() ![]() (From June Marathon: Cast Chain on June 8th, 2012) Pete's Pilots, a review by addicted2dvd![]() 21 Jump Street It all begins here, as baby-faced rookie Officer Tom Hanson (Johnny Depp) is assigned to an elite squad of young undercover cops - Judy Hoffs (Holly Robison Peete), Doug Penhall (Peter DeLuise) and Harry Truman Ioki (Dustin Nguyen) - to infiltrate high schools and fight crime. Frederic Forrest and Steven Williams co-star in this classic first season that also features such guest stars as Jason Priestley, Josh Brolin, David Paymer, Sherilyn Fenn and Blair Underwood in what became Fox's first runaway hit and remains on of the coolest cop shows in TV history! Pilot (Part 1 & 2) My Thoughts: I really enjoyed re-watching this pilot. They did a good job at introducing all the characters. I liked how it followed how Hanson got into the Jumpstreet program. I kinda wish it showed that for all the characters... but they had so a good and already full 2-part pilot episode that I can understand why they didn't. When I originally watched this show I never cared for the hippie captain of the Jumpstreet program. But I did get used to him. And no sooner I got used to him they replaced him. Go figure!
