22 Jump Street (2014)
This movie is surprisingly good. The premise of the movie follows the movie's trajectory in the real world. The first case worked out so well that the team got funding to do another case, "exactly the same." Ice Cube repeats this line several times, and predictably the case turns out to not go exactly the same way despite their protestations. What is so refreshing and funny is that everyone is in on the joke. What is the same is the bromance between Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill that just works so well. They have a relationship that is almost at a James Franco-Seth Rogen level.
The best part of the film is actually the end credits. They aren't bloopers but rather we see clips of hypothetical sequels that become more and more ridiculous to the audience's delight. There are plenty of cameos in the movie, and even some high profile actors who show up in just a couple of seconds of credits for a laugh.
