As my father approaches his 80th birthday though, my reflection on that period provides…

Movie Review: 21 Jump Street

Posted March 26, 2012 by Capt. Tristan Hinderliter

“21 Jump Street,” the new action/comedy flick from directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller, starts off strong and has some truly funny moments, but it ultimately proves uneven, falling prey to the pitfalls of this hybrid genre. The film is a remake of the 1987-1991 TV series of the same name, with a few modern twists and a few more laughs. The movie stars Jonah…
