21 Jump Street - It's actually awesome.

Yeah... His two minute scene was the highlight of the movie.
While going to see the movie for a cameo is dubious, it was a good scene.
It was intermittently funny and entertaining (Nick Offerman's cameo was hilarious, so was the scene with Depp and DeLuise), but rarely memorable. Twelve hours after seeing the movie most I can't recall much of it, which isn't a great sign of longevity. Still, it's doing well at the box office, so there will inevitably be a sequel.

I enjoyed the movie. Those of you who have described Nick Offerman's appearance in the film as a "cameo" really need to consult a dictionary.
Relatively unknown actor playing a small part in a film =/ a cameo.
FWIW I intentionally over-stated things to better point out the absurdity of the notion of going to see a movie just to see a single, two-minute, scene of some actor.
Why, what happened in the finale that'd preclude the cameo?
He's well known for his role on Parks and Recreation (the breakout character of that series, even). He appeared in exactly one scene. Close enough.
I guess it was just one of those shows that never caught my attention the first time - so why go for a second helping? :/

I'm sold, thanks T'Baio
Love that fat fellow's work, especially in Superbad. Easily the best movie ever.

Saw this earlier today. I am surprised that I actually liked it. I thought the commericals looked stupid, not funny, and I was highly skeptical of Channing Tatum.
However, I've got to stay that the film got the premise of 21 Jump Street, and even though they turned it into a comedy, they didn't turn it into a travesty. Perhaps what won me over was how the movie mocked the whole remake trend early on in the captain's monologue to the Tatum and Hill. It was very spot on. I also like how the new bromance was paralled by the original bromance. The cameos were all great. I'm sure I missed a lot of references to the old show I haven't watched it in a long time, but what I caught was cool.
