The cast:
- Channing Tatum ("White House Down") Jenko thinks he has found a new soul mate, someone who thinks like him, talks like him and plays football like him.
- Jonah Hill ("Moneyball") Schmidt is jealous. He doesn't like being usurped by some jock, although there is a delectable young beauty who just might do the trick, if only she wasn't the daughter of...
- Ice Cube ("Ride Along") Captain Dickson, who is profanely emphatic that he will NOT have his daughter dating one of his cops!
- Amber Stevens (Lots of TV) Maya may be Captain Dickson's daughter, but she has a mind of her own. Looks like the apple didn't fall very far from THAT tree!
- Wyatt Russell ("Cowboys & Aliens") is Zook, the athlete who bonds with Jenko (and yes, he is the hockey-playing son of Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell).
The screening audience was ready to enjoy this one, and they did!
To me, the tongue-in-cheek imagining of future sequels (grad school, flight school, dental school, beauty school, driver's ed, ad infinitum) during the final credits scroll, was almost funnier than the movie itself.
