This week's Thursday Movie Picks is Undercover

I went for undercover cops with my picks today....but if I had gone for a non cop route it would have been Never Been Kiss and The East.

21 Jump Street (2012)
A pair of cops go undercover at a high school to catch a drug supplier. The movie was such a surprise for me. I didn't think I would like it, but I did. I found it really funny. Still haven't seen the sequel and would like to. 

Miss Congeniality (2000)
An FBI Agent goes undercover as a Miss United States beauty pageant contestant to prevent a bombing. I don't like it as much my other two picks, but it was still a fun comedy. It's sequel though was just not as good. 

Face/Off (1997)
An FBI agent undergoes a facial transplant surgery and assumes the identity of a terrorist to uncover the location of the bomb from the terrorist's brother. The whole facial transplant is just so silly, what about his body right? The plot may be ridiculous but it still is a fun action movie.

  1. I can't believe I didn't think of Miss Congeniality! It's such an adorable film.

  2. I almost matched you completely this week! I've never seen Face/Off but it sounds like a lot of fun.

  3. The only one I haven’t seen is 21 Jump Street because I can’t stand Jonah Hill but I may give it a try because I heard nothing but good things about it. Miss Congeniality is a fun comedy that I seem to watch on tv every time it’s on even though they cut it up. Face/Off is beyond stupid for the reason you mentioned but it’s enjoyable fun

  4. I also went with Miss Congeniality as it's a movie I love. I agree about the sequel, it's not as good, which is why once was enough for me. I enjoyed 21 Jump Street, despite Jonah Hill being in it, and I almost picked it myself. I still haven't seen your third pick. I know, shame on me.

    1. Miss Congeniality sequel - I think they were also trying too hard to work the whole pageant congeniality thing into the plot.

  5. We match on 21 Jump Street! I really liked Miss Congeniality when I was a kid, I don't think I've seen it since. Though now I have that "One in a Million" song stuck in my head just thinking about it.

    1. Miss Congeniality - I haven't seen it since too and I've definitely forgotten the song you mentioned.
