Who payed the critics

Good start, but then it gets ruined

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

This was SO much fun to watch. Screw writing a review, the soundtrack just makes me want to throw a party right now. Seriously downloading that shizz immediately. In this sequel our abysmal police officers are sent to 22 Jump Street (a much better title than 21 Jump Street 2) to go undercover in a college to bust...you guessed it, another drug dealer. This drug is called "why-phy" and makes you ultra focussed before sending your mind down one heck of a trippy trip. That scene alone, was just a beauty to behold. Channing Tatum dancing in a rainbow land, adjacent to Jonah Hill listening to hellish rock music. Majestic. That obviously conveys the contrast between them and they do go down a rather formulaic personality clash only for them to regroup to try and save the day! That's my biggest problem with the film, it's far too formulaic and is pretty much a rehash of its predecessor. I get it, don't fix what is not broken but with a bigger budget this was more unfocused. In fact I don't think anyone cared for the actual plot this time. What this did do though, was pull a damn good twist in the middle which I did NOT see coming. One of those moments where I shouted "Oh. My. God. Nooo no no noooo!". If you've seen the film, you know what I mean (hint: involves parents visiting the college). The script was self-referential and clearly used this awareness to poke fun out of itself, which was a smart move. The end credits showed that hilariously. Best end credits scene I've seen in a looooong time. Jonah Hill was occasionally good but again, I just don't like him. Channing Tatum was not as consistent with his line delivery, some of them fell flat. The action scenes were well filmed and had some flamboyancy to them which made the experience all the more enjoyable. That's exactly what this is, a damn good enjoyable flick with some hysterical scenes...and a kickass soundtrack which I'm downloading right now. No joke, turning my laptop on now.

Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum, Wyatt Russell and Ice Cube star in this 2014 action-comedy sequel based on the TV series. This picks up where the last film ended with cops, Schmidt (Hill) and Jenko (Tatum) sent undercover at a local college to find a drug supplier. In the process, they begin to question their partnership and make new friends. Russell plays Zook, a football jock who befriends Jenko and Cube returns as Captain Dickson. This is a pretty good follow-up I liked better than the first and Hill & Tatum are great together. I recommend this.

Is '22 Jump Street' as good as '21 Jump Street'? Quite possibly, which is a big achievement, seeing as the original was one of the better comedies of the last 10 years! This film has just as many laughs - if not more - and does a great job of poking fun at itself and the ludicrousness of most Hollywood sequels.There's a few more car chases, but they're unconventional and quite amusing with the commentary the two leads provide. A fair bit of the humour comes from the fact that their undercover disguise as college-age students (i.e. they should be 18-21), which is totally unbelievable, seeing as Hill is 30 & Tatum is 34. Plenty of referencing the first film and stupidity of repetition in sequels (mostly by Offerman's Chief of Police - "EVERYTHING is EXACTLY the SAME"!) and even casting the bad guy from 'Bad Boys II' - Peter Stormare - as the villain in this!Pretty good support cast - the Yang Twins are great as the across-the-hall stoners, Stevens is good as the love interest and Ice Cube has more to do in this film, which is a good thing and leads to a few hilarious scenes.Best bit of the film? Probably the many joke sequel posters/trailers they show! Highly entertaining and just plain funny to see how far they can stretch a premise. Quite reminiscent of 'Tropic Thunder', but definitely had the crowd in stitches! I do hope they make a third film, but if not, both 21 & 22 Jump Street will stand as some of the best action/police comedies ever made.

The same friend who recommended that I watch 21 Jump Street also suggested that this one wasn't anywhere near as good. Unfortunately I am going to have to beg to differ because I discovered that the sequel was absolutely hilarious. In fact I was surprised that it was actually better than the original film (though it certainly wouldn't have worked anywhere near as well without the previous film). Where the first film had no qualms in laughing at itself, this film literally went overboard in poking fun not only at itself, but also the fact that it happens to be a sequel.Well, our heroes from the first film have returned, and as was suggested at the end of the first film they were going on a new assignment in college. Mind you, these guys to have a tendency of messing things up, and that is what they definitely did in the latest bust. However they are given another opportunity, and in a way it is following the similar theme of the first film – drugs are appearing in a college and they have to bust the supplier before it gets out too far. However there is one major catch – don't expect everything to be the same. For instance, if we remember from the first film that Hill was the popular one and Tatum wasn't – well everything has switched back to the way it was supposed to be.Honestly, I'm not sure if there is all that much more to say about this film, which isn't necessarily a bad thing but rather it is just what it is – an amusing film that pokes fun at itself. Sure, it is also about college life, but the thing is that there are plenty of movies out there that are also about college life. In fact there are so many that promote the college life that people seem to want to go to college simply to experience the lifestyle. Hey, I can't comment because the only reason I went to the university I went to was because of the prestige, and also the fact that a heap of my friends were going there, so yes, it was basically the lifestyle.However, the thing is that there are a couple of really interesting twists in the film, which I have to admit raises it beyond simply being another laugh out loud college flick. Okay, we also must remember that they are police officers, and they are on a case, so it sort of works both ways, but as with the previous film there is always the tendency of getting so caught up in the rolls that you are playing that you end up forgetting the reason that you happen to be there, which is basically why they ended up messing everything up. Still, since it is a comedy the major characters are of course going to have the propensity of messing everything up, and messing it up big time, which in part is where a lot of the laughs come from. It is certainly an enjoyable movie, and definitely a worthy sequel.
