This review is from 22 Jump Street [2 Discs] [Includes Digital Copy] [UltraViolet] [Blu-ray/DVD] [2014]
Comedy sequels are notorious for essentially being their first movie for a second time and not bringing anything new to the table. Since this criticism has become a consensus, comedy-sequel writers have tried and failed to avoid this problem. It kind of just is what it is. Nothing is as good the second time around. Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum made for an unlikely duo in 2012’s “21 Jump Street,” a remake of the 1987 television series. This odd couple had great chemistry, and made for a good, if unoriginal buddy cop movie. Schmidt (Hill) and Jenko (Tatum) are cops who did a great undercover operation a few years ago, where they went undercover as high school students to stop a new and lethal drug from getting into the wrong hands. Now, they are going undercover at a local college to basically do the same operation all over again. What makes this different from other basically-the-same-movie comedy sequels is its meta self-awareness. We know that it’s the same story as the original, and it knows that it is. What pushes this into uncharted territory is that it knows that we know it. The script is stuffed with self-aware jokes that went over the heads of alot of people in my screening - it was like I was the only one who got these jokes. Channing Tatum, who is a complete failure as a dramatic actor, can be very good in a comedy if the script is there. He and Jonah Hill play off one another very well, and this film becomes the odd comedy sequel that demands to be watched along with its predecessor - it’s not a step down from the original, and it’s just as much fun as the first. Grade; B+

If you're looking for a movie to watch with a friend, then look no further than 22 Jump Street. It not only lives up to its predecessor, but exceeds it. Me and my best friend Leet Larry had a ball watching it. In this bromance comedy from the directors of the Lego Movie two cops must go undercover as college students to find the supplier of a new drug that is on campus. Sounds like just another day at school right? Wrong, you know? Let me say, Channing Tatum steals the show. Jonah Hill is solid, but Tatum takes the laughs to the next level with his inspired weirdness and sheer unpredictability. My best friend Leet Larry hates Channing Tatum and still swears he thought Magic Mike was a movie about women when he went to see the midnight premiere. Well after 22 Jump Street Larry admits that Channing isn't such a bad guy after all. He still doesn't like McConaughey though, but that's another story. I don't want to give away any spoilers, but there is an octopus in the movie. Go see it. 5 stars, you know?

Tatum and Hill are back better than before, the story ties in very well with the previous movie, the opening of the film sets the mood very quickly with good comical action and witty laugh out loud one-liners, their mission this time to go to college to foil a drug dealing ring with hilarious consequences of course, it has all you typical cliché buddy comedy ideas and twists but does it really well with funny set ups and situations for both characters, the jokes and one-liners are very funny especially from Hill as he's more pro on the comedy scene and just does what he always does, Ice cube is also very funny to watch too, this is one of the years best comedies and buddy cop movies, if you like the original its a must, juvenile laugh out loud silliness at its best. Make sure you watch the end credits for some hilarious insight into possible sequels!! And there is a moment after the credits too!

All of the recycled jokes makes this fall so short of what made '21 Jump Street' funny. This movie spent too much time trying to make fun of itself that it ended up really not being funny (with the exception of one scene). It does have one or two scenes that I can say I actually laughed at, but the rest of the movie is the characters actually telling the audience (yes, breaking the wall several times) that what they are watching is nothing new and really the same thing, if not less, as the first. There is even a segment where they poke fun at the budget of the actual movie and how they went over it so the special effects and everything had to be kept to a minimum. This film tried way to hard to be a satire comedy of itself and it failed. I admit that I loved '21 Jump Street' but this sequel comes nowhere close to it.

In 22 Jump Street, officers Schmidt (Hill) and Jenko (Tatum) move with their department across the street and go deep undercover at a local college. Although this sequel, like most comedy sequels, essentially rip off the same storyline, it still has its funny moments and is at least honest about the rip off by making jokes and references about it, all throughout the movie. Hill and Tatum are a funny duo together as their comedy chemistry is pretty good and leads to some awkwardly funny moments. Although this isn't as funny as the first (most comedy sequels aren't), I still enjoyed the movie and had some laughs throughout. If you liked the first with its silly one liners and funny awkward moments, then you will like this.

This movie is one ridiculously insane social commentary about the movie industry, the nature of sequels, and pop culture. I am truly amazed at just how clever and well written this movie. I lost count how many times I was laughing myself silly. It is just so incredibly funny. Throughout the movie, they're constantly talking about the police budget and how they can't afford to do explosions, action, etc (comparing it to a movie budget) and various other things...yet...well, things happen (spoiler). Anyways, go see it. If you're a frequent movie goer, you'll get alot of the jokes since they poke fun of just about everything involving the movie industry.

21 Jump Street was a great comedy, one of the best of the year, however 22 Jump Street proves that you can make a good sequel to a comedy. The typical format to a comedy sequel is to copy or duplicate what worked the first time and in some cases even reuse the plot of the original. Whats unique is that 22 Jump Street is another one of those movies. For the most part the movie plays out closely as the first one does. But the smart thing the writer/directors did was making nods (in a parody of itself way) that it is repeating the first film various scenarios. Everyone is on point again and the comedy is just as strong as ever.
