Too long, too little substance

Rating: 4/10 (11 June 2017)

There are a lot of week spots here, sadly. It's clear that "22 Jump Street" doesn't take itself seriously, but that doesn't make it funny.
It's hard doing good a comedy. It takes good writing, timing and spot-on dialogue, none of which is present here. The film would have benefited from a shorter running time, and should perhaps have ended after the first arrestment. There's simply not enough material for the running time it has. Hill and Tatum have a few nice moments, but it's not enough and their chemistry is not very strong.
