After making their way through high school, big changes are in store for officers Shmidt and Jenko when they go deep undercover at a local college.

Rating: 9/10 (31 December 2014)

22 Jump Street succeeds entirely because if its own self-awareness that it is, ostensibly, an obligatory studio sequel intended to achieve success through mimicry. With the filmmakers in on the joke, there is breathing room to approach the material with clarity and purpose, hitting the necessary character beat and maintaining the necessary consistency in tone with the first film. Tatum and Jonah Hill make the ride once again worthwhile whether covering the same type of material or breaking into new territory. Marital banter, physical comedy gags, a reversed loser or winner perspective within the college setting, the duo are given enough to do in order to generate the necessary renewed passion and commitment to the material.
