22 Jump Street22 Jump Street being afraid of not being successful as the first one; attempts to stay on the same track and it works for mostly the first half an hour, after which the movie dips and loses its track until the climax arrives which is twice the fun than the whole movie.

it was funny enough to consider as a good part 2 of the 21 jump street movie . it mocked itself few times saying its just like the 1st time but it wasn't which was a good turn seeing the same thing over and over again is frustrating which this movie kept to its minimum job well done by Channing Tatum, Jonah Hill was good Just like the 1st time ;)

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.

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.
