Ep 83 - 22 Jump Street (2014)
from R Rating Movie Reviews · host Dan Tyler
22 Jump Street takes everything that made 21 Jump Street hilarious and turns it up to eleven. Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum return as Schmidt and Jenko, this time going undercover at college to track down a drug dealer. But can a sequel that openly admits it's repeating the same formula actually be as funny as the original? In this R Rating movie review, we break down 22 Jump Street with an honest look at its comedy, action, ridiculous set pieces, and the incredible chemistry between Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum. We'll talk about the movie's hilarious self-awareness, its constant jokes about sequels, the supporting cast, Ice Cube's return as Captain Dickson, and why Phil Lord and Christopher Miller managed to make a sequel that might be even more entertaining than the original. We'll also discuss the movie's surprisingly great emotional core, Schmidt and Jenko's friendship, the college setting, and whether 22 Jump Street proves that sometimes the best way to make a sequel is to simply make fun of sequels. Is 22 Jump Street one of the greatest comedy sequels ever made? Does it actually surpass 21 Jump Street? Or is it just the same movie with a bigger budget and more explosions?
