I absolutely loved 21 Jump Street, I think it is one of the best comedies of recent times but when some reviews that I read said that 22 Jump Street was better than the first film I had my doubts. Sequels are usually weaker and the trailer suggests the story is the same, only spent in a different place and that's exactly what happens. So the only thing I asked for was the same amount of laughs that I had in the first film and that was totally achieved but it has not had the same impact on me and the first remains to be my favorite.

The villain was not as strong as Rob Riggle in the first film and that was my main complaint. Apart from that, has the complete package of great entertainment, full of action and fun.

Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum are great together, just like in the first film. Once again their chemistry are perfect and they provide us great moments of laugh. Definitely a great bromance!

Despite having the exact same premise that the first film had I believe that 22 Jump Street certainly will be one of the best comedies of this year.

Last but not least... Those awesome final credits!!!

**From a review written in 2014:**

I’m sure if I really thought about it, I could easily fault _22 Jump Street_, second in the recent reboot of the 1987 TV series. But I don’t want to think about it, ‘cause I had a good time and that’s how I choose to remember it.

To Hell with what so-called “professional” critics are saying, _22 Jump Street_ is not dumb. It’s actually pretty bloody smart. It’s not particularly deep. Or thought-provoking. Or fresh. Or original. Or mature. Or cultured. Or subtle… But it is smart! And funny. Which for a comedy is more important than anything else.

_22 Jump Street_ is very aware of itself, and that can be a tough line to walk, but I think it just managed to get right, brining in some serious meta-humour rather than coming across as arrogant or lazy.

Just.

I’m not particularly big on comedies, and American comedies are certainly pretty low even on that list. But I have been known to come across the odd pleasant surprise. _21 Jump Street_ was one of them (especially considering I assumed it would be akin to the original series, which was a straight laced procedural crime drama…) and now 22 Jump Street is another I can add to that list.

_75%_
