22 Jump Street (2014)
Fans of 21 Jump Street will not be disappointed at all in 22 Jump Street, which is really rare for a sequel. It’s every bit as funny as the original, and everyone still seems like they’re having a blast while making it. Even though it’s a light comedy, it still manages to draw you in and surprise you. I won’t go so far as claim there are dramatic moments, but it is realistic and sweet even though it’s silly.
As the end of the first movie promised, undercover agents Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill go to college for their next assignment. Sent to find the dealer of a new on-campus intense drug “WhyPhy,” they soon split off in different directions. Tatum joins a fraternity and the football team, and Hill falls for a beautiful art major (Amber Stevens West) he meets at a poetry slam. Taking different paths takes a toll on their friendship, and the bickering “couple” makes us laugh during every minute. As we follow both hapless agents searching without any leads, their boss Ice Cube gets just as hilariously frustrated as he did in the first movie.
Keep your eyes open for Peter Stormare, Nick Offerman, Queen Latifah, and repeat performances from Rob Riggle and Dave Franco. The very modern humor might not please your parents who watched the original television series, but the younger crowd will laugh themselves silly.
DLM Warning: If you suffer from vertigo or dizzy spells, like my mom does, this movie might not be your friend. In the very beginning, Jonah Hill watches an online lecture and the camera spins in a circle, and that will make you sick. In other words, “Don’t Look, Mom!”
