22 Jump Street
22 Jump Street is a 2014 American comedy film on Blu-ray and Ultraviolet, directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, produced by and starring Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum.
Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum reprise their roles as an unlikely pairing of undercover cops in this action comedy sequel based on the 1980s TV series. Following their success infiltrating a local high school, fresh-faced police officers Morton Schmidt (Hill) and Greg Jenko (Tatum) are despatched to college to try and crack a crime ring. However, the different lifestyles available in college threaten to reawaken old divisions, as Schmidt is drawn into a liberal artistic circle and Jenko finds a home in the testosterone-fuelled domain of the football team. Will the pair be able to put aside their differences and remain focussed on their objective amidst the many opportunities and excesses offered by college life?
Critic Reviews:
- " It's safe to say that it has been quite awhile since a film this messy has also been such an absolute blast. " – Richard Propes
- " If there's a funnier comedy sequel than 22 Jump Street, it probably didn't suggest the studio should market an at-home children's shooting game with phalluses as the targets. So, 22 Jump Street wins. " – Ryan Syrek
- " You can almost hear Lord and Miller giggling to the audience “can you believe they're actually paying us to do this?” We can. And it's absolutely worth it. This is one refreshingly smart comedy. " – Matthew Lucas
