Given the huge popularity and success of the sequel, it wouldn’t be a surprise if Lord and Miller team up once again to give us a ‘Jump Street’ trilogy. In fact, it has even been claimed to be one of the best comedy sequels of all times by some critics. The film also was a massive commercial success, grossing $331 million worldwide. ’22 Jump Street’ released on June, 2014, and got a positive response with a certified fresh rating of 84% on Rotten Tomatoes. Given the immense success of the franchise we wonder if there could be more in store for us. But it’s been around six years since we last saw Schmidt and Jenko. It even improved upon the original with the duo’s brilliant bromantic chemistry, and the film’s sharp parody of itself and the genre. ’22 Jump Street’ had Schmidt and Jenko shift gears from high-school to college as they went on an undercover mission to catch yet another criminal. The film’s success led to a sequel which followed the steps of its predecessor. ’21 Jump Street’ brought to us Schmidt and Jenko everybody’s favourite oddball couple, played hilariously by Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill respectively. The film quickly won itself widespread acclaim from public and critics alike, turning out to be a huge box-office success. ’21 Jump Street’ infused all that 80s nostalgia with pop culture to give us something that was simultaneously sharp and silly. Rare is the film that understands the pleasures of letting an enraged Ice Cube take out his wrath on an all-you-can-eat buffet.Lord and Miller reimagined the ’80s hit show as an R-rated screwball comedy that not only turned out to be an absolute laugh riot, but it also got itself a cult following. If Lord and Miller have been subjected to notes from 'the department', it doesn't show: there's an exuberance and silliness here that doesn't diminish for the whole two hours. It's hard to begrudge it a little slackness here and there, though, given the frenetic blizzard of jokes elsewhere. 22 Jump Street cranks it up to hysterical levels, not least with some wonderful use of split-screen.Īs with the original movie, there are a fair few flabby stretches and some single-joke characters (one baddie complains that crime was better in the '90s at least 54 times). Hot Fuzz got there first, but the homoeroticism here is hotter and fuzzier. The new spin here is that the buddy cops' passion for each other is starting to wane - they want to investigate other people. But the stars remain an inspired, even loveable, double-act: a couple of party-hearty Drebins, or Bill and Ted with handguns. The plot, which revolves around a jockish quarterback played by Wyatt Russell (Kurt's son) and his possibly nefarious bro-gang, is nothing much to speak of. There's little character development: one of our heroes (Tatum) is still a lunk who confuses 'carte blanche' for 'Cate Blanchett', the other (Hill) still a neurotic softie who's equally useless at improvising his way through a drug-cartel meet or a slam-poetry contest. (For the record: we really want to see the cartoon that teams Jenko and Schmidt with an octopus.)

Best of all are the clips that unspool over the end credits, lampooning the current trend for stings by teasing not just the next Jump Street but the next couple of dozen, plus ancillary media. They stick to formula so forcefully, and with such inventive flourishes, that the joke gets funnier and funnier with repetition. But Phil Lord and Chris Miller, the sharp brains behind The Lego Movie, know what they're doing. Playing it safe has scuppered many a sequel in the past. Instead, they're going back to school - specifically, college - in a case that mirrors, beat-for-beat, the original movie. 'This department has invested a lot of money to make sure Jump Street keeps going,' he chides, shooting down Tatum's suggestion that the duo join the (boom) Secret Service. Meanwhile, an early action sequence suggesting that the franchise is about to blast off in a new direction is quickly put paid to by the heroes' pencil-pushing superior (Nick Offerman). The new headquarters of useless policemen Jenko (Channing Tatum) and Schmidt (Jonah Hill) is, as befits a pumped-up, budget-enhanced sequel, far swankier than their original digs, complete with a slick office for Ice Cube's character that resembles an actual ice cube.

In the grand tradition of comedy follow-ups like Gremlins 2: The New Batch and Airplane II: The Sequel ('Ted, I have the strangest feeling we've been through this exact same thing before'), 22 Jump Street has a giddy time going full meta.
