<\/a><\/p>\n 21 Jump street<\/em> was a surprise box office hit back in 2012, a likeable comedy that made over $200 million, so it was inevitable that all involved would sign up for a sequel. Thankfully, 22 Jump Street<\/em> manages to outdo its predecessor in almost every way and is one of the best comedies of the year because of it.<\/p>\n Picking up the pieces after their drugs bust, undercover officers\u00a0Schmidt (Hill) and Jenko (Tatum) graduate from high school narcotics to infiltrating fraternities on a college level. With a new drug craze sweeping a local campus, it\u2019s up to our agents to once again locate the suppliers and pinpoint a dealer, with college offering much more in the way of distractions than high school did.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n The secret to the success of both of these movies is the bromance between stars Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum. With an onscreen chemistry that Riggs and Murtagh would have been proud of, the pair riff off of each other perfectly. Thanks in part to some clever writing, and also their respective charisma, Tatum and Hill garner some sizable laughs poking fun at Hollywood’s obsession with remakes and reboots, while simultaneously breathing fresh life into the genre. They launch themselves into the roles with unremitting glee and 22 Jump Street<\/em> soars because of their commitment to making fun of themselves.<\/p>\n
