WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

After their successful undercover raid in high school, officers Schmidt (Hill) and Jenko (Tatum) are assigned to a local college where they must pose as freshmen to uncover a drug ring. However, when Jenko meets a kindred spirit on the sports team and Schmidt infiltrates the Bohemian art scene, the two officers begin to question their partnership. It soon becomes apparent that in order to get through college (again), they really will have to grow up…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

The first film, itself an adaptation of a much darker TV show, was a surprise comedy hit so 22 Jump Street should follow quite neatly in its predecessor’s footsteps especially with the returning cast and crew.
