22 Jump Street brings another installment of laughs in the sequel to 2012's 21 Jump Street. The action comedy film, based on the 1980s television series, was written by Michael Bacall, Oren Uziel and Rodney Rothman, and directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller. 22 Jump Street opened in theaters on June 13, 2014. There are many great 22 Jump Street quotes.
In 22 Jump Street, former partners Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and Jenko (Channing Tatum) reunite to work again. On orders from Deputy Chief Hardy (Nick Offerman) and Capt. Dickson (Ice Cube), the pair go undercover once again, this time as college students. They enroll in classes, move into the dorms and start to fit in like a normal college co-ed all while trying to find out who is behind a new drug.
But as Jenko joins the football team and Schmidt begins to fit into the art major scene, they find themselves growing apart. This puts them at a crossroads. Can they finish this investigation and snuff out the drug dealers on campus without harming their friendship and partnership? 22 Jump Street will test just that.
22 Jump Street blazes into theaters which are already packed with other great movies such as The Fault in Our Stars, Edge of Tomorrow, A Million Ways to Die in the West, Maleficent, Night Moves, Filth, Blended, X-Men: Days of Future Past, The Immigrant, and The Amazing Spider-Man 2.
