Kurt Loder Reviews 22 Jump Street and The Rover

Very
cute. 22 Jump Street isn’t just an improbable
sequel to the smash hit 21 Jump Street of two
years ago – it’s virtually the same damn story. Oh, there are some
piffling changes. This time, instead of being sent back to high
school to bust a student drug ring, undercover cops Schmidt (Jonah
Hill) and Jenko (Channing Tatum) have graduated to busting a
college drug ring. Kurt Loder writes that, nevertheless, the film
is so skillfully wrought, and Hill and Tatum so nuttily attuned,
you have to hope that no one involved will be moved to pursue an
endless series of further installments.
