22 Jump Street

Le deuxième film du marathon cinématographique de Turnov a lui aussi été choisi de façon pertinente. Après le sombre X-men, il fallait détendre l'atmosphère, donc on ne pouvait pas être mieux inspiré que d’opter pour le retour du duo déjanté Tatum-Hill, habilement secondé par Ice Cube et son flow verbal. En gros, on suit le même schéma que dans le numéro un, à part qu’on pousse parfois un peu plus dans les extrêmes ; parfois ça passe, parfois ça casse. Le délire toxico est encore une fois à se tordre de rire et le générique de fin est peut-être le meilleur de ceux que je connaisse. (12/08/2014)

Absolute psycho that often goes way over the top, but I enjoyed it more than part 1. The fact that it’s a sequel is capitalized upon and so everything is bigger, more explosive and the humor even crazier. Miller and Lord thrive on knick-knacks, antiracism and also... on male comradery. Awesome final credits. (12/10/2014)

The first movie was absolutely crazy, so the second one is properly insane. For the first fifteen minutes, I was just staring at the two idiots with my mouth wide open and I wasn’t sure whether I’m supposed to laugh or stare like a stuck pig. It was obvious that it was so overdone on purpose and it all pretended to be awfully stylish, which was also complemented by the dance music itself. The story didn’t surprise me because they didn’t come up with anything new. They just swapped high school for college. But one-liners were plentiful; In fact, there were so many that I think that I must have overlooked a ton of cool and clever references to the 1990s in all that colorful fun. I don’t really like Hill or Tatum, but they were really putting on a show here and so I had good fun, I just had to get used to it. (22/06/2015)

A sequel to a comedy hit that lacks nothing that was typical of its predecessor, but at the same time has almost nothing that is typical of it. The genuinely funny scenes are few and far between, the popular mockery of action clichés is effective, but it's a weak brew compared to the first one, with new villains that are terribly stupid (poor Stormare), and only one of the original characters that retains his standards (the wisecracking Ice Cube). I expected much more from directors with such a record of originality. 60% (11/08/2014)

Awesome. More fun than the first one, I think. Great pacing, amazing modern look, Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill are perfect again, the plot is acceptable and there are and lots of laughs, 22 Jump Street has all that! The lunch with the parents and the end credits are without a doubt some of the best scenes of the year. Together with Suck Me Shakespeer, probably the best comedy of the year. 90%. (27/09/2014)
