According to imdb: "After making their way through high school (twice), big changes are in store for officers Schmidt and Jenko when they go deep undercover at a local college."
Notice that nothing in the above quote is about crime, suspense, action or adventure. That's a clue.
This new 22 Jump Street is a wanna-be buddy film full of scenes of verbal diahorrea. Billed as a comedy, with a movie poster promising guns and coolness, this is an INCREDIBLE waste of time.
The original series was a crime show with young, hip actors, all set in the places the young inhabit. It was written by real crime writers. This is written by people who don't know the genre. Seriously, if you can't write the genre get out of the damn pool and let someone with some insight, skill and talent have the property.
A dead loss. Stick to the reruns.
