22 jump street

The boys have moved across the street from 21 Jump Street in this sequel. Basically same plot, Channing and Hill under achieving cops, are sent to college to find a drug dealer. Mayhem follows as both continue to slapstick their way to glory at their captains( Ice Cube) expense. Some very funny sequences but  a lot of dead space in between. The usual very adult humor. Ice Cube and Hill's sweethearts roommate steal the show. 2 1/2 bananas
