Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

nboysis Honestly? Anyone who gave this movie a decent review - what's going through your head? I've watched a lot of "coming of age" movies, most of which have been fairly raunchy or outlandish. Never have I watched a movie as disappointing as this one though. It was disgusting - and I assure you, I can handle quite a bit of raunchiness. I mean, I grew up on Newgrounds and all those other bullshit sites that exposed me to that an early age. This was just over the top though. The only charming aspect of it was the main character and his love interest. His narrative paired with his script was actually what pushed me to give this movie a 2 as opposed to a flat out 1. The other characters had me on the brink of pulling my hair out, and I did everything within my power to not turn the program off halfway through. I actually feel dumber after having watched that. I called my grandma to tell her I love her. I enrolled in an MBA program. I've since turned my life around 180 and promised to be a better man. All because of this absolute trash movie; I've reevaluated my life entirely.

tomgillespie2002 Based on the immensely successful TV series that ran between 2008 and 2010 on E4, The Inbetweeners naturally made the leap to the big screen much to the appreciation of its fans, who obviously felt that 3 seasons was not nearly enough time to spend with it's four hopeless would-be lothario's. As with most TV-to-movie transitions, the added budget requires moving the setting to something bigger and more exotic, which means its a lad's holiday to Malia for Will (Simon Bird), Jay (James Buckley), Neil (Blake Harrison) and Simon (Joe Thomas), where they hope to find sun, sea and sex. "It'll be like shooting clunge in a barrel," as the ever-sensitive Jay delicately puts it.After Will's father marries a much younger women, Jay inherits money from his grandfather's death, and Simon is dumped by his girlfriend Carli (Emily Head), Neil books the group a much-needed fortnight away in Crete. Only their accommodation is a run-down squalor with a dead dog in the water well, and the area seems to be populated by a lonesome weirdo, an angry hotel owner and lots of ants. Their first venture into the clubs leads them to a deserted bar where they meet four girls who are staying nearby. Will insults but manages to hit it off with the gorgeous Alison (Laura Haddock); Simon can't stop talking about his ex to Lucy (Tamla Kari); Neil is too interested in the older lady on the dancefloor to talk to Lisa (Jessica Knappett); which leaves Jay "stuck with the fat one" Jane (Lydia Rose Bewley).I boycotted the show for years due to it's popularity, as I find that it never spells good news if everyone is discussing how funny a show is (see Gavin & Stacy for proof). Yet when I did catch it on late-night TV, it transported me back to my school days. The dialogue is consistently crude and ridiculously offensive, but tragically realistic. The boys' repulsiveness was offset by their naivety and innocence, especially when spoken by Jay, a compulsive liar with a mentally abusive father. The show was less appealing in its relentless cruelty; set-pieces involving s******g your pants during an exam or walking down a cat- walk with one testicle unknowingly hanging out tended to induce cringing rather than laughs.Operating on a larger scale means that these set-pieces are more dominant, making the film more akin to American teen sex comedies such as Porky's (1982) or American Pie (1999) than the more observational TV show that brought us "bus w*****s!", "ah, car fwend," and punching a fish to death. So rather than decent jokes and immature word-play, we get Jay masturbating with chicken-fillets and a gas mask and Neil's fingers working their way into an old slapper's knickers in the middle of a club. Still, while it makes little attempt to work outside the familiar tropes of the genre, it's funnier than most small-to-big screen transitions seen with British shows throughout the decades, with Bird and Buckley especially putting in decent performances.

sim0n I enjoyed a few of the episodes from the series, but this film was horrendously bad. The best bit was the opening few minutes with Greg Davies, but then he wasn't in it again until the closing credits. I think I laughed twice. Oh, IMDb won't let me post this unless there are 10 lines of text "Your review does not contain enough lines - the minimum length for reviews is 10 lines of text" - that's funnier that the film! Your review does not contain enough lines - the minimum length for reviews is 10 lines of text... Your review does not contain enough lines - the minimum length for reviews is 10 lines of text... There.

Jackson Booth-Millard The Inbetweeners on television is a fantastically funny show, so a movie to accompany the series and give the characters a broader adventure to go on was almost inevitable, and it went on to become the most profitable comedy of the year. Basically the four misfit friends, nerd- like Will McKenzie (Simon Bird, also narrating), foul-mouthed Jay Cartwright (James Buckley), slow-witted Neil Sutherland (Blake Harrison) and insecure Simon Cooper (Joe Thomas), along with all the others students at Rudge Park Comprehensive school have passed their A levels. Following depressing events, Jay's granddad dies, Simon is dumped by his girlfriend Carli D'Amato (Emily Head) and Will's Dad (Anthony Head) has married his young mistress, the boys decide to get away from it all, and to do this the boys book a holiday to Malia, Crete. When they arrive the accommodation is awful, and their first night is terrible as they spend it in an empty bar, but they do meet four attractive girls, Jane (Lydia Rose Bewley), Alison (Laura Haddock), Lucy (Tamla Kari) and Lisa (Jessica Knappett). As the holiday goes on the boys all get on with some of their own things rather than hang out with each other, and only occasionally hang out with the girls, Will picks on Alison having a cliché Greek boyfriend, Simon bores Lucy to death constantly talking about Carli who is also on holiday in Malia, Neil getting with much older women has hardly any talks with Lisa, and obnoxious Jay is disappointed to be hanging around with slightly chubby Jane. There comes a point when the boys do have some time together and a big argument ensues between Simon and Jay, who have been friends since primary school, and they break apart for a while, and it seems Will and Neil are going separate places as well. Eventually though they all meet again in the empty bar and make it up to each other, and they know that if they really care for the girls they have met the only place to go is the boat party they have been told about for a while. Alison with Will found her Greek boyfriend Nicos (David Avery) having sex with another girl, so she seeks Will out to ask him if they can be boyfriend-girlfriend to which he agrees and he loses his virginity. Neil has been ignoring Lisa and only having small conversations, but also she has been avoiding the talk of sex assuming he has a girlfriend back home, but he finally admits that they split some time ago and they do get intimate. Jane knows that for some time Jay has been concerned hanging around a larger girl and is afraid to be seen kissing or getting to close, she stands up for herself when required but is not happy with him, but he realises he does have real feelings for her and is not bothered what people think. Simon gets the opportunity to go on the boat for the party and is initially keen to get back together with Carli, but talking to her he realises he no longer has any real feelings for her and has become much closer to Lucy, the other guys knew this as well, so he swims back to be with her, and despite nearly drowning he is rescued and taken ashore where they do kiss. Also starring Greg Davies as Mr. Gilbert, Belinda Stewart-Wilson as Polly MacKenzie, Theo James as James and Alex Macqueen as Kevin Sutherland. The four lead stars all make their characters the most fun and individually are all the most lovable, whether it be during the situations they get themselves in or with each other bickering and poking fun. I admit that the film was maybe not as over the top some of the time as the near cult television show, but being full of foul mouthed language, dirty jokes, some gross stuff and a feel like Kevin & Perry Go Large it is a good fun comedy film. Good!
