SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Ersbel Oraph Boring. Dull. Unpleasant attempts at jokes.Sure. It has sex. It would have been revolutionary back, say in the 1970s. After Windows 95, sex is quite accessible. And the scenes are prude, just enough to give the producers bragging rights.And the fun density is close to zero. Some witty remarks and that is about it. But there is enough space to wonder why I am watching this kindergarten crap? I mean: the frustrated virgin boy says something about a glory hole to the not virgin ignorant peasant girl. And ha-ha, she is going to google it with her comfortably close smart phone and, ha-ha she is awkward. A joke bringing the grandchildren (who know) together with the grandparents (who can google).This is not a comedy. This is something that got classified as comedy for the lack of a better choice.Contact me with Questions, Comments or Suggestions ryitfork @ bitmail.ch

mburrows-16-939312 Slight spoilers in this review**** I really enjoyed this show. It popped up in "recently added" on my Netflix account - and of course I checked for reviews here before I watched it. It faired well so I gave it a go. I am so glad I did. There is something about original English programming that is lacking from shows made in the USA (I am from Australia)- more of a raw authenticity even though some of the happenings are simply ridiculous - if that makes sense? At times it does try a little too hard but so do a lot of shows. My fave character is JP - he is hilarious and even though he is super douchey; he is lovable. I did find myself hating Josie throughout the whole show. She was really insufferable, selfish and rude. That being said - I have finished the 3 seasons available on Netflix and it has left me wondering what the gang is all up to now! Word of warning - it is what some people might describe as vulgar, I personally love vulgarity so made me like it even more! However - if you are easily offended ... do not watch it. Cheers

Mike-DD Maybe it's because I cannot watch this at home (the local broadcasters won't even think about bringing this in as it is in blatant violation of broadcast rules here), but I enjoy this show immensely. University life in the UK is definitely different from what I experienced in Singapore and Australia.I suppose the show isn't supposed to be a general view of undergraduate life in the UK, but this particular group of undergraduates are interesting enough to watch over 3 seasons now.Kingsley and JP are the 2 protagonists of the series. The latter has a seemingly lasseiz-faire attitude to life yet displays an endearing vulnerability at times. Kingsley initially appears to be a homeboy stepping out into the world for the first time, but in time becomes a man of his own.The other characters support the series well enough. There is the studious know-it-all who tries not to look down on everyone (Oregon), the insecure one who occasionally manages to break through the stereotype (Howard), the hippie-wannabe (Vod) and the girlfriend (sorry, that's the way I keep seeing her - Josie).I enjoy following the characters around their simple-on-the-outside-but- complex-on-the-inside lives, the interactions between the housemates, the witty banter, the music and the score. Even the rough language is enjoyable most of the time.Most of the stories are interesting enough, although, as can be expected from any recurring series, there are some dud episodes. But all in all, it still entertains, though I do sometimes wonder if British undergraduates really do behave in this way.

mlleangelique A tediously patronising and utterly charmless portrayal of studenthood, Fresh Meat views like the imagination of someone who hasn't been near a university in a zillion years, and whose ideas about students are formed entirely from ridiculous news reports of depoliticised yet scary&violent student demonstrators, and something wot they read in a magazine once. Characters are about as sympathetic and believable as Jar Jar Binks.As the better moments of Peep Show indicate, Bain and Armstrong are capable of more than this. Having said that - think of all the characters the pair have ever written who aren't white, male, middle aged and middle class. Any stand out as particularly well-developed and thought-through? Maybe it shouldn't exactly be a surprise that their portrayal of a somewhat diverse group of twentyish year olds seems concocted from profoundly lazy stereotypes.
