The Inbetweeners Movie Trailers

High school graduation just wouldn’t be complete without an un-chaperoned, uninhibited and unforgettable final holiday. At least that’s what Will, Jay, Simon and Neil think when they book a two-week stay on an exotic Greek island. As their dreams of sun-drenched days and booze-filled nights are left hopelessly unfulfilled, the lads fight their way into the party scene with hilariously humiliating results.

Reviews
Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
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.
Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
Dave This is a teen comedy film which follows on from the British sitcom The Inbetweeners. The four main characters from the sitcom go on holiday together to Malia, a seaside resort on the Greek island of Crete. This is not as good as the sitcom, but it's better than most teen comedy films. It was followed by a sequel, The Inbetweeners 2.
SnoosReviews It was possibly the most anticipated film of the year, the TV show had ended and it had been announced that the Inbetweeners would be returning, in a feature length film! The 4 lads had finished school and were now free to do what they please with their time, what else is there to do, other than a lads holiday to Malia! It sounds like it has all the promise to be fantastic doesn't it? It really should have been one of the films of the year, it had all the ingredients, but unfortunately it just felt flat. It's hard to write a review on The Inbetweeners Movie without drawing comparisons to the TV show. This is because the TV show was absolutely faultless (well, the majority of it anyway!). I will list the problems I had with the movie:1) It felt too Hollywood. Too many times in the movie where they went too unrealistic, the great thing about The Inbetweeners was that it was so relatable, it was realistic and above all else, it was original. The movie seems to have too many cliché moments and over the top, slapstick humour, which is not what The Inbetweeners is all about. 2) Too much focus on the girls. The 4 lads spent most of the series chasing girls and managing to fail 99% of the time. In the movie they attract girls within the first night! That's not within keeping of the series! The girls like the lads and the lads keep on messing situations up, surely it should have been the other way round and the lads just be the ones harassing the girls? 3) Not as much crude humour, it felt like a watered down version of the TV show. As I said before the humour felt more slapstick, the crude one-liners and offensive jokes felt kept to a minimum which was a real shame. 4) Felt to Clichéd. The falling out between the lads half way through. The fact Carly keeps popping up throughout the film. The alpha Male club rep. It's all been done far too often in Hollywood comedies and to be honest, it's getting a little tiring now.Don't get me wrong, The Inbetweeners Movie is an enjoyable watch, I have seen it several times and it still amuses me. It's just if you make a direct comparison to the TV show (which is near impossible not to) it just doesn't live up to its reputation. The Chemistry is still there between the 4 lads and the loyalty and friendship is still nice to see.7/10
Phil Hubbs So back in 2008 the UK was introduced to yet another foul-mouthed rude and disgusting comedy show...and it was more British brilliance. Easily the most semi offensive, filthy and sexually profanity ridden show to hit our screens since Bottom, and that was tame in comparison. The whole premise is basically centred around childish immature toilet humour, typical boyish low brow school smut that most every British male can relate to because they probably grew up doing and saying the same things.The TV show revolved around four young boys struggling through their school years which included various stereotypical themes which, again, many will relate too. The most common of these was the attempt and failure of many many sexual encounters with girls from their school or where ever, these sexual escapades made up the bulk of the shows plots. Yes it sounds like a wholly clichéd and unoriginal but that doesn't deter us Brits when it comes to embarrassing sexual innuendos and smut.This movie carries on from where the TV show left off after the final third series which we all thought had finished for good. The lads are still mates and they're off on their holidays to sunny Malia, Crete, Greece. That is basically the plot right there, you don't really need to know anything about the TV show or what happened, you can quite easily watch this on its own and get the drift perfectly. There might be the odd moment which you might not get if you haven't watched the TV show but generally you should be fine.If ever there was a bad advert on a mass scale for Brits abroad then this has gotta be high on the list. I'm not referring to all Brits of course but mainly the younger binge drinking generation that we all know and loathe these days. Yep its the stereotypical vision of modern day British youths abroad getting blind drunk, having or hunting for guilt free animalistic sex, drugs, vomit, feces and lots of football shirts. Its exactly what you'd expect as a British viewer which is both hilarious at times and utterly shameful at others, we all know what goes down in these types of places, amazed it wasn't filmed in Magaluf (probably too extreme).Whilst the TV show seems anarchic and unpredictable this film really feels like a let down in my eyes. Gone are the fresh wild obnoxious antics...instead replaced with every known cliché from the book of clichés, besides that we saw all this before with 'Kevin and Perry Go Large'. The one that has been implanted into this story is emotion and some solid character development. The guys do seems to grow as we see them fall out, make up and meet the girls of their dreams...naturally not being the type of girls they expected. Although again its kinda obvious, 'Jay' gets a tubby bird and starts to show signs of maturing, 'Will' get a hot blonde, 'Simon' finally moves on from 'Carly' with a brunette and 'Neil' finds a slightly ditzy girl the same height as himself.Generally I found this movie kinda depressing actually, there is tonnes of negativity with the guys trying to find girls, trying to be popular and trying to fit in. There are of course the highs but I found there to be more lows really, lows and lots of cringeworthy behaviour which somehow didn't seem as funny as the TV show. Most of the laughs tend to be the most obvious and over used clichés such as the shitty hotel, aging desperate women dressed in unflattering attire, too much booze with obligatory vomiting, hot babes, buff jocks and the old gag of the rude doodle burnt into burnt into your back. I guess the old school location of...errr their school works the best, prime example being the fantastic small sequence with Greg Davies as 'Mr Gilbert' the Headmaster giving a rousing speech at the start. Its reasonable fun in places but on the whole it can't live up to the original show despite the usual good performances from the main cast.5.5/10
laserspewpewpew If you want to watch a movie where you won't be challenged too much and just want to have a good laugh at some British humour then The Inbetweeners foray onto the big screen could be right up your street.Fans of the TV series will know what to expect and if you loved the TV show then you will like this. It goes along the same lines and each character is true to there TV self. The acting isn't amazing and there are a few gross out gags but by in large it's quite a fun watch and I found myself laughing at most of it. It won't be the funniest or wittiest comedy you have ever seen but as a piece of entertainment it's worth a watch.
