The Inbetweeners Movie [DVD] 3 disc special edition

I have always loved The Inbetweeners. I watch all of the series frequently and find them all hilarious. I then grabbed the chance to see this big-screen spin-off in 2011, when it was released in cinemas.In the past, I have found big-screen spin-offs of TV sitcoms a bit "hit and miss" in terms of their overall quality. After watching this, I changed my mind. I thought that the film was hilarious, with almost constant gags and jokes throughout the entire film. Most of the film is very crude and with a lot of "toilet humour" in the script, but fans of the series will already be aware of this. In fact, it's one of the main reasons why we love it so much! I then bought the film on DVD, so that I could watch it and enjoy it all over again. Believe me, if you love the series then you will certainly love this too, because it's more of the same.There is a smattering of familiar characters from the series, along with some new faces. Mr Gilbert, the sixth form head teacher pops up at the start in a cameo role, but he was as amusing as ever. I thought it was a pity that the scriptwriters couldn't find more for him to do in the film, but then I guess you can't always have what you want. I still found the film hilarious, though. Any fans of The Inbetweeners will love this, as I already said. It's also much better than the woeful sequel that followed. I give it four stars, because it's essential viewing for modern comedy fans. Just don't bother with the sequel, because it's crap, trust me.

I love the inbetweeners.Of course I do.It's effing brilliant, isn't it?!I was so excited for this movie and sat in anticipation as it came on in the cinema.I guess I expected something similar to Kevin and Perry Go Large, but more modern.I think the film is watchable by people who've never seen the show, and the characters have their own introductions.Is it as good as the show?No, it's not. But it's up there.The back-and-forth humour could have felt stale after an hour and a half, but the directors knew what they were doing and therefore this didn't happen.So, it's a lads' holiday set in Malia (though, filmed somewhere else and made to look like Malia).They all want to get laid.Simon is still trying to get over Carlie.Neil has an amazing line in this film...Simon says (no, we're not playing a game here) "You should bring your ball to the beach Neil"Neil: "Can I will?" (So funny)Will: "Yes Neil... Yes you can"Will is chasing a girl clearly out of his league. I love Will the most. Witty, nerdy and extremely lovable.Jay is most keen to 'get it onnnnn' with the ladies, and acts like a bit of a douche in the film... a lovable douche.(Yes, I love all these guys).The film includes sex, LOTS OF HUMOUR, fall-outs, stupid bits, AMAZING DANCE MOVES and much more.If you haven't seen this yet, BUY IT.Or else.... I WILL KEEP PRESSING CAPS LOCK AND USING EXPLANATION MARKS!!!!!!!!!!!Great film, and good to watch with friends/family.5 *s

I can imagine there are those who have not heard of The Inbetweeners, after all, it has been well hidden away on E4 for its three-series run. However, I can't imagine there are that many people who have seen the show and not enjoyed the film. If you've watched the series, you'll love the film. If you haven't seen a TV episode then I advice you to borrow a DVD from a friend (ask around - someone will have one) and check it out first.And, even if you haven't seen the TV series, this is pretty good fun. I guess its target audience is mainly young men who have lived through those precarious teenage years of uncertainty, drinking and (attempted) womanising. Women seem to enjoy it too - mainly because the four male stars continue to make a fool of themselves. In fact, I don't know any person under 35 who doesn't like it. The only people I've met who don't `get it' are my mum and a friend's mum. There's a reason it's one of the highest-grossing British comedies of all time and that's because it's pretty damn funny!Basically, it's about four lads who leave school and go on a drunken holiday to the a Greek island (I forget which one). There, they get into all manner of embarrassing scrapes. As it says on the sleeve - think American Pie meets Peep Show. There are plenty of cringe-worthingly bad moments for the stars and expect a fair amount of bad language, nudity and plenty of laughs. Basically, it's like everything that a Richard Curtis movie isn't!I found it like what a `Carry On...' film might be like if it was written today and the humour carries over from the TV series well - you'll laugh out loud more often than not. It does slow a bit towards the end, but it's definitely more hit than miss.Also, it teaches a guy not to put too much gel in his hair and don't pass out face down on an ants' nest.

The first time I saw the film was in the cinema and I was rather disappointed and didn't feel it was worth paying for. I purchased the DVD thinking I would give it another shot a year and a half on and I'm glad I did. The film is a much more entertaining watch at home in your room rather than the cinema and it seemed so much more like the series at home.Was it cinema material? Perhaps.Better on DVD? yes.Without giving much away it follows the boys as they go to Malia, Greece on their first boys holiday. They soon find out that Neil booked the place knowing that Carlie would be there deeming that if it is cool enough for her to go there then they should too, this is following her and Simon's break up. They head off in high spirits and as expected things aren't quite the way they planned and soon turn rotten (there's a little Benidorm in there too). They meet some girls, things go from bad to worse and in the end everything is patched over and they return home ready to start their new lives.It was a nice end to an amazing series and worth a watch.
