It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Saw this one at my local cinema this evening, not expecting a great deal from one of the head honcho's behind the flawless Inbetweeners & arguably the weakest of the 4 main cast. But I gave it a go regardless and my fears were realised almost immediately. I knew I was going to hate this movie from the get go, with the opening 60 seconds ripping off THAT scene where Will McKenzie finally gets to bed Charlotte. Terrible start, seen it all before, it was only funny the first time. From here on Its forced gag after forced gag, leaving excruciatingly awkward moments after the jokes fall flat, knowing full well those churning out the lines are regretting putting pen to paper on a contract. The acting for the first half of the movie from the relative unknowns is at best, abysmal. Poor Joe Thomas churning out a performance which is EXACTLY that of 'Simon', it's hard to see how he will ever do anything else. Seemingly destined to be typecast forever, never shaking the Inbetweener tag.Anyway I'd had enough after he crawled through the crowd & got pissed on. I walked out after barely 40mins. The first time I have ever done this in my life. A painfully unfunny movie, from what looks like a script that was dragged from the bin under the title Inbetweeners 3. Can't wait to read others reviews after the coming weeks, if this film doesn't bomb & sit in the £5 and under bin at your local Tesco's by Christmas I'll be shocked. Avoid this disaster, save your cash.

Seems like a film that should have come out in 2008, it just seemed out of touch. Played Mr Brightside at least 3 times. There were definitely some funny moments but just the same joke formats as the inbetweeners, nothing new. Noticed a joke pinched from Peep Show (no thanks, I'm full). Overall I had a fun time going to see this movie but I will never watch it again.

Might find yourself cringing at times but even when cringeworthy it's still hilarious a bit crude at times with awkward sex scenes so maybe don't watch with your parents

The Festival - starring Joe Thomas (who plays Simon in the Inbetweeners) and directed by Iain Morris (who wrote the Inbetweeners). It's a British comedy about a guy (Nick) who goes to a festival after his girlfriend dumps him. It's similar to the inbetweeners so obviously it's full of bad language, party people, sex scenes and nudity. I made the mistake of bringing me mum lol awkward. But if you like the Inbetweeners you'll like this for sure.Lots of laughs and 2 or 3 big laugh out loud moments. British comedies are generally funnier than American - makes me wonder why Hollywood don't invest more in them.
