The Inbetweeners 2 (2014)


Movie adaptations of TV shows are pretty hit and miss, when the first 'Inbetweeners' movie hit the big screen it was a hit, a huge hit not even the producers could predict raking in a staggering $80M+, but was it any good? Well yes, enjoyable, but I never felt it hit the highs (or lows) that the series so frequently reached, but it must be said, seeing the guys again was something I was looking forward too.

This time the guys are in the land of Oz, Jay apparently is living the life over there (girls, girls, and more girls) and invites the rest of the gang over, not thinking they would actually take up the offer, as he actually works as a toilet attendant in a night club. What follows is fairly predictable, fish out of water, knob and poo gags, they fall out, they make up, again very enjoyable and funny, but I still feel it misses a certain something.

'Loveable' characters, crewd, lude and filthy, "Inbetweeners 2" is a fun movie, but still not one I would class as a classic that some would have you believe, and certainly not the comedy of the year (sticks of Lego please!)
