Inbetweeners 2 Full Film

[Suanne Forte]

Thefilm follows the misadventures of a group of teenage friends on holiday in Malia after the end of their final year at school together, and was intended as an ending to the TV series. It stars Simon Bird, Joe Thomas, James Buckley and Blake Harrison. The Inbetweeners Movie was released on 17 August 2011 in the UK and Ireland by Entertainment Film Distributors, to favourable reviews, although its later release in the United States received mixed reviews from American critics. It was a considerable commercial success, setting the record for the biggest opening weekend for a comedy film in the UK. A sequel, The Inbetweeners 2, was released on 6 August 2014.

Teenage friends Will McKenzie, Simon Cooper, Jay Cartwright, and Neil Sutherland finish their A-levels and prepare to leave Rudge Park Comprehensive. Jay's grandfather dies, leaving him a generous inheritance and Simon's girlfriend, Carli, breaks up with him.

To celebrate graduating and take Simon and Jay's minds off their grief, the boys decide to go on a "lads holiday" together to Malia, Crete. Arriving in Greece, the boys find their accommodation to be a dirty, rundown hotel, and venture out later to experience Malia's nightlife, encountering a man, Richard, who had travelled to Malia alone and who hopes to befriend the boys.

In the town centre, the boys are tricked by a rep into visiting a deserted bar, and they meet a group of four girls who are holidaying: Alison, Lucy, Lisa, and Jane. Will and Alison bond over their similar sense of humour, Simon tells Lucy all about Carli, to Lucy's frustration and Neil and Lisa sit in awkward silence. To Jay's frustration, Jane, the most overweight girl of the group, takes an interest in him.

While their initial meeting and conversations do not go smoothly, and Alison is already in a relationship with a local Greek waiter called Nicos, the girls arrange to meet the boys again at the girls' hotel the following day. To Simon's surprise, he sees Carli across the street, but is introduced to her new love interest, James, a cocky, arrogant club rep. Carli reveals that she is going to an all-day boat party later in the week before she returns to England, and Simon promises to meet her there. To Simon's annoyance, Neil reveals he chose Malia after Carli had mentioned she was going. Will and Simon return to the hotel while Jay and Neil stay out.

The next day, Jay wakes up hungover in a nearby ants nest and Neil had slept with an unattractive older woman. Afterwards, the boys meet the girls at their hotel, but after several mishaps involving Jay and Will, they are kicked out. Jay and Simon get into an argument over Simon's obsession with Carli and they briefly fight each other in the street. Desperate to buy a ticket for the boat party to try to reconcile with Carli, Simon navely "sells" all of his clothes to James without receiving payment. It is revealed Jay had bought four boat party tickets, but had torn up Simon's in anger after the fight. Jay and Neil go to a club where they encounter James and his friends and try to befriend them, but James verbally abuses the pair, causing them to leave. That evening, the four boys meet up and reconcile. The girls appear and Will and Alison, Simon and Lucy, and Jay and Jane all grow closer to each other, while Neil disappears with an older woman, to the frustration of Lisa. The girls suggest that they all go skinny dipping at the local beach. Jay becomes embarrassed when two men laugh at Jane for being overweight, and an upset Jane leaves him. Alison removes Will's glasses as they strip naked. While trying to find them, Will stumbles upon her boyfriend, Nicos, having sex with another woman and Alison leaves, distraught. In the sea, Lucy and Simon prepare to kiss, but Simon sees Carli on the beach and leaves Lucy alone, angering her. With the girls having left, the boys decide to visit various bars and clubs to get drunk.

During the credits, the four boys and the girls spend the rest of their holiday together as couples. When the holiday ends, upon their return to England, the group say goodbye at Gatwick Airport and the girls are introduced to the boys' parents.

A first draft for The Inbetweeners Movie was completed before the third series was even written. The story remained mostly similar besides small changes such as a scene in which Jay hires a motorbike, pretending he knows how to ride it, but failing by crashing into a wall. This scene was removed during the writing process for the third series as the pair needed a humorous way to open the episode and thought the motor bike scene would be better suited to the episode than the movie.

Principal photography took place in the United Kingdom (London, West Sussex), Magaluf, and Malia, Crete.[5] A YouTube video shows the lads walking down the Malia Strip, walking past popular clubs 'Corkers', the strip club 'GoGo Lap Dancing Club' and 'Candy Club'. The Interiors of the empty club where Neil shows off his dance moves were shot in Infernos night club on Clapham High Street, London.[6]

On its first day of release, The Inbetweeners Movie grossed over 2.5 million in 409 cinemas.[7] The film then went on to set a record for the most successful opening weekend ever achieved by a comedy film in the UK, overtaking Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason and The Hangover Part II[8] after earning 13.22 million,[9] compared to second-place Rise of the Planet of the Apes which took 2.4 million.[8] The Inbetweeners Movie was confirmed as having the biggest opening weekend for an independent British film.[8] It retained its number 1 position in the UK film charts for four weeks before being overtaken by Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy on 20 September 2011, by which time The Inbetweeners Movie had grossed 41.8 million overall.[10] The film saw a limited theatrical release in the United States on 7 September 2012, where it grossed $36,000 making its total box office revenue $88,025,781.[citation needed]

On 12 December 2011, The Inbetweeners Movie was released on DVD and Blu-ray Disc in the UK by 4DVD, with the latter version sold as a triple pack containing both formats along with a digital copy of the film. Both versions include a number of special features, such as a making-of documentary, footage from the film's London premiere, various deleted scenes, cast commentaries and a blooper reel.[19]

The Blu-ray release also features an extended cut of the film that restores approximately four minutes of material omitted from the theatrical release, most notably an additional scene in which Will and Simon encounter a drunken Mr Gilbert on a Malia stag weekend.

The film picks up with the suburban foursome right after graduating high school, wherein they decide to take a summer vacation to Crete, ostensibly to get laid. Will (Simon Bird) sees it as an opportunity to rid himself of his pesky virginity before university; Simon (Joe Thomas) uses is as an opportunity to get over Carly, who breaks up with him after graduation (but who would, coincidentally, also wind up in Crete); and Neil (Blake Harrison) and Jay (James Buckley) are interested mostly in drinking themselves silly and talking about all the sex they will never have.

If I had to justify why I liked this film with one sentence, it would be this: At no point does it stray from the formula that made the show so refreshing. The humor is there, as are the scenes of incredible social awkwardness, but this consistency begins with proper characterization. Every fan of the show has a personal favorite, and should be pleased to hear that their move to the big screen has not coerced creators Iain Morris and Damon Beesley into thinking they should customize the characters to suit a wider audience. By the end of The Inbetweeners Movie, each of the four is in an inherently better position in their life than they were two hours ago, but how they all get there remains entrenched in typical The Inbetweeners fashion.

What does this mean exactly? It means that the screenplay puts individual character development on the backburner for most of the film, instead preferring to fill every scene with a truckload of jokes ranging from slapstick, the spoken word and a merciless array of cringe-worthy moments; the kind that have become the niche of the series. In any other genre this could be considered a sour point, but comedies are granted exceptions on the basis that they exist primarily to entertain, not to provide a moral, or indeed, much deep thinking at all. Does each character learn something about their life through their experience in Greece? Sure. Should we expect them to let the rest of their life be guided by these same profound moments of clarity? I doubt it.

A few years ago, a good friend of mine started calling me 'Hollywood' because of my love and knowledge of all things movies, and the name just stuck. Movies are my life. I love them so much that when people ask me why I even bother with law school, I reply with my life motto, and a quote from one of my favourite directors: 'I didn't go to film school. I went to films.' -Quentin Tarantino.

Synopsis: Four 18-year-olds from the south of England go on holiday to Malia in the hope of finding girls, cheap beer and sun. The film picks up where the award-winning E4 comedy-sitcom ended last year.

Next up: Despite persistent rumours of the same talent re-teaming for a fourth TV series or a one-hour special, nothing is in the pipeline, according to the producer and writers. Bird (who recently appeared on TV series Friday Night Dinner) and Thomas are scripting and due to star in Chickens, a WWII-era comedy pilot for Big Talk, which Steve Bendelack is attached to direct. Shooting is set for May.

After protracted negotiations, which saw the unusual outcome of FourDVD retaining UK DVD rights, the film was picked up for UK distribution by Entertainment Film Distributors. IM Global have more recently boarded for international sales.
