The Inbetweeners Movie (2011)

basics...
The four socially-awkward teens go on a summer lads holiday looking for sun, sex, sea, sex, and sex.

brilliant...
Just as hilariously filthy as the TV series, the Inbetweeners Movie is a riot, full of dirty jokes, inspired dance moves, a great cameo from Anthony Stewart Head, plus a heap of nudity from the lead cast - oh and some full frontal bits from a club dancer. What more could you want from a movie?? The cast of 4 girls that the lads pair up with are also great, not just mere eye candy, they have personalities and are not just female copies of the boys. It's good to see resolution to Simon's crush on Carly, who turns out to be a bit of a bitch, and good to see a happy ending for Will. Jay's propensity for bullshit is punctured when he actually develops a mature relationship, and his journey is perhaps the emotional core of the film, along with the general bond between all 4 guys. This unexpected sweetness carries over from the last episode of the TV series and elevates the knob gags to another level.

briefly...
Filthily hilarious, an excellent swan-song for the easily recognisable friends.
