Actually in Germany they still used the title they gave the first Inbetweeners movie, which was Sex on the beach. Now they added "Down under" which stands clearly for Australia ... well and probably something else, but I don't have to point that joke out for you I reckon. Apart from weird German titles, this has a few things that work better than in the first movie, but the first had a different kind of charm.
Well at least for someone like me, who hadn't seen the TV show (and still hasn't). The four boys are at it again, though one of them seems to have hit the mother-load over in Australia. Which is the starting point of the new adventure and the reason they all find themselves in Australia. Predictable? Yes. Still funny? Also yes

As a inbetweeners fan of the series and first movie I was looking forward to this movie and cant say I was diappointed but then on the other hand I cant say it was anything else than OK.
There were enough gags in their as you'd expect and one or two are worth the money on their own but the script seems very contrived to fit in certain characters or in creating a reason for the movie in the first place.
The real thing that let this down was after 90 minutes of chasing trying to achieve their goal the whole movie is wrapped up in 2 mins and then it finishes apart from some Hangover-style end credit scenes.
This movie did all the classic inbetweeners things to the extreme , I'm not sure what they could do if they ever made a 3rd movie
All in all an OK movie but I wont be too sad it thats the last we see of them.
I'd be happier watching repeats of the TV series.

For me, the first film wasn't at the standard of the TV series, but I was accepting of that because films rarely are as good as the series. I was disappointed that they then decided to milk it one last time with a second film, which bares no real relevance and adds no real closure to the previous title.
It isn't as if the first film ended on a cliff-hanger, it's not as if they had to close anything off. For me, this was a film made for the money they knew they could make. Okay it's funny, but it's very average and easy humour.
The Inbetweeners should have remained as just the 3 series, but I understood why they'd want a grand slam finish with a movie, but the second was unnecessary. I'd watch it again, but it's not something I'd jump at watching. More of pass time than a hobby.

The typical good-natured yet vulgar humour the four lads have offered for years has returned in this hilarious sequel to the beloved predecessor and television series. Whilst definitely more gross than the first film, this enjoyable instalment in the comedy series has a more cinematic feel set against the stunning Australian outback. A film that overcomes the flaws that were present in the first film. Whilst the majority of the laughs generated from the film were conceived from shocks and puerile humour, the general light-hearted look into the lives of the four esteemed teenagers leaves us contented with their satisfying conclusion.
The Inbetweeners was a great TV series, it was followed by a movie spin-off that was pretty good considering how those types of things usually are and now we have a sequel. Both films do that thing that virtually all film versions of TV series do and that is take their sitcom characters and make them go on a holiday abroad. It sort of worked quite well in the first movie when they go to Spain because it seemed like exactly the kind of thing that the characters would have done and while that movie did have some of the contrivances you get with spin-off movies, it was on the whole very amusing. This sequel also goes abroad, this time to Australia. You can imagine whoever pitched this idea thought it would be the logical next destination because it's even further afield than the last one. What's next? Perhaps 'The Inbetweeners 3: In Space'.
The plot-line is certainly quite awkward in getting the boys to Oz and it remains quite a weak story-line in general throughout. The boys are all basically exactly the same, with the same traits and situations, just now in Australia. We have some other characters too, in the form of pretentious spiritual travellers but not much beyond that. It's a weaker film than the last one and you do feel that maybe this is the end of the line for these characters. But the four leads are still likable and well played. Simon Bird as Will is probably the one with the best story arc here and he consequently is the funniest character. It's certainly funny in places and definitely one for fans of the series to at least see but it's not up to the standard of before really.

A squeal that didn't suck and actually was better than the first movie.
The story to The Inbetweeners: Movie 2 is basically about Neil, Simon, and Will join Jay on his gap year in Australia.
If your not a fan of these sex jokes and these dick jokes or your not a fan of the series, then this is not the movie for you, but if you are then this movie will make you laugh and smile.
This movie is more funny and even more gross then the first movie and the TV show. The characters have all there moments to shine in this film and the Jokes were so funny that everybody in the cinema laughed there ass off.
P.S "See you later benders".

I have always been an avid watcher of The Inbetweeners TV program and have enjoyed it. The first Inbetweeners movie was fairly funny on a first viewing but didn't trump the quotable down to earth TV show.
The Inbetweeners 2 from the Teaser and the Trailers looked like a predictable sequel that used the same jokes and quotes. I thought the same old jokes would be repeated since the teaser had a very unfunny twist on the famous "BUS ******" line. This set me up for the usual sequel experience (Worse).
I was incredibly surprised by how much I enjoyed the film. There were several scenes where I was crying with laughter! Its cringe toilet humor had worked and I was in tears at several moments.
The whole film was embarrassing to watch just like the original Inbetweeners. That was always what made the shows so good. I was uncontrollably laughing and looking away because it was too much!
There were some unfunny moments where the jokes failed after a minute of building them up. I found that this was more common at the start and the bad jokes at the start made the hilarious jokes stand out even more.
There where some graphic parts in the film. All were dirty rather than violent and anyone who is made sick by the sight of very very dirty slapstick toilet jokes won't enjoy some of the funniest parts of the film which could ruin the experience...
Overall I would have to say one of the best comedies and the BEST sequel I have ever seen. It wasn't just me and my 17 year old friends. The whole cinema was cracking up! If you enjoyed the first Inbetweeners movie you will enjoy this, since in my opinion it trumps it in almost every way.

Simon (Joe Thomas) Neil (Blake Harrison) and Narrator Will (Simon Bird) head down under to visit Jay (James Buckley) in Australia, where he's Sydney's premier DJ and on top of having a threesome with the Minogue sisters, he has models throwing themselves at him every day in his new mansion.
Once the gang are reunited, they set out to explore the country, falling in with a group of pretentious travellers, who pretentious Will is desperate to bond with, because A, he is embarrassed by his friends, and B, he fancies his chances with a girl in the group.
It is a good move, that all the lads are not trying to pull girls this time around... As the joke of them trying and failing to have sex wore thin by the time the movie came around. This time it's only Will chasing a girl, and failing to have sex. Simon on the other hand is doing his best to get away from Lucy (the girl from the first movie, who has had a complete personality transplant since we last seen her) back in London.
Whilst it's better than the first, (let's be honest it could hardly have been worse) it's still not a patch on the TV show. Some situations are hilarious, but some (ie Wills song being the best example of this) the joke wears thin very quick, and it is just long and painful till it reaches it's conclusion.
The lads all know their characters so well they can play them in their sleep, just as well there is no character development. Will just replaces Simons character From the first movie, but he is a pretentious puppy dog following the girl instead of a naive one, and they all gave the level of performance you would expect -Harrison is the standout performer- from people who have played characters for this long.
Crude, mindless, foul mouthed and happy go lucky, the movie breezes along grabbing every easy laugh it can.

I wouldn't usually review a movie... but this film was so good i felt it needed one! From the beginning to the end it was fantastic! Couldn't keep my eyes off the screen! Had me laughing throughout. Will certainly be seeing this again!
The screen was packed and this was at a late showing put on as extra due to the demand! The characters were brilliant as before however Neil was particularly funny!
A must see!
Best Scene The water park scene has me crying me laughter! wished it lasted longer!

As a massive fan I went to see this the first day, but tried not to have expectations which were too high. I have to say I was a little bit disappointed. I laughed out loud about three times and the other seems were mildly amusing.
Scenes were too fast paced at times but then other times they seemed to drag. The story line just wasn't there for me. It could have been so much better. It was all a bit samey, I know these characters are ones we know and love, but seriously, the plot had pretty much even done before.
Will chasing a blonde who is using him and ditching his mates. Jay crying about a girl that dumps him. Simon between a rock and a hard place with a girl. Neil, well just been Neil but more stupid then ever. Its all been done in the series and the first film and just regurgitated.
The plot was weak on which most of the jokes were based. Lots about the travellers they meet and how they are 'British gappies' who think they are renowned travellers. Just wasn't that funny, or obviously funny. And the ending was far too rushed and abrupt.
What annoyed me most is the fact that these characters have not grown at all. They are still exactly the same as they were at the beginning of the series. Yes we love these characters, don't change their personalities, but let them evolve a little bit. They are exact the same only even more annoying and exaggerated. Eg. Jay so obsessed with gash that it's not funny anymore.
Will has no friends at uni - that just wouldn't happen. What was funny about the show was its realism and realistic scenes.
That been said it is well worth a watch if you are a fan. Just don't get too excited!

The Inbetweeners 2 - the sequel to the original amazing film. What a disappointment.
Distinctly average film with some laugh out loud moments, but mostly cringe and not funny jokes. The ending was very sudden and not well thought out. It smells of an attempt to cash in but the material is not fresh/original and doesn't really work compared to the original. The original was witty, clever and had lots of great awkward moments that you could empathise with however the sequel seems to just try and recreate that rather than try and be original in its own right, and as such just leaves a bit of a sour taste in the mouth.

Wow, was this a huge step down from the first film, which was already a step down from the great television series. It seems like the actors are all trying their best, but when the material is just so painfully unfunny and sort of embarrassing at times, there's so much one can do. It's not all bad though, there's some few delightful, funny, or entertaining scenes. But yeah, this is a huge disappointment. I just don't even know what to say, this is just stupid humor we've come to expect from bad writing, not the kind the show mostly had. At worse, this is grating. At its best, it's mildly amusing, just mildly. Yeah, I just can't recommend this at all.

The Inbetweeners 2 is the final outing for the beloved characters whose journey first started out on sitcom level on Channel 4. This time round finds the gang in Australia, with the usual awkward situations. The leads all know there characters inside out by this point and all put in strong performances. There are some highlight scenes including Splash planet and the camp fire moments all providing laugh out loud situations. However this feels like a cash in sequel. The first film i felt tied everything up nicely, however a lot of this good work is undone. For example Simon's girlfriend having a complete personality change is jarring, as is the headmasters relationship with Will's mum. Also nothing is fresh here, these are seen it all before moments and jokes and the film does end rather abruptly like they either ran out of money or script. Ultimately though i still have a fun time with Inbetweeners 2 even though in my opinion it is clearly the worst outing for the gang. I hope this is the last adventure for them as it is still passable without ruining the legacy.

This movie has it's funny moments but not as good as the first one. Good movie through. The one liners are funny and Will & Neil are my favourite characters. Neil's facial expressions are funny and it's that blank look he gives so funny and when Will tries to act cool and it doesn't work lol I think the series is funnier and I prefer the series.

This film resulted in a manifestation of what I like to call 'a lot of laughing', hence achieved it's raison d'être. Don't eat while watching, you may choke. It has not tried to change the winning formula form the series or the first film yet in my opinion was as enjoyable as any episode if not more so. I hope that long may it continue and look forward to 'Coach Trip: Scotland' or 'Ocean Cruise' when the lads reach their octogenarian era. Having lately seen Neighbors (yes spelt incorrectly), 22 Jump Street and numerous other American comedies I can safely say this has trounced them all without trying too hard. If you haven't already you can stop reading now as these lines are for the requisite 10 line review for IMDb, just buy, rent or go to the cinema and see this film and enjoy.
I am in the unusual position of having never actually watched the series, but I did see the previous movie. And from my perspective, these are four of the biggest idiots to ever come from our shores. Neil is Too Dumb To Live, Jay is a sex obsessed loser, Simon is a walking doormat and Will might be smart academically, but in social situations is a total liability.
In Ibiza, they made complete fools of themselves, before everything came together for the ubiquitous Happy Ending. Here, Down Under, amongst all the usual Aussie stereotypes, things go even worse. And they don't really improve. Ever. As for the final scenes, well let me just say that the combined effect of the abruptness and the pessimism of them made me somewhat annoyed that this, according to the creators, is the last we'll see of these lovable misfits. Way to close the cycle, guys.
The Inbetweeners is primarily a comedy of embarrassment... and boy, do we have some doozies here. As a demonstration of the movie's ambition to ramp up every awkward moment into a full blown trauma causing humiliation, the bit at the water park would be a good place to start. To begin with: Neil s**ts himself at the top of the slide. This would perhaps be enough for most films, but in TI2 they don't understand the meaning of the word 'excess'. Not only does a piece of the offending fecal matter find it's way down the flume, it also end's up in poor old Will's face at the bottom... who then proceeds to spray sick EVERYWHERE like a sprinkler, forcing an evacuation of the pool. AND in front The Girl Of His Dreams.
We laugh, but we feel guilty for laughing. We LIKE these lads and want them to succeed... even as they fail miserably at every endeavour... and bring a lot of their problems on themselves. They never get a break... which I suppose it the point, as the script wouldn't be half as hilarious as it is if our quintet didn't keep putting their collective foot in it.
I think I slightly prefer the first one, which had a more cohesive plot (this felt more like a collection of sketches) and several Bigger Laughs. But the two complement each other well, and when watched together could provide a raucous evening of entertainment. I'd like to say it provided a fitting send-off.... but, nope. More, please..... and TRY to be slightly kinder to them this time......? 7/10

There seem to be two camps of people: those who loved the 'Inbetweeners' TV series and hate their filmic outings and those who loved the TV series and also enjoyed the films. Basically, I have yet to meet anyone who didn't enjoy the three series (so track them down if you haven't already) and yet the films do tend to divide people.
Perhaps both films rely too much on the boys meeting (and therefore interacting) with other characters, instead of concentrating on the banter between the quartet. Plus the story – obviously – has to be stretched out to the full hour and a half length, rather than the 'snappier' twenty-two minute episode length. And, in my opinion, the second film actually surpasses the first in terms of sheer laughs. Yes, it's still not as 'punchy' as the shorter-length episodes, but I found it generally funnier overall than its predecessor.
Basically, if you already know what sort of humour you'll be subjected to in 'The Inbetweeners' movies then you should like this. If you don't, you really better check out a TV episode or two before you chance one of their films. The film, like the series, charts the seemingly never-ending exploits of four hormonally-charged teenage boys and their experiences in wooing the opposite gender. And it's filled with crudeness, lewdness and generally scenes that will make you want to be sick in a swimming pool (you'll have to actually watch the film to get that one).
Don't expect a great plot. Don't expect anything other than a fun film, packed with adult humour which guys will probably be able to relate to, based on their own experiences as hormonally-charged teenagers where nothing/no one seems to go their way. Yes, it's not quite as sharp as the TV series, but it's still a fun way to send the boys off in style.

Like most close school friends come school leavers, we often go our own separate ways. Jay (James Buckley) for instance has gone down under to Australia, where he is living it large with countless women at his luxury mansion whilst knocking out Koala's with one punch – or so he says. After announcing such antics he invites his pals Will, Simon and Neil to join him.
Once there and settled in at a hostel full of spiritual travellers, Will spots Katie (Emily Berrington) an attractive fwrend' from his previous, much posher prep-school, who entices him to go along with Aussie traditions and more. Continuing with the usual Inbetweeners style they quickly let the banter flow, bruises glow and bushes show like we have never seen before.
Spun off from the Channel 4 sitcom, the 'Betweeners remain conventional to what we all remember and expect – so much so that the gags and one- liners now seem rudimentary like the Family Guy or The Simpsons in-jokes that we have all grown to love. Only far, far ruder – which is why it has a 15 rating slapped on it.
Featuring (for the second blockbuster this year) the song 'The First Time I Ever Saw Your Face' – this time sung by Will (Simon Bird), it was as you imagine A possessive girlfriend who cuts Simon's (Joe Thomas) trademark hoodies; Jay's (James Buckley) The Wolf On Wall Street spoof tour of life down under (minus the drug intake), and Neil's (Blake Harrison) usual, well special Forrest Gump behaviour – plus much more, overall it is great fun!
Although now all in their late 20's and early 30's, the boys are back (for another 93 minutes at least anyway) Yet producers (Damon Beesley & Iain Morris) and Inbetweener actors alike have all stated that they would 'never again' come back to relive the characters and that this will in fact be the last outing but knowing the trend of recent films expect a reunion in about 12-15 years from now.
Yes – the fwrends' are back and easily provide several of this year's funniest movie moments so far, confirming why they are quickly becoming the UK's most successful comedy show. Move over Monty Python, there is a new boy band in town.

Featuring (for the second blockbuster this year) the song 'The First Time I Ever Saw Your Face' – this time sung by Will (Simon Bird), it was as you imagine A possessive girlfriend who cuts Simon's (Joe Thomas) trademark hoodies; Jay's (James Buckley) The Wolf On Wall Street spoof tour of life down under (minus the drug intake), and Neil's (Blake Harrison) usual, well special Forrest Gump behaviour – plus much more, overall it is great fun!
Although now all in their late 20's and early 30's, the boys are back (for another 93 minutes at least anyway) Yet producers (Damon Beesley & Iain Morris) and Inbetweener actors alike have all stated that they would 'never again' come back to relive the characters and that this will in fact be the last outing but knowing the trend of recent films expect a reunion in about 12-15 years from now.
Yes – the fwrends' are back and easily provide several of this year's funniest movie moments so far, confirming why they are quickly becoming the UK's most successful comedy show. Move over Monty Python, there is a new boy band in town.

I'm not a great fan of the inbetweeners TV series or their previous film but they both did make me laugh when they where on. Unlike this film however, which for the majority of I groaned and sighed more than I laughed. The jokes were unfunny and over the top crudeness that had no brain behind it. I think I smirked twice, chuckled once and went huh a few times (like 3). The story itself was predictable and boring with some plot points just being plan annoying. In fact one plot point took up a good percentage of the film just to lead to a unfunny predictable joke and made me feel as if my time was wasted. In the end I hated myself for going to see it with my friends, who all but one equally disliked at as I did. In the end fans will flock to this but I have a feeling a few may flock out in disappointment as for average film goers avoid it like the plague.
