Legacy

The blooper reel at the end of 'Legacy' sums it up in a way. It's there, but there's no real reason for it. None of the clips shown as bloopers are particularly funny or memorable and yet here they are keeping us watching for an extra 90 seconds or so. The movie's much the same. A lot of the movie is nothing more than filler as they try desperately to scratch their way to 90 minutes.

It's a strange film in a lot of ways. You can tell it was intended as an "Inbetweeners meets Project X" but it falls well short on both counts. None of the characters have any charm or charisma (and rarely manage to actually make us laugh) and the party the whole film is based around is about as dull as you could possibly imagine. Another character who opposes the party even makes fun of how lame the party looks (balloons - are you kidding me?)

The filmmakers were clearly given free-range over the amount of nudity that was allowed to be included and boy did they take full advantage. There's gratuitous nudity and then there's - well this. I have no problem with nudity being shown but at least try and write it in a moderately clever way rather than characters simply being naked for the hell of it.

I think that's what sums up the whole thing is just the laziness of how it's all put together. Not enough time is spent trying to make us laugh and the times the script does try it lacks actors with the ability to pull it off. The pacing of the movie is also off and things (especially the party) really drag because of this. The ending is unsatisfactory (after all the gratuitous things included they cut out what would have been a very satisfying fight scene) which I can only put down to even more laziness on the filmmakers part. All in all a disappointing effort.

I'm not even taking about the nudity when I say this film's sexist, they could have kept all the nudity and the film would still be way less sexist if they simply didn't fill the script with sexist lines and jokes. Even if your goal is to make a sexy movie that will appeal to people attracted to women, you don't need to be this offensive in doing it. Other than that the film was surprisingly actually alright that's what makes it such a shame, they could have done really well for a low budget movie but they just couldn't resist degrading women, I don't know who was responsible but it's a disservice to everyone else involved.

Unsuspectedly very good British film, very funny and the diversity was a great idea and engaging from the start! Very much enjoyable.

This film made me register to write reviews and that's mainly because British films don't always get the credit they deserve especially with all the hard work everybody puts in.

Its a make or break situation! Who will win?

Get the lads in and the beers and you'll be having a laugh in no time unless you don't like party's and naked girls.

If you want to know how good the film is then go buy it :-)

FINAL REVIEW - DEFFO WORTH A WATCH !

I do not get how this movie got 5.2 when I saw this. Was it a decent movie? Not at all. Arrogant teens wanna throw a party like they are adults and too many mistakes were made. Poor acting and the lack of feeling like this was a movie was too large. I sincerely hope that those who up voted this movie was the actors themselves, cause this is not even worth a watch , just cause someone is bored or anything. You might as well find another movie. Poor job all around.

Entire movie based around nonsense and I needed to fast forward several times just to see if it became anything better than what it was. It did not unfortunately. Better watch Project x or another one. Had somewhat hope for it to be a decent time killer, but it just lacks too much.

The movie was bad . Can't say more ... if I were to have professional equipment and decided to make a movie with my friends for fun that's what it would had been like .
