Haters just calm down ... And grow up !!
Wasn't expecting a masterpiece just 90 mins of laughs , got that on the most part , it's crude , rude , non pc , immature at times , but don't believe FlashCallahans 'review, there were many laugh out loud moments and groans in the cinema showing I went to . Just enjoy , yes it is like watching the third Inbetweeners movie , but if it ain't broke why fix it .
Poor Inbetween
3rd rate Inbetweeners. Joe Thomas going through the motions. Average at best.
Well... it was OK...
I was quite looking forward to this film. Loved The Inbetweeners and was hoping for more of the same.
It was, well, OK. Quite funny in places, quite dull in others. Joe Thomas plays exactly the same character he always does from the likes of The Inbetweeners, Fresh Meat and White Gold. It's always nice to see the lovely Hannah Tointon in anything. And Claudia O'Doherty is a talented comedic actress.
If you're after some undemanding and obvious laughs, this film is worth a shot. Just don't expect a classic.

Really good comedy
The Festival is a really good comedy that's fun and enjoyable and relaint on a predictable narrative, which is fine. Joe Thomas, Hammed Animashaun and Claudia O'Doherty are all great and Jemaine Clement is a scene stealer in his small part. It's funny and at points hilarious which makes up for the jokes that are gross and don't land. Iain Morris' direction is good, it's well filmed and well paced. The soundtrack is really good.
10 Years Too Late
Seems like a film that should have come out in 2008, it just seemed out of touch. Played Mr Brightside at least 3 times. There were definitely some funny moments but just the same joke formats as the inbetweeners, nothing new. Noticed a joke pinched from Peep Show (no thanks, I'm full). Overall I had a fun time going to see this movie but I will never watch it again.

Amy: Glass houses, mate. You fucked a goat!
- Alternate versionsThe UK release was cut, this film was originally seen for advice. The distributor was advised the film was likely to be classified 18 but that their preferred 15 could be obtained by making reductions to three sequences of crude and sexual behaviour. When the film was submitted for formal classification acceptable reductions has been made the film was classified 15.
