Inbetween on this one

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!
