A Solid F
It is well versed in British culture that TV programmes that make the leap from the small screen to the big tend to lose a certain something which made its' success on the former so appealing and noteworthy. Take The Inbetweeners for example, a series which not only was critically acclaimed during its' three series stint, but was also remarkably original and incredibly watchable to the extent I no longer can watch them due to the severity in which I laughed at constant repeat viewings. The hotly anticipated big-screen leap of The Inbetweeners brought about much fandom screeching and hope for continued success yet the finished results ultimately failed in bringing the brilliance of the series to a wider audience whilst the appalling sequel shouldn't even be recognised as a continuation of the now finished series.
Much like The Inbetweeners, Jack Whitehall's Bad Education has now decided to take the jump from the small to the large screen yet remarkably like the two Inbetweeners movies, The Bad Education Movie is a disaster from start to finish, filled with racism, stereotype hugging and cringe-worthy jokes that surely will only succeed in bringing joy to that of pubescent teenagers, something of which Mr Whitehall surely thinks he still is even at the slender age of 27. You know a film is set to be unbelievably awful when the first scene features a Jew-filled Anne Frank museum being swiftly terrorised by Whitehall's Alfie Wickers and his incredibly annoying students which not only is highly offensive to both the memory of Anne Frank, the Jewish community and the horror of the holocaust in general, but is so immature and tasteless in its' execution, it beggars belief why such a film was ever conceived in the first place. Want my opinion? The Bad Education Movie should have stayed where it belongs; on the TV and out of my cinema.
