Review

This British cross between American Pie and The Hangover is about a quartet of (for various reasons) awkward teenagers who go to Malia, Crete to drink and get laid – under the excuse of celebrating finishing their A-levels. It's a low-brow tribute to / parody of teen testosterone and North-Western European drinking culture looking to score laughs through viewer-identification, which it does to some degree if you're in the mood for it and/or have the right frame of reference. The plot is equal parts predictable and lame, however, so once you tire of the jokes – which most likely will happen very early – there's not much else to base a movie on.
