The Festival | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Stephen Dalton Hollywood Reporter Not exactly groundbreaking comedy, but Morris clearly knows his youthful audience demographic well, playing on their hang-ups as much as their aspirations. Aug 22, 2018 Full Review The Festival | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Simran Hans Observer (UK) It's the specificity of the stereotypes that Morris hangs out to dry that make the film so funny. Rated: 4/5 Aug 20, 2018 Full Review The Festival | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Ryan Gilbey New Statesman After the initial sticky patch, audiences are likely to find themselves amenable and even enthusiastic - much like the festival experience, in fact. Aug 17, 2018 Full Review The Festival | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Nick Reilly NME (New Musical Express) The Festival - a gloriously puerile celebration of mud and music... Rated: 4/5 Apr 29, 2021 Full Review The Festival | Rotten Tomatoes (5) David Brake One Room With A View It all feels so disappointingly similar, retelling old jokes, backed by the rather old-fashioned narrative of a man trying to reclaim his ex-girlfriend. Rated: 2/5 Feb 11, 2019 Full Review The Festival | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Victoria Luxford metro.co.uk It takes a little while to get going, but once it does The Festival is a funny take on a British summer institution. Rated: 3/5 Jan 8, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Bradley G The Festival makes you ponder on what could happen in any type of life decision around the university life as I will admit I had a few laughs while watching but I felt it was really wear and tear on The Inbetweeners humour. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/31/24 Full Review T T This was actually pretty funny and entertaining. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/19/23 Full Review vasilis t One of the worst movies i ever seen. Even if i knew that it's gonna be a stereotypical American teen sallow movie, they didn't even try to make it run smoothly or something. It's just a collage of cheap and expected jokes that we have seen so many times Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/28/22 Full Review Manny P Let's recreate the same character from the Inbetweeners and watch him fall flat on his arse. To realise you're already typecast at such an early age must be a real ball breaker. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/30/21 Full Review Audience Member Claudia O'Doherty deserves every good thing Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member The Festival is overtly safe especially given the subject, and the producers rely too heavily in the formula they have culminated from past endeavors. The festival manages to deliver on that tried and true formula more than enough to keep the party going however. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews
