💥 Kevin & Perry Go Large Reviews

Personal Review

Okay, so I watched this movie expecting a laugh riot, and it’s definitely… something. The humor is SO over-the-top and gross, like, zit-popping on steroids. But there’s a weird charm to it, like watching a train wreck. I definitely cringed a lot, but I also laughed, mostly because it’s so ridiculous. If you’re in the mood for something brainless and don’t mind toilet humor, give it a shot. The ‘So Unfair!’ moments are iconic!

  • Who would enjoy:
    • “Fans of Harry Enfield’s TV show”
    • “People who enjoy crude, over-the-top comedy”
    • “Those nostalgic for the 90s club scene and dance music”
    • “Viewers who appreciate British humor”
  • Content warnings ⚠:
    • “Crude humor and toilet gags”
    • “Sexual references and innuendo”
    • “Suggestive scenes”
    • “Drug references”

Professional Reviews

  • IMDb: “An endless barrage of erection, vomit, and toilet humor. Some moments might raise a smile, like Kevin’s parents finding a second honeymoon in Ibiza or Rhys Ifans’ OTT DJ, but laughs are few. Mostly a waste of time.
  • IMDb: “Crude, but a reflection of youth culture abroad. It pokes fun at the naivety of youth. The parents are amazing, and Rhys Ifans as Eyeball Paul is refreshingly crude. A depiction of REAL youth culture
  • IMDb: “The jokes are stretched out too far. The story sees Kevin and Perry (from the Harry Enfield and Chums sketch show) go to Ibiza with Kevins parents. I would recommend this film only if you are a fan of the Harry Enfield show, or you like gross humour.

Audience Reactions

Loved the soundtrack and the Ibiza club scenes – felt like reliving the golden age of clubbing!: Those who were a teenager in the late 90s and early 2000s and who love dance music love this film.

Good film to watch with friends: It’s great for laughs with friends.

Overall Consensus: Highly divisive, you either find the crude humor hilarious or unbearably awful. Nostalgia for the era and the music seems to improve opinions.
