I've never actually seen the TV series so I went into this film pretty much blind, I'd seen the trailer and thought it seemed pretty up my street. I was exactly right, perfect British humour with hilarious moments that lead to just an enjoyable film. The writing in this is so good and the jokes and cringe moments work so well. I like the sort of documentary style of filming this has, I think it works so well with the characters and the way they present themselves. Being from England myself there were so many British tropes and jokes in this that really made me laugh. I haven't laughed this much in a film for a long time. Nothing much to really say about this film other than go and see it if your looking for a funny new film to see. Hilarious!

Hilarious!
Kurupt FM goes cinematic! Same feel as the series. Lowkey classic.
'People Just Do Nothing: Big in Japan' (2021) is honestly one of those very lowkey but classic films. It retains the same humor and style from the series, and is almost the perfect mockumentary film if you've seen the series.
I'm biased because I loved the series, and this film relies a little bit on the series, but as a standalone film its still funny. The humor is dry, cringey, and a perfect mockumentary style. Everything is executed surprisingly well especially the dialogue and camera shots.
My only complaints are that this film is near impossible to watch if you are in the United States. Buy the dvd or hoist the sails I guess. I do wish there was more musical performances by Kurupt FM though.
Overall, its pretty great for fans. Still pretty good for fresh ears though especially if you know people who act like an overgrown child at times. Find the film somehow and watch it!
