I have seen the movie twice already, once at the premiere and the second time fairly recent at home.
The production value is 100% improvment over the webseries and you can clearly see that a writer and skilled director knew what they were doing.
The story is not the most complicated I have seen but it still works and is an adjustment from what the webseries usually delivers.
The movie feels round and looks great so it is a watch recommendation despite what other reviews say.
I definitely didn't waste my time and applaud the effort to lift up the concept and make something I wouldn't watch watchable.
There is no need for a sequel but I would love to see more from the writers, director and actors in their individual projects.
3.8Plot summary
To celebrate their graduation, the class of a Berlin high school sets off to Croatia, accompanied by two of their teachers, who are supposed to be taking care of the students. But the trip soon gets out of hand as wannabe rapper McLarry finds out that his idol, musician Zeno, is in Croatia, too. In order to find his villa, McLarry and some of the other kids get sucked into the adventure of a lifetime. Stressed-out teachers, lovesickness and anxiety about the future come together in this youth-orientated comedy, which aims to be as authentic and as true to life as possible.

a little trip back to my own school days
The team around "Krass Klassenfahrt" is taking a big step forward here onto the big cinema screen. This was much better than expected before and it remains exciting to see what comes next.
The Online-series is a little bit silly... But they create a bigger adventure which makes me want to travel again. The fact that the creators of the series got professional help is very noticeable. Despite all the help, the series creators' own handwriting remains noticeable and they didn't allow themselves to be bent too much - so its definitly not a typical german movie. This film is a far from the horrific influencer films of the past in Germany. Many funny scenes and situations bring back very vivid memories of your own old school days.
Respect for this achievement and all the best for Jonas and his friends on his further way.

A solid improvement compared to the web-series
I am certain everybody who is a fan of the web-series will like the movie, but more importantly, you can enjoy it even if you don't know the web-series.
The production value is great, it has a well written story, a great soundtrack, enough funny moments and no pacing issues.
Granted you will not get a revolutionary super deep story with new insights that will change your view on the human condition, but come on, what are your expectations when you go into a light-hearted comedy movie?
That's why I am puzzled when I read all the negative and salty reviews.
If you don't take yourself too serious when you go into the movie, you will have a great time!
