In 2000, the British comedy Kevin & Perry Go Large hit the big screen, directed by Ed Bye and written by Harry Enfield and David Cummings. The film follows the adventures of two teenage boys, Kevin (Harry Enfield) and Perry (Kathy Burke), as they try to become superstar DJs and lose their virginity on a clubbing holiday in Ibiza. Kevin and Perry are two best friends from suburbia who dream of becoming famous DJs. However, they're both losers in the eyes of their parents and peers, mocked for their nerdy looks and awkward personalities. They spend most of their time at home, making terrible music in their bedroom and hiding from their parents. But all of this changes when Kevin's parents announce that they plan to spend their summer holiday in Ibiza.

Ibiza is the legendary hub for partygoers and hedonists from all over the world; it's Kevin and Perry's dream come true. They see it as an opportunity to become famous DJs by showing off their musical talent and getting noticed. All they need to do is to get themselves to a top DJ competition on the island, and they're sure they'll win it.

So, Kevin and Perry embark on a raunchy adventure of clubbing, dancing, flirting, and chasing their dreams. They meet a range of eccentric and colorful characters, including a drug dealer named Eyeball Paul (Rhys Ifans), who becomes their guide and mentor in the island's nightlife. In addition to inspiring them to be the coolest DJs in Ibiza, Eyeball Paul also helps them in their quest to lose their virginity, as both Kevin and Perry are desperately seeking sex.

The film is filled with hilarious scenes and sketches, showcasing the characters' clumsy attempts to blend in with the Ibiza nightlife. They try out different outfits, hairstyles, dance moves, and even take drugs and get drunk to fit in. However, their efforts are often in vain, as they make a series of embarrassing mistakes, causing them to stand out even more.

As the film progresses, Kevin and Perry's friendship is tested, as they both have romantic interests in the same girl, Candice (Laura Fraser). The rivalry between them culminates in an epic DJ battle at the club, where they have to prove their skills and win the audience's hearts. The scene is a tribute to the famous DJ competitions and showcases the wit and humor for which the movie is famous.

Overall, Kevin & Perry Go Large is a classic teenage comedy that captures the spirit of its time. It features amusing characters, lively music, and lots of memorable one-liners, making it a cult classic among Britons and dance music fans. The movie is a perfect tribute to the Ibiza lifestyle and a reminder of the awkwardness and drama of adolescence.
