The Story of Dwayne Jones : Volume 3

Same old guy, with a brand new story to keep you hooked..


Just when he thinks its all over with 18 GCSE exams now behind him, Dwayne now has the daunting task of leaving his beloved St  Bedes behind and moving on to St Brendans. Thus he has to face the four incredibly challenging AS subjects of English,Geography,Law and Psychology, he also has to adapt to a whole new environment with people he's never met before. After feeling he had just scraped his GCSE's even though his impressive results would suggest otherwise,would Dwayne have enough in his locker to achieve the high grades his family,friends and teachers expect of him?


New friends,strange surroundings and a massive workload.. college has always been the place where the men are separated from the boys. Well everyone knows its a huge step up from the school life anyway.

In a world where getting the top grades is seen as the only way of getting anywhere in life, getting yourself ready for the working world is essential and being the most popular person in town with the most friends is a must, it is not a surprise this film will grab the attention of many nationwide.

Based on the book,this film is fresh off the real life of Dwayne Jones. Up to this point in the series, he has mastered primary and secondary school, the struggle of managing both his social and academic life and recognising what he wants to do with his life. He's now ready for a new challenge and is confident that St Brendans is the right place to take him to the next level.

The same cast returns for a third time with the elder sister of Dwayne who's exceptional academic record he has to attempt to keep up with, along with his parents who makes sure their children are in the best position to achieve. 

People compare this franchise to the famous Harry Potter by JK Rowling, I believe this branding of the film flatters them abit. I do not believe this film is anywhere near top Harry Potter films, however I do believe this film is very successful due to how many people can relate to the situation Dwayne is in. 
 
This film is certainly not appropriate for young people as they would have no interest in the issues and relationships of young adults. However, for almost any other age group(possibly not the elderly) this is a film anyone could get 135 minutes worth of enjoyment. As you know from the second film, Dwayne is a party person, which is why this film has been given a 15 certificate due to their being scenes that may not be appropriate for anyone under that age. 

The film has a captivating storyline throughout and results in him getting what he's always wanted, to do well and make his family proud. He gets that top grade in English that he's worked incredibly hard for throughout the year.


On the whole, this film successfully portrays the struggles,pains and joys of being an adolescent about to enter the big wide world alone.

Rating:  3 out of 5
