Swearnet

What's with the Negative reviews? I be like WTF!!!! Apparently you need to have a seriously immature sense of humor to enjoy this movie. And my funny bone is F'd up. But at the same time I can take things very serious when I need to. People need to open their minds and let the inner child out. Truth be told though, of course I like their TPB personas much more. But Swearnet was just plain funny. The cock jokes, the swearing, the substance abuse and the occasional nudity. I too hate censorship. If I could still post it, this review would be filled with swear words and possibly a picture of my cock.

Even though this is NOT a Trailer Park Boys movie it IS a Trailer Park Boys movie. The 3 stars of the cult favourite TV series and many of the supporting cast members play "themselves" in this movie about setting up their own TV network so that they won't have to put up with any more censorship. Apparently they REALLY like swearing!

The boys kind of play the same characters that they do in the TPB series but with some differences. For instance "Mike Smith" is a violent, drug and booze fuelled party monster. Pretty much the polar opposite to Bubbles. John Dunsworth shows absolutely nothing of Jim Lahey. Pat Roach is a real hoot as Swearman although "Dickman" might be a more accurate name. He has a pretty good sized role in this and does a good job. Tom Green and Carrot Top are kind of blah in their parts. Tom has an obsession with handing out key-chains and Carrot Top kind of reminds me of the late Joan Rivers in a Ronald McDonald wig. Insert bad plastic surgery joke here.

Over all a darn good movie. It isn't going to win an Oscar but then have you actually watched some of the crap that HAS won an Oscar? If dick jokes, weed, booze and F-bombs turn you off then turn this off. Likewise if you hate the Trailer Park Boys you will hate this. If you like the TPBs then you will like this.

I give it a solid 8 out of 10

This movie is horrible. I absolutely loved anything TPB but this completely changed my opinion of the actors/writers. What an embarrassment... Why would they ever think this was a good idea?

Ignoring the fact it was in a way a self promotion for the three( which is understandable considering at first they weren't even paid very well. So they have to make a name for themselves) and it's a self commodity business in a way. Mind you, being a "icon" or "star" is not easy. That being said. I thought the movie was basic, but fun. Made me laugh throughout the whole movie, and maybe that's just me getting their humor, but even with carrot top( no disrespect Tom green) I knew that dude from celebrity death match and so on. I did have some questions though but minor, like how'd the girls come into play? Are they really together like that? Did they really do acid like that? You know just simple questions I'd go on Reddit for. Overall i liked it and if you won't get " offended" I guess about how they do certain things it's a fun watch sober or not. If your a big fan you can appreciate what they do, if you're coming into it cold that's understandable. Take it how you will.

I ADORE the Trailer Park Boys i'll just pin that up before I go into anything. The characters are lovable, the narrative develops nicely and over offers a very interesting aspect and satire to Canadian life.

So what happened with Swearnet: The Movie? I struggled with this film so much. Its hard to watch a bad movie but it's harder to watch a bad movie with actors/writers that you love and have seen produce some great work in the past.

Swearnet:The Movie is the story of Robb Wells, John Paul Tremblay and Mike Smith creation of their own internet network 'Swearnet' and thats the plot in a nutshell. The movie likes to make things very clear that this ISN'T Trailer Park Boys with constant reminders at the beginning and if that wasn't enough perhaps to poor writing and Mike Smiths character would remind you enough. The whole execution of the movie plays out like a 14 year old boys pubescent fantasy. The jokes fall flat, the characters a largely unlikable and development of said characters doesn't exist instead they just switch like a light 3 quarters the way through which again is subject to poor writing. If it isn't enough that their own characters are marginally irritating then they brought in Tom Green and Carrot Top to make things wholly annoying as well as add absolutely nothing to the film. Their really isn't much that can be said about this film than it exists. It is a prime example of how a swearword can loose it's impact after repeated use and just become annoying and after a record breaking 935 F#@k's this has been proved 10 times over. I wouldn't recommend this film to anybody. Even if you're a fan of the Trailer Park Boys I would find anything but this to watch as the only feeling I got after this film finished was embarrassment and general sadness inside, don't get me wrong though their is way worse than this. 3/10
