Trailer Park Boys: Countdown to Liquor Day

With instant-classical writers like Mike Clattenburg, JP, Robb, and Mike, it's amazing that just like rock bands, sitcoms, and every other solid-fresh hit that comes up, fame, money, and deadlines, eat away at the beginning of what made them all great. Although, after seeing the 3 live at Jimmy Kimmel's this summer here in L.A., I knew only the audience at the show and some of the fans who tuned in really dug their comedy and it was like seeing the Ramones or U2 in the late '70'S when people would say to each other at a concert, "man these guys are gonna be big". Cyrus, Leahy, Sam, and the others all made them shine and that's what they forgot. The cast makes the stars shine. When they intro'd Phil Collins in the series and he gets hit in Leahy's trailer and burps or when Sam is given mushrooms before he speaks, or even the little one liner's from Ricky like, "This is my pet Crow, Sheryl', delivery and irony is what made them cutting edge. I still can't stop laughing, I mean really laughing, when I even think of JP asking Cory & Trevor, where they got the guys for J-Roc's nightclub, and they say with "straight" faces, "The Empty Closet"...oh man, what timing...But, just Like JP says as he leaves them to go back in the club, "They just don't get it". "Like s**t and strawberry shortcake".

The trailer park boys began as just Ricky and Julian. originally, Julian was supposed to die in 5 days after talking to a phone psychic. he wanted to get those last 5 days on videotape. 10 years later, that camera crew still followed him around, all the way up to liquor day.

After spending 2 years in jail, Ricky, Julian and bubbles all come back to Sunnyvale and discover it is in ruins, and that Mr. lahey has opened up a new trailer park. the boys' plans; Julian wants to go legit by opening a car garage, Ricky wants to get his grade 12 and be the leader, and bubbles just wants his kitties back after lahey barricaded the kitty door on his shed. but soon all these plans are compromised, and like always, the boys plans always fall through.

I laughed at the few parts in the movie theatre, and it was certainly better than the big dirty (which was a major disappointment.) because it had what the trailer park boys are known for; pure comic genius. more of the boys, less of Lucy's boobs.

Also, i'd like to point out this is the last trailer park boys show we're gonna see. so after this, no more Ricky, Julian, and bubbles.

i recommend you wait to rent this one. wasting 10 bucks on a big screen and 10 more for drinks and popcorn doesn't feel worth it, but unless you're a hardcore fan like i am, then go see it while the theatres still have it.

8/10

Wow, I did not have high expectations for the sequel to a movie adaptation of a TV show, but sometimes good writers and hilarious actors come together to make something special. Trailer Park Boys: Countdown to Liquor Day is one of those films that will remain in our DVD collection forever. It's a movie you pull out to watch with friends over and over again because it's so incredibly funny. I've seen it many times and can't get enough of it. I can't for the DVD to be out February 23rd so I can finally own it. Seriously, if you haven't seen this film you're missing out. We all love the Trailer Park Boys (And if you don't start with this movies!) and this is another fine outing for them.

An 8, but a very solid 8! meaning very good! production values are high, and the story drags just a little in a couple of spots, but overall, it is quite a ride! when was the last time you saw bubbles w/a "love interest"? (never!) lots to enjoy here. lahey (and randy) have never been better. great to see jim in such a non-TPB locale at the beginning and end-the movie is structured very cleverly, bookends and throughout. you'll be entertained from the moment it starts, and doubly when you read "(just) one week earlier..." ; )

I remember when this show started, I wondered what the hell I was watching, But it grew on me. ANd i absolutely fell in love with the characters. The only disappointment about the movie was it is supposed to be the last one. There is no real story line, but its as funny as it gets. I had a blast watching it.

If you not into the Trailer park boys, you should still watch this. ITs a fantastic Way to support Canadian Cinema and honestly, you will laugh you head off! I miss the show and this was awesome. I am sad they wont be back. Lok at the ratings they are getting!

WE WANT MORE TRAILER PARK BOYS!
