Standing on the Shoulders of Kitties: The Bubbles and the Rockers Story

I walked into this movie with no expectations and found myself pleasantly surprised. "Standing on the Shoulders of Kitties" offers a fun-filled ride that doesn't try to be overly ambitious but thrives in its quirky charm. The humor lands well for the most part, with many of the musical numbers standing out as both catchy and funny, contributing significantly to the film's playful tone. While it's not groundbreaking in terms of storytelling, its lighthearted nature makes it an enjoyable experience.

The film combines clever visuals with witty dialogue, leaning heavily into its feline-inspired humor. The cinematography is vibrant, often drawing attention to small, delightful details that enhance the overall vibe. The cast do a solid job bringing energy and personality to their roles, ensuring the film stays engaging throughout.

Perosnally, the ending leaves something to be desired. It feels slightly underwhelming, failing to deliver the emotional it seems to aim for. While this doesn't ruin the overall experience, it does temper the impact of the story's conclusion.

Ultimately, "Standing on the Shoulders of Kitties" is a movie that doesn't take itself too seriously, and neither should its audience. It's perfect for those seeking a light, entertaining watch. Though the ending didn't entirely resonate with me, the film still earns its charm through humor, creativity, and a good dose of feline fun.

Trailer park boys, used to be a cool show, but that was like perhaps 20 years ago. Unfortunately time is a cruel thing, so now everybody who left from the show are looking worn out, and the magic is lost. The main character bubbles tries his best apparently, but he can't carry the silly show on is shoulders, while the rest are hardly contributing. I understand this guys want to cash in on the success of the show, but enough is enough, they just recycling each year bubbles juvenile rock star whims, and the silly tour to Europe concept, that are really not interesting or funny any more, and are kind of stupid (the all kitties songs for example). For me trailer park boys ended when Jim Lahey (John Dunsworth) died, everything they made afterward was just got bad and stopped being funny.

So i would advise everybody to skip this, and just rewatch the original series instead.

It's great to have the boys back in something new, but this just lacks the charm.

There's a few funny moments but in general it's not that great.

It's another classic Mike Smith movie, barely any Ricky and Julian and all just about Bubbles.

It's a shame because the park scenes are still pretty good.

Having said that it is good to have them back, and worth a watch just for that. Having said that it is good to have them back, and worth a watch just for that.

Such a lovely heartwarming film with the very best bubbles, if you dont know about trailer park boys then this won't be for you of course but give trailer park a watch then come back to this you will not be disappointed, bubbles defiantly knows how to capture his audience and bring the love and warmth, it was lovely seeing ricky and Julian aswell, hopefully this kick starts something we want trailer park back to brilliant film with amazing people, i have 4 cats myself and the kitty song is so sad but so lovely, and the end was brilliant cant wait to see more from bubbles and the boys, il be going over to swear net now to watch park after dark.

First, let's start by saying I'm a big fan of the TPB. I've ben watching them from season 1 on Showcase back in 2001. It was a fantastic show, original, and Canadian and as a Canadian myself this was appealing.

The series really ended for me when it was taken over by Netflix and "Americanized" losing its charm. Anyhow...

Now to this "movie".

How many times can Mike Smith repackage the same bubbles jokes? Here we once again find Bubbles locked in a phone booth, this time in England? Did we not see this joke back when he was stuck in a phone booth in Maine?

How many trips to Europe do we need? Good god, they even have the same actors just playing slightly different roles. (Those who watched "out of the park Europe" will get the references).

Bubbles was always a side character, you can only take so much of him, especially when it seems Mike Smith is driving the show (Conky anyone)??

Too much Bubbles, too much Mike Smith and ZERO TBP charm.

It is a shame because if you watch "the trades" you can see they can play other characters and the cast works well together. I did not like "Susan" on TBP but her revival as "Stephanie" on the trades nailed it.

Mike needs to move on, and stop trying to milk the franchise for all its worth. We don't need to watch yet another "bubbles stuck in a phone booth" skit, you have covered it like half a dozen times now?

If you are thinking of watching this... Go watch Trailer Park boys instead. You an reminisce when the show was good and stop at season 8 (Netflix).

About the only funny thing in the movie was Randy's attempt to "earn" enough money to get back home, but again, did we not see this skit already at least once in the past?
