Standing on the Shoulders of Kitties

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?

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.

I am a huge fan of the Boys so it would come as no surprise that I would give this film a 5 star rating. I did genuinely enjoy the film and my rating isn't just out of bias.

I am glad to see how Bubbles, Ricky, and Julian (yes Randy too) have grown over the years. Through the all the shows, movies, podcasts, and seasons it is very evident of the love, care, and concern they have for one another. If you are wondering, yes I realize that they are characters.

In Standing on the Shoulders of Kitties we get to see Bubbles be the center of the story as he pursues his music career. While Ricky and Julian are present, Bubbles takes center stage (no pun intended) here. From the formation of the S**trockers, to the veteran's hall circuit, right through to opening for Billy Bob Thorton's band The Boxmasters on their European Tour, we get to see the blood, sweat, and tears to see Bubbles live his childhood dreams of seeing his name in lights.

If you are a fan of the Trailer Park Boys then you have probably already seen this film, twice. If you haven't, what are you waiting for. If you are a fan of comedy, swearing, and some good old fashion potty humor with a solid underdog story than this film is for you. You will be very happy with Standing on the Shoulders of Kitties, just come back so I can say, "Atodaso."

I'll firstly state that I enjoyed this film so much primarily because I'm a huge fan of Trailer Park Boys. This film is a serious treat for those who enjoyed the TV series, you get an immediate nostalgic feeling seeing them on the screen again and you even get taken back to the trailer park itself giving the fans something they want to see. The storyline is good, but this comes second to me as I was just happy to see them all together again. IF I hadn't seen trailer park boys, would I have enjoyed it? Perhaps not as much BUT this was clearly made for the fans and I absolutely love them for it!

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.
