Trailer Park Boys: Countdown to Liquor Day

The last time i saw the boys in action, it was November of last year. Ricky, Julian and Bubbles are about to get out of jail, and this time, Julian vows to go straight, even open a legit business. Soon the Boys will all be rich. But when they arrive back at the park, they find it's not the same old Sunnyvale—and it's not the same old Jim Lahey, Trailer Park Supervisor.

Lahey's a new man, hasn't had a drink for two years. And he has plans—BIG PLANS—for Sunnyvale. Too bad for Lahey that Julian stands in his way. Having the Boys back in the park is too much pressure for Lahey to bear. With his big plans for Sunnyvale going down the toilet, and his relationship with Randy broken down, the countdown to liquor day is on for Jim Lahey.

Meanwhile, Julian's having problems of his own. His business fails and the Boys are forced to resort to doing what they know best—breaking the law. Soon Lahey's descent into the liquor coupled with the Boys descent into crime puts them all on a collision course to destruction. Trailer Park Boys: Countdown To Liquor Day 10/10

I was lucky enough to score an advanced screening Monday.

Where the first movie and the seventh season failed, this one did amazing. One of my biggest complaints about the first movie was that they had too much going, with Ricky wanting to get back with Lucy, the Big Dirty, Julian and his new girlfriend, etc. This one stayed to the story and had amazing scenes.

I laughed more than I did at The Hangover, and it was the first movie I've been to where the entire theater laughed. I think it was one of the best things they've filmed. There was a small side plot or two but they in no way took away from the movie and didn't interfere with the main story at all and didn't take much screen time at all (which The Big Dirty definitely did wrong).

It did indeed feel like it was made for fans, but don't expect anything more than a 5 second appearance from Cyrus/Sam/George/Ted. Terry and Dennis and Barb weren't in it at all. I actually feared they would do this, but it was still a lot better than I ever could have expected.

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".

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!

It isn't really necessary to watch the series before this movie but it helps. If you already know the characters from the series it's just funnier and easier to appreciate this movie. The humor (sometimes subtle) is repetitive but that's what made that show great. Watching John Paul Tremblay holding his everlasting glass of liquor, witnessing how the dumb mind of Robb Wells works, looking at the strangeness of Mike Smith, or the akward relationship between John Dunsworth and Patrick Roach, it's all something we were used to in the series so nothing new in this movie, but it is still damn entertaining. You have to have a special sense of humor but if you do Trailer Park Boys is always a blast to watch.
