Editorial Review:
From producer Ivan Reitman comes Trailer Park Boys: The Movie— a comedy full of drugs, alcohol and strippers. When the raunchy, ruckus residents of Sunnyvale Trailer Park, Ricky, Julian and Bubbles end up in prison, they hatch a plan to pull off the "Big Dirty". With world wide box office success and a hit TV show, Trailer Park Boys: The Movie is guaranteed to be a smash hit!
Description of Trailer Park Boys - The Movie:
Reprobates rule in Trailer Park Boys: The Movie, a feature version of the popular comedy series about serious losers Ricky (Robb Wells) and Julian (John Paul Tremblay), trailer park trash who can't survive a day without planning the ultimate heist. As the film begins, Ricky is living out of his car and planning a quick and easy theft of an ATM. Naturally, it goes terribly wrong, as with every other scam and felony set into motion in this winning satire about life on the bottom of the food chain. Wells and Tremblay are superb (sometimes brilliant) as their no-apology and bizarrely prideful characters, who occasionally fall out with one another but remain loyal, even during ball hockey sessions in the slammer. Very funny stuff. --Tom Keogh
Trailer Park Boys - The Movie Reviews:
Very funny movie 
2008-09-25 - Trailer Park Boys is the story about some lovable losers. The characters are taken from a popular Canadian sitcom. I have to check out whether any of the TV shows are available on dvd. If you prefer to watch shows like "My Name is Earl" or "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" or even "Seinfield" than shows about wealthy people like "Dallas" or the upwardly mobile like "Friends", try this out. These are basically non-violent petty criminals just trying to take care of their friends and families, their cats, and pay for their bad habits like cigarettes, booze and "weed." And they are so inept at it, that they are constantly in trouble.
Free range kitties! 
2008-08-30 - this is the best- the show was good, this movie based on the tvshow is great- there are not enough words to express the joy and fun - this is a keeper, to watch over and over again
A twisted movie from a great comedy series 
2008-07-28 - If you have only the time available to watch a single DVD of the Trailer Park Boys, make it this one. However, I'd recommend that you watch the TPB series first and save this movie until the end.
Check out my longer review of Trailer Park Boys Seasons 1 & 2 if you're unsure about this comedy.
The biggest difference between this movie and the first season is the emergence of Bubbles, the kitten-owning, guitar-strumming, Rush-loving man living in a shed.
No TPB Fan 
2008-07-06 - This isn't Shakespeare. I knew nothing of the TPB series before watching the movie and reading the reviews at this site. It seems that TPB fans like the movie because it fits in well with the series. I prefer movies that are realistic. I believe that most people who do dope, drink too much, party hearty at great length, and commit petty crimes for a living are mean-spirited, but the key characters in TPB seem to be basically kind-hearted. In other words, it's hard for me to laugh at the antics of this sort of person, because I know that, in the real world, these antics lead to a lot of pain. Of course, this movie features caricatures of people who engage in this kind of behavior, and there is humor in any human scenario. I gave the film two stars because the acting was solid. The players knew their roles and did yeoman work.
Great Show, Great Movie! 
2008-07-04 - If you like to laugh, and aren't an uptight Negative Nancy, then you will love the antics of these beloved characters!
