  • Starring: John Paul Tremblay, Mike Smith, Robb Wells
  • Summary: Fresh out of prison yet again, hotheaded but soft-hearted Ricky truly wants to make a proper family with his ex-wife Lucy and his lovable klepto kid, Trinity. But his only hope is to pull off “The Big Dirty” – the one criminal scheme that will end all his worries forever – and he’s going to have to risk everything, including Bubbles and Julian, if his terrifically deluded dreams of good fortune are to have any chance at all of coming true.

    Functions swimmingly as both a bigscreen inflation of smallscreen icons and a fairly hilarious stand-alone.

    I'm sure the pot-laced antics of these trashy dudes are, like, totally hilarious on Canadian TV, but they don't translate well to America or the big screen.

    Proof that the US has no monopoly on white-trash humor.

    This is one of my top 10 movies! I know the snobby critics gave it low reviews but they probably didn't watch the TV show that ran for 7 seasons with 2 movies and 2 specials. I wonder what movie theses critics gave good reviews too.....No country for old Men....That got like 4 oscars for some reason...They probably liked that stupid movie or there will be blood...I'd rather get my teeth pulled out than watch those again. Those critics can suck my canadian nuts@ck!… Expand

    Out of the blue, halfway into "Trailer Park Boys: The Movie", this shaggy-dog movie goes lyrical on us. It must be the April Wine. After Ricky(Robb Wells) slips in a eight-track(!) of the popular Nova Scotia band from the seventies in the car's deck, he lights up a joint and sees Lucy(Lucy Decoutere) cross the car's rear window. The stripper looks sadly beautiful in slo-mo. It looks like something out of Sofia Coppola's "The Virgin Suicides". The images that play over the end credits to the accompaniment of The Tragically Hip, seconds the filmmaker's attempt at artistry, in an otherwise dumb, but surprisingly watchable adaptation of a Canadian television series. Pot, street hockey, and the f-word, Ricky has a pottymouth. Jersey boys, you say. You think: "Trailer Park Boys" is an offshoot of Kevin Smith's "Clerks", until you realize these cash-strapped dudes are Canadian. They're going to smoke pot and play hockey, even if Kevin Smith never existed.… Expand
