my thoughts on.... 'Trailer Park Boys: Countdown to Liquor Day'

i'll admit.... i'm a little late to the Trailer Park Boys party.... and i've only seen this and the other movie..... none of the TV show.... however, i'm slowly becoming addicted to these guys.... there's just something funny about them that i can't explain.... but whatever it is, it makes me want to watch more of their stuff.... i currently have the entire TV series in my queue on Netflix ready to start a marathon.... so i can see the roots of the show....

between this and the original movie.... i have to say i enjoyed this a bit more.... with a more simplistic plot.... where the landlord of the trailerpark wants to turn their park into high end trailer park.... but runs into some trouble when the boys get out of prison and have other ideas.... the main bad guy has quit drinking and he and his partner do everything they can to win the boys over to their way of thinking.... and the entire time, Bubbles is just trying to get his kitties back.... so they boys try and raise the money anyway they can, right down to planning a bank heist.... meanwhile the main bad guy falls WAY off the wagon and hilarity ensues....
i found myself laughing a lot more at the situations in this movie.... and even to the point of laugh out loud moments.... i would watch this one again, if given the chance.... i can't wait to start the TV series and see what all the buzz has been about for the past several years.... i mean, who thought Canadians could be funny....? (besides Ryan Reynolds)....

my final verdict.... high 3 out of 5 stars.... a worthwhile watch for fans of the show and for non fans just looking for a good goofy comedy.... i mean you have a main character named Bubbles....! that alone is funny by itself....and he steals the show everytime he's on the screen.... anyway.... it's available OnDemand from Netflix right now.... so get off your duffs and load it up in the queue, grab your little glass of liquor and get ready to have an hour and a half of fun.... it's just that simple, eh....?
