Smoke'n Trailer Park Boys Rule January 7, 2010
OndaBeach (Texas)
First off, that sounds like a good plan to make some money Hockey Town Dude. The Boys would be proud, you could make like 10-12 bucks a day from those Ebay Dicks. Not quite enough to keep you in hash, rum and chicken fingers but hey, what's stealin' for? Anyways, one of the charms of this TV show that made it such a popular cult favorite is the low-budget, handheld camera technique. Despite the big budget, hollywood production of the movie it still holds all of that Trailer Park Boys charm.
The Boys get oot of jail (kicked oot early, so Ricky can't play goal in the guards vs. inmates ball hockey tournament) and hatch a plan for The Big Dirty, one last heist that will allow them to retire. They're all set to steal vast quantities of change .. why change? Duh .. it's completely untraceable! As can be expected, things don't go 'exactly' as planned and our boys run into trouble with the law.
Another difference between this movie and the show is in the ending. At the center of every TPB plot is a similarly bizarre money-making scheme that goes awry. Of course, the movie is no different but the ending might be a little happier than hardcore TPB fans are accustomed to.
The movie is not canon with the show, you can see a list of a few differences between the movie and the show on wikipedia.
Filmed in beautiful Nova Scotia the cinematography is absolutely amazing. Sets include a trailer park and a prison, I know .. not so beautiful. But a nice, peaceful blue sky sat over many scenes that perfectly fit our Boys' usually frenetic action (I mean 'perfectly fit' in the way that their nice, serene theme music fits them perfectly). ;)
Bubbles' Xmas January 7, 2010

Excellent DVD that covers many intros to how the Boys came to be. A must buy for fans of the Trailer Park Boys!

If you like TPB this Christmas special is hilarious. It shows you how things got the way they are and why in Sunnyvale.
Very Special Xmas Indeed! September 21, 2009

This is a must-have for any Trailer Park Boys fan. Besides being hilarious this special shows exactly how much the "boys" care for each other and their friends in their own special ways. I loved finally seeing more of when the "boys" were young, how Lahey really lost his job, how Randy became part of trailer park life and J-Roc and Tyrone before they were J-Roc and Tyrone. Don't wait for Xmas - this special is great any time of the year!
 Humble Beginings! Anything TPB is OK w-me! September 9, 2009

All the bonus features like TPB's101 are probably the best part of the DVD. I enjoyed the X-Mas special&learning a lil' more background about the boys from the Park in this Prequel to the Amazing Canadian series... Ricky delivers a sermon in the end of the show that is one of the best monologues of the entire series. You get a look at a Pre- J-Roc aka Jamie. Before he became the loud ghetto talking HipHop wannabe, he had a whiney canadian accent, wore khaki pants(not Ka-Hay-key as Ricky would say)&sweaters his mother purchased&dressed him in. Layhe is still a cop&Randy is still a shirtless cheeseburger eatin prostitute....
If you are a real true fan this is a must watch&important addition to the collection. Although it contains several laugh til you pee moments, I will say that it's one of my least favorite episodes but in all honesty the special features make up for what the episode lacks.
