Storyline

Recently out of jail and completely broke, Julian has a plan to get outrageously rich. However, he first has to deliver his product to Montreal where his rival Cyrus is waiting to close the deal. In the meantime, the government's plan to legalize marijuana threatens Ricky and his dope business, so he goes to Ottawa to take action against the impending bill. With Julian and Ricky on a road trip, Bubbles joins the pair with his own agenda - to go find the inheritance left for him by his long-lost parents. The trio runs into trouble when ex-park supervisor Jim Lahey and Randy go after the boys in hopes of making them rot in jail.

Trivia

This would be Mike Clattenburg's Swan Song. After directing the film he stepped down completely, and sold all the rights to the Trailer Park Boys plus its affiliated trademarks to Robb Wells, JP Tremblay, and Mike Smith. They purchased it under their 'Swearnet' brand with Netflix agreeing to host their material. (Netflix had already been hosting the former season plus the films and specials for some time)

Quotes

Bubbles: reading the Eulogy written by Ricky at his father's funeral Ricky's a little too upset, understandably so. I'm going to read the words that he prepared. "My dad wasn't always right, but he acted like he was. And that's the most important thing to be 'thunk' of. My dad was awesome and if you don't like him, you can fuck off."

User Reviews

Great Movie, like hanging out with an old friend after not seeing each other for years

First off, I want to say that THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT A MOVIE FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE UNFAMILIAR WITH THE SHOW AND THE CHARACTERS. The movie is clearly geared towards fans of the show and it really makes no effort to introduce the characters and existing side-plots. I can definitely see how sam-victoria did not find the movie to be funny or entertaining at all and I can agree that if you haven't seen the show before (or any of the previous movies), you may as well not waste your time jumping right into this movie - you simply will not understand much of what's going on.

Now that I have vented, I can tell you that for the fans of the show and the people who have gotten to know and love the characters - GO SEE IT RIGHT NOW IF YOU HAVEN'T YET!
