Comparing it to the TV show, it disappointed me

I am a big trailer park boys fan. And this movie, i really wanted to see it when it came out, but i figured, "hey, i'm 17, i can't get in."

yeah right. this movie was rated 14a in Canada. how can you rate this 14a? they drop how many F-bombs? 177? and 77 percent of the time, Ricky is the one dropping them? and what else do we have? Topless women. i never saw that in the TV series. and the series was 18a? what the hell is going on with Canada's rating system?

OK, enough with the rants. here's the scoop. Ricky and Julian are in jail. Ricky's mind is set on winning a big road hockey tournament against the prison guards, while Julian is keeping fit and lifting weights. while Ricky enjoys himself, Julian is talking to someone about pulling off "the big dirty" which is a big job where someone makes a lot of money. so Julian's mind turns to....change.

This movie, actually disappointed me. i mean, i laughed at everything in it, it was hilarious. it captured the foul mouth and the stupidity of Ricky, but there was several boob and sex scenes too many! there is rarely any of that in the show. plus, there was very little crime and wrong-doing. thats what made the trailer park boys so funny!

ah well, it was well worth renting to see.
