Totally Legalize It!

Warning: Spoilers
The Trailer Park Boys: Don't Legalize It (2014): Dir: Mike Clattenburg / Cast: Rob Wells, John Paul Tremblay, Mike Smith, John Dunsworth, Patrick Roach: Third in the popular comedies based on the Canadian TV program about three middle age males who live in a run down trailer park and sell marijuana for cash. This time out Ricky feels threatened when Canadian government holds a conference that could legalize marijuana and Ricky plans to trek to Ottawa because this could threaten his marijuana business he operates in his basement. Julian is involved in a hair brain scheme where he sells clean urine to those who need it for drug tests and he needs to transport a bunch of test tube urine samples to Montreal. Finally Bubbles receives notification that the parents he never knew had passed away and left him their home / bus in the middle of nowhere. John Dunsworth steals every scene he is in as Mr. Lahey who is out to frame Ricky for possession of cocaine but becomes hooked on the drug himself. He and shirtless Randy, played with disgusting perfection by Patrick Roach, follow the trio on their road trip where they further spiral down the delusional crash. Rob Wells, John Paul Tremblay and Mike Smith embody these roles to perfection and they're relatable despite antics and lifestyles that are hardly complimentary. The legalization of marijuana is something many would approve but Ricky presents arguments that can invade his methods of making a living. Fans of the show will enjoy this film otherwise it hardly advances or innovates past expectations. Score: 8 / 10
