The Irish comedy The Hardy Bucks Movie is out not to buy on DVD and Blu-ray in the UK courtesy of Universal, and we’ve teamed up with them to give away two copies on Blu-ray!
‘The Hardy Bucks’ are a group of bored slackers from the sleepy Irish hamlet of Castletown with not much going on and dreams of making it big. To fill their time, for ‘a bit of craic’, they created a mockumentary about their lives which they broadcast on YouTube. It was subsequently entered into and won first prize in Irish broadcaster RTÉ’s ‘Storyland’ competition and was followed-up with two critically acclaimed television series and a Christmas Special. Now ‘The Hardy Bucks Movie’, which sees the lads finally leave Castletown and head out on a wild road trip across Europe, gets its full UK home entertainment release through Universal Pictures, on DVD and Blu-ray from 18 November 2013.
Eddie Durkan, the self-proclaimed leader of the ‘Bucks’ is dreading spending another summer bored out of his skull. Ireland has qualified for the Euros in Poland, but with no money and apathetic mates, the task falls to Eddie to get them out of Castletown and onto the road in search of football and the craic. A small inheritance and an old van provide an escape plan, but the trip takes a turn for the worse after an unscheduled stop-off in Amsterdam. To pay off a huge strip club bar bill, two of the boys are forced into becoming drug mules. Suddenly it’s not just about getting to Poland to watch football; they need to get there alive, with the ‘package’, without getting arrested and without being molested by baboons. With mounting pressure from Dutch and Polish gangsters, the last thing Eddie needs is to bump into his arch nemesis ‘The Viper’ along the way…
