Synopsis: The Possum Lodge is taken to court by businessman Robert Stiles (Richard Fitzpatrick) whose limousine is damaged after falling into a sinkhole in front of the lodge.

The Possum Lodge is taken to court by businessman Robert Stiles (Richard Fitzpatrick) whose limousine is damaged after falling into a sinkhole in front of the lodge. The lodge members lose the case and must pay $10,000 in damages within ten days – or their beloved Lodge will become property of the town.

The head of the lodge, Red Green (Steve Smith) and his lodge brothers consider various fund-raising ideas. It is quickly agreed that selling road kill on the Internet or fire powered potato guns to children may be too complicated. Ultimately, it is Red Green’s nephew, Harold Green (Patrick McKenna) who suggests participating in an upcoming Duct Tape Contest being held in Minneapolis. There, a competition to create something made of at least 80% duct tape, will garner the third prize winner exactly $10,000. Naturally the boys band together and go for the bronze.

Even though the duct tape contest was his idea, Harold is again shut out from the lodge activities. But Harold is fed up with the second rate treatment he gets from his lodge brothers – especially from his uncle Red.

Their can't-miss entry, a giant goose made entirely of duct tape, is attached to the Possum Van, and Red and his nephew set out on their pilgrimage to save the lodge. However, their seemingly foolproof plan encounters some unexpected roadblocks. Mr. Stiles has enlisted the aid of the Possum Lake's local Sheriff (Darren Frost) and Deputy (Melissa DiMarco) to prevent the Lodge from coming up with the money to pay the fine.

What begins as an enthusiastic road trip is soon plagued with roadside obstacles that threaten to prevent the boys from ever making it to the Duct Tape competition.

Meanwhile, Harold begins to build up his confidence to confront those who have been treating him poorly. Harold's newfound self-assurance just may see him save the Possum Lodge AND get the girl. [More]

The saddest thing about Duct Tape Forever is the fact that it’s a sign of the direction commercial Canadian cinema is going: cheap comedies with name-brand appeal.

The series' good-natured, self-deprecating extended joke about male regression, handyman incompetence and Canadian humility are here in big-screen proportions, and it all works very well.

The movie offers more corniness than laughs, delivered with a visual-drabness that fails to justify its packaging as a theatrical film.

'Duct Tape Forever' has humor that kind of sticks to you.

Smith forgot to include any of the subtle, language-based comedy that marked his career as an author and stand-up comedian, so that all we're left with are obvious sight gags and laborious moments of slapstick carnage.

A pretty solid movie ... one that should amuse casual admirers (present company included) while delighting the rabid fan.

It's essentially a Red Green Show episode stretched to a 90-minute movie, but with about the same number of laughs.

Not even a roll of duct tape can patch up the problems.
