Review of Dirty

Dirty (2005)
2/10
Not even just another cop movie
26 April 2006
This film is shitty, I must say. The plot is like taken from GTA San Andreas. Characters are comic, or even comical. And the only word which rules this film is "motherf*cker". It was said - I don't know - maybe 2 times per minute, or so! I know that it has to be street-like talking, but - seriously - I don't believe everybody talks like that on the streets. And besides, even if they do... why the hell you have to make a movie about it!!! And this word appears in every possible regional form - Mexican, Afro American, Jamaican, Canadian! It looks like an educational material made to illustrate the complexity of accent phenomenon! I say - where are the Russians and Jakuza - they have been in GTA, I think :)...! The whole production is... or rather tries to be very similar to "Training Day", but when you do a copy, you should try to make it good. And here, no one cares if it is so - writers, director, and actors. Cliffton Collins and Cuba Gooding Jr. are horrible and it looks like they've switched with roles! The first one looks ridicules, and the other is completely untruthful. Only director of photography almost managed to catch the spirit of "Training Day" and that's why I gave this film full of puffed up ganstas (the funniest one is the guy from Black Eyed Peas - Jesus, what a performer :)) 2 stars.
