Review of Dirty

Dirty (2005)
1/10
What an absolute waste of 94 minutes.
25 May 2006
Stupid, profane, vile CRAP. The ONLY people that would enjoy this movie are exactly the kind of people the movie portrays. Depicting the murder of young children & wheelchair bound elderly women, and portraying law enforcement as murderous gangster-thugs? That's entertainment? Perhaps all that could be forgiven, but what really makes this film unbearable to watch is the non-stop assault on the viewer with the most horrific language ever put on film. Never, and I quite literally mean NEVER - have I been subjected to such gratuitous profanity. At times, it seemed like a foul-mouthed SNL skit, where the intent was to actually mock the incessant barrage of filth coming from everyones mouth. I cannot stress enough how the language borders on comical mockery.

What a truly horrid, meaningless waste of a film. I am inclined to believe that perhaps Cuba Gooding Jr. was behind on his mortgage payments or has severe gambling debts, because taking a role such as this could only be attributed to a desperate man with heavy debt screaming "Show me the money!"

Fortunately, our video rental store has a "playback guarantee" - If you're not happy with your rental, they'll give you another in it's place. This will be only the second movie in my lifetime where I'll be taking them up on their offer.
