Not for everyone. But absolutely hilarious. Some of the funniest scenes ever. Chris Farley is classic and the film works because no one was trying to win an Oscar here, they just wanted us to laugh at the jokes about dead... Full review

This movie is hilarious. Norm MacDonald and Artie Lang (from the Howard Stern show) give a great performance in this crazy romp about 2 guys who start a revenge for hire business. Some guest appearances by Chris Farley and Chevy Chase... Full review

I thought for sure I would enjoy this. I like low brow humor on occasion, but this was pathetic. And not very funny. Artie better stick to the Stern show, becuase as an actor, he sucks. I wouldn't waste my time... Full review

Very involved, but barely funny movie and TV parodies make up the bulk of the show, clocking in at three to four times the length of the rest of the sketches.
This may have been a mistake, since people tune in to see these guests, but the regular cast was talented enough to hold their own.

Dirty Work" centers on a revenge-for-hire business in which everyone, even the kindly grandmother of the pert love interest, is fair game for retribution or humiliation.
Dirty Work" clocks in at a flyweight 81 minutes, leaving the audience to consider the mountains of worse stuff left in the editing bay's trash can, and is a tone-deaf, scattershot and dispiritingly cheesy affair with more groans than laughs.

Yes, and the great Dini Petty," says Macdonald, Dirty Work's star and co-writer.
If living well is the best revenge, Macdonald may laugh last.
We're proud to have him in the movie.
