A wild ride juiced with enough energy and excitement for at least three films.
Top CriticFun, watchable, enjoyable, forgettable.
Though perhaps a bit too overstuffed for such familiar fare, Dirty Deeds succeeds through sheer force of quirk and a seemingly endless supply of hyper-kinetic energy.
Nothing special but still good fun.
...[the film] works, due mostly to the tongue-in-cheek attitude of the screenplay.
In this film, Aussie David Caesar channels the not-quite-dead career of Guy Ritchie.
Writer/director David Caesar ladles on the local flavour with a hugely enjoyable film about changing times, clashing cultures and the pleasures of a well-made pizza.
