Dirty Work (1998)

Life's not so great for Mitch Weaver (Macdonald). He's just lost his girlfriend, his job and now his best friend's dad (Warden) needs a new heart! But the only way to arrange the transplant is to cut a deal with a surgeon (Chase) with a gambling problem in other words, find $50,000 or the old man dies! Out of work and out of options, all Mitch and his friend have to rely on is their one natural talent, revenge! Whether planting phony hookers in cars or stinking up houses with rotting fish, these "Revenge Specialists for Hire" are sick, dirty and good! But when a rich client refuses to pay up after a job well done, they make him realize exactly who he's messing with after all, getting even is their business!

Bad movie!

I purchased this movie and was so disappointed. It had a couple of funny spots in the beginning and went down hill from there. Found nothing funny about it. We threw the movie away, wasn't even worth sharing! December 30, 2008

Sort of a hidden treasure.

All I can say is that this movie is hilarious, especially for Norm Macdonald fans. If you don't know much about him, try looking him up on youtube for some of his Conan O'Brien appearances, and that should give you a good idea of what to expect. December 26, 2008

Best. Comedy. Ever.

I highly recommend this movie to fans of Norm's work on SNL, the first 8 seasons of The Simpsons, Mr. Show, etc... I've watched this movie dozens of times over the past 10 years and the comedy is still fresh. BUY IT ALREADY!! November 30, 2008

Great Picture Quality

Since every other review here is discussing the film, you obviously get the plot. However what is not mentioned is how good this film looks in HD Upscaling. It has bright colours and clothing (not unlike the latter Kevin Smith films) that look really sharp and has really nice clarity for a low budget comedy. So if you are looking for a decent comedy to show off your new HD home theatre system and truly want to see how good upscaling can look then I recommend this.

I watched Forrest Gump upscaled the next day and Dirty Work actually looked better in my opinion. Its not a better movie by any stretch of the imagination but it is a superior DVD transfer. August 24, 2008

I love this movie so much.

as for statistics I am 23 years old and female. I think this movie is hands down one of the funniest movies ever. Almost everyday I think of jokes or references in this movie. It is really like I have my own inside jokes with the creators because I will laugh to myself so frequently about it. If you haven't seen this it is worth just buying. You won't regret it I can promise you that. Amazon has a good price on this movie too!!!!!!!!! August 16, 2008
