4.0 out of 5 stars Don't fall for the hate, November 11, 2006

By	Joshua M. James "Joshua James" (North Hollywood, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Dirty Love (Unrated Edition) (DVD)

Some of the other reviews are a bit harsh. This movie is not bad at all. Sure it's no Oscar winner, but it's a fun time. Jenny is very good at doing what she does best. She is a great physical comedienne. And to see her name in the writing credits should make you think twice before writing her off. Seriously what has anyone else written out there? The movie is wacky, but it's supposed to be. Just sit back, lower those freaking expectations and enjoy it a little.

4.0 out of 5 stars I can't believe I'm reviewing this movie, November 19, 2007

By	Cubro (New York, NY) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dirty Love (Unrated Edition) (DVD)

But this movie deserves a better review.

First the Bad:

Dirty Love is NOT everyone's cup of tea as many previous reviews indicate. There are scenes that are extraordinarily vivid in their bawdy humor. Absolutely not for kids. Many people will simply consider the humor to be profane or idiotic or both. This is also a low budget production. The premise is a pedestrian, Girl-Looking-For-Mister-Right, theme with a happy ending.

Now the Good:

If bawdy humor is your thing this movie has some hilarious moments. Many of them. In fact some of the writing is inspired in it's eye-opening depictions of the excitement, and misery, in the modern dating scene. Jenny McCarthy wrote the script, it reflects her sense of humor, and is thus a very personal, heartfelt work as well.

Despite the well worn subject matter McCarthy's script is very funny. Her depiction of the creepy guys she meets are wonderfully over the top. Her goofy, vain, air-heady, but ultimately loyal and caring friends are quite well played by Carmen Electra and Kam Heskin. Who knew Electra could act?

There are many tender moments that are truly sweet. Yet some of these scenes take dramatic turns into the gutter in ways that are truly jarring. I found these sudden changes as funny as they were intended to be but it takes a special sense of humor to appreciate the sweet moments AND laugh at the completely over the top way Jenny's period arrives (in vivid color) right in the middle of the supermarket.

The real revelation here though is McCarthy herself. Her performance is quite funny and she's a skilled actress with real ability in physical comedy. She's wearing her heart on her sleeve in this movie. You really can see how thoughtful and sensitive she is but also get a strong understanding of the crazy and, likely close to her own experiences, horrific world of finding the right guy in LA. Totally willing to subject herself to the most outrageous situations, she literally puts her body out there for all to see, sometimes in ways that will make you cringe, sometimes to admire her beauty inside and out. It's her film and it's a good one.

I really enjoyed it.

Editing this several months later...

OK 4 stars is just too high a rating all things considered. 3 is more appropriate but that still warrants a good rating for this movie with some unexpectedly gutsy humor.

1.0 out of 5 stars Just about as bad as I thought it would be, January 3, 2006

By	Mr Body Massage "Mr Body Massage" (Everywhere) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dirty Love (Unrated Edition) (DVD)

Well, what was I expecting? Pretty horrible movie. Jenny McCarthy is hot of course, but she is so "not hot" in a lot of the situations she puts herself in. Carmen Electra is incredibly annoying. I understand it's a comedy that relies on gross-out factor, but most of the situations are so overdone that it just makes you uncomfortable watching them.
