Dirty Work

The picture quality is not as great as what we have become accustomed to in modern times, but it is still very watchable for its age. The movie itself was akin to numerous reviews that I had read about it: “slapstick comedy” at its finest. The fact that Chris Farley has several cameos is just an added bonus. For anyone looking for a pure 90’s comedy, you won’t be disappointed.

Just an excellent movie. Just a powerhouse of comedians/actors. Best chevy chase role I've seen. Just hilarious. You got Farley in there too, just excellent. I love the parts where they zoom in on the ex travis cole employee as he tells a deep story and then abruptly broken up, that guy is so funny.

This movie is obviously meant for the 16 - 40 year old white male demographic, and anyone outside of that group may not care for it because, just like "Darma & Greg" is tailored to lame people with no sense of humor, "Dirty Work" is tailored to people who appreciate amazing comedy -- i.e., me.I can honestly say that this is my favorite comedy of all time. It's best watched after a couple of beers, and there are only a few fleeting moments when the movie is not entirely on fire. Norm MacDonald's comedic genius is fully realized in "Dirty Work," without the corporate filters of Saturday Night Live or "The Norm Show" to mute parts of his act that would otherwise be solid gold. If you have seen "Screwed" or any other movie with Norm in it, completely forget what you saw, because this movie is pure, concentrated, unedited Norm where those movies were obviously edited and "noted up" by executives trying to turn a profit.Not only does Norm deliver a flawless performance, but Chris Farley, Chevy Chase, Artie Lange, Jack Warden and many others (including cameos by Gary Coleman and Adam Sandler) all hold their own and win over each and every scene in which they appear -- this isn't the typical case where a comedy movie tries to work in a bunch of celebrity cameos "just because" and all their performances are sad and lame. Every comedian listed above, especially Farley, is at the very pinnacle of their game in this movie.Don't hesitate--do yourself a huge favor and pick up this all-time best comedy.

Great copy of a classic, hilarious movie!

I kind of tuned out of "SNL" after years of mediocrity so I missed Norm MacDonald's time on it. I do remember the short lived "Norm Show" and I liked it a lot. I also dug Norm's guest appearance as Chubby Junior on "My Name Is Earl" where he played the son of Burt Reynolds' strip club owner. Though far from uninspired "Dirty Work" isn't what I would call classic comedy but it get's by on the good vibes that Norm emits. Norm's style of humor I would characterize as droll though some would call it smarmy. Regardless, the success or failure of the film falls on your reaction to Norm and he's alright by me. Great supporting cast led by Artie Lange as Norm's best bud, Jack Warden as Lange's father, Chevy Chase as a gambling addicted surgeon, and the late Chris Farley in an extended cameo as a guy who gets part of his nose bit off by a Vietnamese hooker. I laughed sporadically throughout but not consistently but you could do a whole lot worse.

You can tell right off the bat that this is a 90s comedy, but that is not a bad thing! Norm MacDonald, Artie Lange, and Traylor Howard star in this tragically overlooked movie directed by Bob Saget about two guys trying to raise money for a sick man using the one talent they have: getting revenge.I had bought this because it’s Norm MacDonald, and about 10 minutes in I realized I had seen it before! I doubt this film will ever be nominated for an AFI Top 100 list, but it is a good, entertaining movie with silly but not over-the-top comedy, no gory violence, a great pair of comedians who work well together, and a happy ending. At the end of the day, what more do you really need?

This movie is exactly the way every movie in the comedy genre should be. Dirty Work has enough of a plot to hold your interest, but the focus is on the actual comedy. The funny parts of the movie are truly funny, unlike most newer comedies. But don't be misled by the phrase "funny PARTS" every scene has some kind of joke in them, even the most serious parts of the movie will still keep you laughing!The actual plot is also creative, which is something lacking in most comedies today, which all rip each other off. The main characters have to raise 50 grand in order to get their father on top of the list to get a heart transplant. After a few failed attempts at traditional work, they get the idea to open their own "Revenge for Hire" business. From there the movie is just laugh after laugh after laugh (and it is during that too).Not only do you see Norm MacDonald and Chris Farley in this movie, but as an added bonus when watching this movie, you get cameo appearences from tons of other Saturday Night Live alumnus. Not to mention the attractive Traylor Howard (from ABC's "Two Guys and A Girl, her being the girl) who plays as Norm's female interest in the movie.Overall, this movie is star-packed, original, and hilarious, and aren't those the qualities that make a truly good comedy?

The item was in Great Condition! Thank You!

Great movie

Great movie, ahead of it’s time. Unfortunate norm left us. One of his best movies.

If you’re a fan of Norm McDonald, then this is an absolute must! One of the greatest stand-up comedians of all time, and is hilarious in this flick as well

One of my favorite comedies from the 90s which starred some great comedic talent, like the late great legend Norm MacDonald. So many great scenes and great lines from this movie. Norm MacDonald your comedic genius will be missed but will not be forgotten thanks to Dirty Work!
