Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

dgeo-34726 I've never heard the term "Dirty Weekend" and I doubt this movie will spur it into pop culture. The acting is fine, I don't think the characters are supposed to be that smooth together. They are work people who aren't used to spending personal time together. Matthew Broderick is funny at parts if you have a dry sense of humor. I wouldn't suggest you watch this movie.

SnoopyStyle Workmates Les Moore (Matthew Broderick) and Natalie Hamilton (Alice Eve) are flying from L.A. to Dallas when they are forced to land in Albuquerque. He's grumpy and heads into town. She reluctantly joins him.This is a small indie. The two actors don't have much to play with. They're not even a couple and they don't know much about each other. They are essentially both playing the deadpan straight man. There is nothing truly holding them together. It needs to be much more a quirky adventure. It's as interesting as watching me walk around downtown and I'm not that interesting. The first act is flatly dull with low level quirky turns that go nowhere. She reveals something about her lesbian relationship and he can't let go.of a past sexual experience. Their secrets aren't as interesting as hoped for. It might be groundbreaking twenty years ago. Writer/director Neil LaBute's best work may be that long ago. It's a lot of talk with scarce humor. This is a layover hoping for a destination.

zvonkodimitrioski I admit, "slow" films are the kind I like. You can recognize real persons and situations and believe them.The script is not a masterpiece, but deals fine with our unconscious or prohibited desires. Craftsmanship is on Hollywood level - excellent!Of course, Matthew Broderick is the "backbone" of the film and, I think, plays the role with perfection. The person everyone of us can find in the neighborhood. I believe him!Alice Eve is a positive surprise! Fine support with no unnecessary tries to dominate. And, of course, beautiful as always!All in all, film worth seeing !

in1984 7.1 of 10. What may be best described as Matthew Broderick as the middle-aged version of one of the characters in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" once again exploring the suppressed desires of a well-behaved, obedient member of America's corporate, Christian society. He also has a plan for this time off, but it doesn't go quite the way he intends.Instead of exploring high school or middle-aged males relationships, it looks at more of a seeming fantasy situation between Broderick's character and his young, hot, UK/Aussie accented co-worker as their flight gets seemingly interrupted and the connection delayed.Alice Eve puts in a great supporting performance and Broderick fits his ordinary organization-man role well. What the film lacks is an original soundtrack/score and more originality in views and dealing with issues along with the relatively safe happy ending. Nonetheless, definitely worth a watch, whether on a layover or not.
