Dirty Weekend: Directed by Neil LaBute. With Matthew Broderick, Alice Eve, Phil Burke, Gia Crovatin. Colleagues Les and Natalie are delayed in the Albuquerque airport. Restless, irritated, and unable to stand the service workers he meets at every turn, Les heads downtown. Natalie refuses to leave his side and discovers that his supposedly aimless wandering has more of a point than he is willing to admit. Natalie conceals secrets of her own, though neither can keep them quiet for long. A rapport grows between this unlikely pair, and soon they search out a spark of excitement in this most unlikely of locales.

“I kept waiting for this movie to come together and make any kind of point, but sadly it never did. On top of which, Matthew Broderick is just plain awful and torture to watch.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAhhh, Matthew, youu0026#39;ve gone from WarGames, Ferris, Biloxi, and even Election, to this? You used to be cool denim and now your dusty polyester. Time to hang it up dude. Your incessant whining made me nauseous and just killed the credibility of the film. In real life nobody would last two seconds listening to you.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOther than being sickened by Broderick, the movie was pointless and I think they were trying to be cool in a Breaking Bad sort of way shooting in Albuquerque but it never really came off that way.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOne bright spot was Alice Eve. I can watch her all day. Sheu0026#39;s an absolutely captivating actress and should be getting closer to a breakout film than a resume buster like this one.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIn the end, watching this movie was a dreadful waste of time.”
