Supelice Dreadfully Boring

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Clarissa Mora The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Ray Cruddas You've arrived Dirty Jobs. As imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. NBC has announced that it has a new show in its fall lineup (probably starting in January though)and "America's Toughest Jobs" is set to go. Yep, Imitation. Everybody does it, some do it well, but I'm surprised it took this long. Mike Rowe and the boys have got nothing to worry about. Unless they copied the entire show and not the concept, it will be a badly scripted, heavily edited, poorly acted knock-off. Did I mention that Joe Rogan is the host. "This" just screams for Joe (unless he's to busy with the UFC hosting gig, but it can't pay "that" well) so we'll have to wait and see won't we. Jeez, the producers of Dirty Jobs, have been asking viewers for ideas for a while now. I wonder, which ones will these guys copy? Remember that even at a great price (cheap) a knock off is a knockoff whether a Gucci Bag, a Rolex watch or the Best Damn Show on TV.

xredgarnetx I have fallen mightily for this quirky show about jobs most of us do not do, never will do, and haven't the vaguest idea who does them or how they are done. Not all are dirty jobs, but even then, the show is mighty entertaining. One episode took the host and his crew to Australia or South Africa to swim with the great whites and test something or other by way of a repellent. The only dirty part of the job was chumming, but the whole episode was extremely educational and funny at the same time, and was the type of episode that should be shown in every school in America. DIRTY JOBS is DISCOVERY CHANNEL at its best. Even when this guy is rolling around in the worst kind of muck, we learn something. He did an episode in a salt mine that was astounding in both the drama of an incredibly hazardous and scary real-life job and the wonderful educational aspects. I assumed at first DISCOVERY CHANNEL dreamed up the show and then hired an actor. Wrong. The actor in question dreamed up the show and brought it to the channel. Perfection. A must see, along with the equally innovative and educational CASH CAB.

GreyFoxKS Dirty Jobs. The title rather says it all, but I'll expand just for the sake of possibly winning more possible viewers over. Host Mike Rowe narrates, hosts (obviously) and takes part in all manner of dirty jobs. Many of them are ones that perhaps we only randomly wonder about--like golf ball recovery on courses, roadkill collector, and even ostrich wrangler.Mike and his crew are amazing people--if they ever do get truly "grossed out" by some of the jobs they do/watch, they hardly ever show it. Heavens forbid this show is ever cancelled, for it is truly amazing and brilliant. And as odd as it might sound, only a few times have I ever been completely grossed out.Be sure to check this one out. It'll be worth your time.

thoughtfox Dirty Jobs is an interesting and entertaining show on The Discovery Channel that focuses on plain folks who toil at hard and often less-than-easy-or-clean manual labor. The host, Mike Rowe, is primarily responsible for the show's success for many reasons. First, Mike Rowe is funny and personable with people with whom he visits on the job; so, his humor is never at the expense of others. In fact, there is mutual jib-jabbing going back and forth between Mike and the various employees he visits. Mike has the ability to allow others to be relaxed and more themselves in front of the camera, which is another reason why this series is so successful and enjoyable to watch. The ordinary, everyday and hard-working people Dirty Jobs showcases are the real gems of the show. It gives a real sense of humanity and value to the people who might sometimes be disregarded by the majority of society. When was the last time you ever thought about the person who goes around your neighborhood in the wee hours of the morning to pick up your trash twice a week? Or what about the person who cleans animal feces at the fancy, multimillion dollar city zoo? Or the construction worker who works in 100+ degree heat for hours doing backbreaking work fixing a broken railroad tie? If you've ever wondered about the people who keep the dirty, but essential cogs of our society running smoothly, check out Dirty Jobs hosted by Mike Rowe, and experience a slice of life that few have ever witnessed, and even fewer dare to experience themselves.
