During a layover in Albuquerque, work colleagues Les and Natalie discover more about each other than they ever thought possible. Anxious and irritable, Les is drawn back into the city by past experiences he can’t forget (even if he doesn't really remember the particulars of his previous drunken adventure). Natalie, refusing to leave his side, follows along as her own secrets are slowly revealed, leaving her feeling both vulnerable and unbound.

Dirty Weekend Audience Reviews

Micitype Pretty Good
AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
Curt Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.
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 !
edwoodca Only posting in reference to the user review saying it was trying to be cool like Breaking Bad for filming in Albuquerque. Your opinion on the rest of the film's elements are as valid as anyone's opinions. But you're clearly unaware that the New Mexico Film Office gives/gave out favorable tax credits [$$$] for productions to shoot in N.M. That's why they filmed there. Same goes for productions that shoot in New Orleans, Atlanta, etc.Hell, even California started taking applications a couple months ago for tax credits in order to lure filming back to the state.
