Dirty Pretty Things Audience Reviews

Raetsonwe Redundant and unnecessary.
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
The Couchpotatoes Dirty Pretty Things might not have a huge budget but it's an enjoyable movie to watch. It's of course fiction but you could easily look at this story as some refugees have to live it. Maybe not that extreme but that some get exploited is for sure. The fear of being sent back makes people do things they shouldn't have to do or want to do. Chiwetel Ejiofor and Audrey Tautou are the main characters and they both were really good. Why Audrey Tautou that is French has to play a Turkish refugee is a mystery to me, but she could easily pass as a Turk in this movie. The rest of the cast was also good, making this movie an easy watch. A good story, good actors and an interesting cinematography. Whar else is there to ask?
mariellangva This is a movie about two immigrants living in London. The two main characters is Owke, a man from Nigeria and a Turkish woman called Senay. Baisackly this Movie is about the two of them, trying to get a Passport, and they get involved in a bad environment. I guess this movie have a good manuscript, if you are a bit older, and have interest for these types of movies, but to be honest i did not like this movie at all. It was boring, and I had trouble understanding what they said because of their English, and therefore i did not really get much out of the movie. I don't think this is a movie for teenagers, since the movie it self was quite boring, and difficult to understand.
isakpbjerkeset the plot was easy to understand, it was boring. there were no plot twists that made your brain work. the plot was too simple. it gave a insight to the world of illegal immigration and the hardship they go through. the acting was good, it is a bit tricky with all the roles and their relationships. and they acted differently around each character. he was more gentle around some than others. but that is expected of the actors. especially when they had a big budget. the music, sound and cuts were good. but not exceptional. it is a good movie for educational purposes, however i would not spend my or anyone else's time on watching it.
Sivert Dirty pretty things is a film about two immigrants trying to make their way in England.The plot is in my opinion not very interesting as it draws out and never really gets you hooked on what is happening.And it sort of jumps from one scene to another leaving you really confused about what is happening.The acting is alright, but sometimes it occurs that the actors sort of fall out of their character and then it becomes really bad adding the fact that none of the character are particularly interesting.The music is OK, but nothing special and the sound design is not very good at all.
