Dirty 30

I have never seen any of the people in this movie before - and that's OK. I liked the actresses OK. But none of this movie was even the slightest bit believable. It opens with an over the top bad date to set the stage - kind of funny but really? Nothing in the movie is original - everything has been done before. Sad girl about turning 30, girl they hate from high school, cool guy from high school is old and fat now, and the boy she now likes is misunderstood when he leaves the party with the girl from high school they all hate - but really he is a good guy because he was just driving a drunk girl home and he had no interest in her. I didn't laugh that much and found it rather boring.

And Kate - the main girl - while I could see me liking her in other things I don't think she is a strong enough actress to carry a movie as the lead.

If you are in the mood for a "stupid" funny movie - then this is for you.

Anyone who Youtube will know all 3 of the main actors: Hannah Hart; Grace Helbig and Mamrie Hart. They got together for this movie and I believe they hit the cinema nail right on it's head. The film is colourful, well paced, well acted for what it is, nicely written with great dialogue, witty and charming and a little emotional in parts. There's plenty of cuteness to keep people interested but not enough to turn it smulchy. It's about as believable as any film of this genre and very formulaic, but that doesn't stop it rising to the heap of all the other unbelievable and formulaic movies. The only time I write reviews is if a film touched me or moved me in some way, be that positively or negatively, and this one was definitely a feel good, positive surprise. I've given it the highest rating I ever give a film and that's because tonight that's exactly what it deserved.

Well written and agreeable comedy in the familar style following the plight of a woman re-assessing her life and trying to deal with her lack of adult points by acting like a child.

Except that it's much better characterized than most of the rest, presenting a poignant and revitalizing depiction of a person looking within themself and rediscovering their place in the universe but it's never trite or sickly.

A good bit of fun that is never hateable.

Writer and film star Mamrie Hart may have got her wish to "star" in her own film about a girl named Kate Fields who works as a dental hygenist and is turning 30 but she is still single and relies on her two besties for her social life.

This is supposed to be one of those "loser turns winner" camp/comedy/romance films where the high school loser(s) get together for a wild reunion at a rich and absent house owners mansion and for Kate Fields 30th birthday party. The scenario of a girl trying to find true love but keeps getting into bad relationships such as Kate's blind date with a loser guy named Raven who still lives with his parents, has been done a million times before, and now I can honestly say this is the one millionth PLUS ONE failure.

I did not laugh once. Writing and acting were below par. It reminded me of a film that was made in less than seven (7) days and for less than ten (10) grand.

10 minus 7 equals a 3 out of 10 rating.

Straight off the bat, Dirty 30 is an above average film that will at the very least keep you slightly entertained for an hour and a half. It's pure, harmless fun with solid performances from the very likable Mamrie Hart, Hannah Hart and Grace Helbig (the YouTube Holy Trinity), who play three best friends. I would have liked to see more character development for Hannah Hart's character (Charlie) as I thought she was the most interesting of the 3. Does this film bring anything new to the table? No, not really. Think of this as the mild-mannered lovechild of Project X and Bridesmaids. It's a predictable film that played it really safe but is still a charming little film nonetheless.The weakest aspect of this film is a forced high-school romance between two incredibly forgettable characters that the film could have completely done without. Each time these two characters were on screen, the energy and pace of the film was slowed down and all I wanted to do was get back to the fun bits.

Overall, I think big YouTube fans will enjoy this one the most as there are a bunch of awesome cameos to look forward to.
