The audience has never been so well connected, 20 September 2006
Author: solid_simon from United Kingdom

I have just had the privilege of watching the advanced screening of Dirty Sanchez The Movie. The sustained fear for the Dirty Sanchez boys' safety yet amazement of the pure insanity of these boys on all the peoples faces in the cinema says it all.

I am not a squeamish type. Like most people, I love watching a gruesome scary movie with the comfort of knowing it is not real in the back of my mind. However the stunts on this are not far from the horror in "Hostel", but without that comfort.

What I meant when I said "connected" is that you will find when watching this movie on the silver screen, everyone not only has the same reactions (covering their eyes with their hands), but also the freedom to scream, shout "oh my god" out loud and laugh like a hyena on happy gas without anyone caring. Because they are doing the same thing!

If I was to summarise this movie in one sentence. It would be: It is an amazing experience!

Thank you for reading.

A Brainbashing, Stomach Churning, and Entertaining Film For All That Can Manage It., 24 September 2006
8/10
Author: Ross Dixon from United Kingdom

This film does for the Dirty Sanchez TV series what Jackass: The Movie and it's newly released sequel did for the Jackass TV Series. It pushes the boundaries of what is viewable past the Television audience and into a movie that can be a lot more extreme. Dirty Sanchez: The Movie is one of the best examples of this. One of the reasons movies like this get through to it's correct audience is that everything you see in this film is real. There's no CGI or fake blood. This film definitely shocks an audience but keeps them wrapped up in it. They shoved in all the disgusting stuff they could into this film (except the infamous rabbit scene).

It's a very shocking film to watch, and I am not a person who is easily shocked by anything. I may not be offended by any of it but some of the stuff in this film is a bit gut wrenching. So you need to understand that this is not for the faint of heart. This movie is very graphic and for those of you who cringe at the sight of blood this movie is a bad dream for you. For any of you who are offended by nudity, don't watch it, there's a lot of it. I do not recommend seeing this with your parents, or your little kids and not by any stretch of the imagination a weak stomached best friend. This movie is a dive into the world of insanity, pain and violence. But hell, if you're a Sanchez fan like me, you'll love every minute of it.

Do you have the stomach to see Dirty Sanchez: The Movie? 8/10 Very Good!

TV show writ large, 3 October 2006
9/10
Author: Matt Reedy from UK

Disgraceful. Yet somehow compelling. The very fact that it is not you on screen hurling yourself over, into and through things that were not designed for such a purpose makes you appreciate those that are doing so even more.

Anyone who has seen the TV series should know what to expect. Like Jackass before them however, they have been allowed to go even further, and at times you wonder if they have not perhaps gone too far, never more so than during Pritchard's quest to win back his honour. Of course, a certain part of you will always be yelling for these fools to hurt themselves in ever more ingenious ways, and it is this part that will make you want to queue again.

Honestly, I expected something far worse., 21 May 2008
6/10
Author: tonymurphylee from USA

From reading reviews and word-of-mouth, I heard that this was one of the most disgusting films ever made. Hell, the DVD comes with a free vomit bag! Upon watching this, there were a couple parts that were rather sick. The most infamous scene in the film in which they drink discarded fat was quite nerve racking and the scene in which one of the guys slices off the tip of their finger. Aside from that, the stunts and shocking behavior they pull is all stuff I've seen on other sketch comedy shows and in film. The gags range from pulling pranks on each other while they are sleeping, tricking each other into doing outrageous stuff for nothing, and nearly mutilating each other. Sure, they engage in homo-erotic behavior, but so does JACKASS! Their reactions to the pranks are so over-the-top and goofy that the humor is a little more accessible than usual. I will say that in one scene they murder an animal, but they end up feeling really terrible about it instead of taking sadistic glee in the act, which I'm thankful for. So overall, this really isn't that bad in my opinion.

So does this offer anything that JACKASS doesn't? Well, these British guys seem to be a lot more comfortable with their friendship and each other's sexuality that a lot of people on American television, which may seem strange to some audiences. The guys in this film seem to be more aware that the stuff they do is completely stupid and won't benefit them in any way. the film tries for more of a plot than JACKASS, which is interesting. There's some semi-shocking stuff here, but nothing in it really competes with PINK FLAMINGOS in terms of sheer depravity. I guess I was expecting something more along the lines of that. Instead I watched an average screwball documentary in which guys mess around with each other's penises. If you liked JACKASS, this is pretty much in the same league. Go figure.

Gross Disgusting Often Funny, 30 December 2007
6/10
Author: dbborroughs from Glen Cove, New York

The Brits have a go at Jackass style humor and self inflicted wounds.The follow up to an MTV Europe show this film is framed by the foursome of "stars" dying and being told by Satan they must return to earth and commit the seven deadly sins. The group is then off on an around the world trip where they do some real terrible things to themselves and each other.

Going farther than Jackass seemed to this is a lower brow (if thats possible) version of the routine. Weird animals are eaten, liposuction performed and things are inserted and tattooed in places that are unmentionable. Much of it is funny in a cruel sort of way while at the same time its squirm inducing. Did I like it? I'm not sure. I did laugh, but I don't know if I need to see it again, well most of it again. Its an amusing rental if you like this sort of thing(Including full frontal male nudity).

Pretty nasty. (Spoilers!!!!), 26 September 2006
5/10
Author: tastethevapour from United Kingdom

*** This review may contain spoilers ***

I've never been a big fan of the TV show Dirty Sanchez and didn't really have much interest in seeing this movie. I always just thought it was a Jackass rip off with less originality in the stunts and just aiming for sheer brutality.

Well I got wound into going to see the movie and for the most part I enjoyed it and laughed at most of the stunts that I saw like the paintball gun and the Tai kick boxing scenes. However, there were some parts that were just too nasty. Now I'm not squeamish at all and I love some of the most violent films known to man, but the finger cutting scene was just too much. This just proves my point about the show in the first place that these guys will just do anything to upstage Jackass or the other shows of this nature. I don't really find a guy chopping his own finger off amusing or entertaining.

If you like the show then you will like this movie, but avoid if your the sensitive type.

Valley boys show Welsh draggin' comedy cinema further down into the gutter, hilariously., 13 November 2009
8/10
Author: tyler-and-jack from Edinburgh.

Another movie that's ridiculously easy to review, this is the big-screen outing for the Dirty Sanchez boys - the Welsh equivalent of Jackass to use the oft-mentioned shorthand description.

Despite a rather annoying and daft wraparound tale involving the boys ending up in Hell with only one way out (involving all 7 of the 7 deadly sins), these lads manage to impress audiences almost as much as their U.S. counterparts.

Once again, in a similar way to the Jackass movie, we get bombarded with the gross and the grossly funny while also getting to know the individuals involved and to quickly learn the group dynamic that makes each skit/personal moment of revenge all the more amusing and involving.

It's safe to say that the easily offended should stay well away from this one. I'm not the hardest person to make queasy and even I was worried about some activity in my digestive system while I watched some of the more extreme moments featured in this movie. As I said about the Jackass movie, it's not big or clever but it is damned funny and all done with an infectious, childish glee that makes it hard to resist IF you can go along with the boys and their antics.

See this if you like: "Dirty Sanchez", "Jackass", Jackass: The Movie.

At least better than Jack ass 2, 7 July 2009
9/10
Author: kdavidbushnell from United States

The skits are great, so much better than jackass 2, maybe even the original. Thoroughly funny from beginning to end. They don't think up extremely dull skits like Jack ass 2, they are simple yet hilarious. The personalities of each are refreshing compared to Jackass as well. They are not quite as weird and gloating as Jackass personalities. None are stupid like Preston and Bam. These four get it done in a good old fashion sense of humor. A group that performs insane stunts at local and international gigs finally deserved their own goofy film. It is consistently funny. The Paintball part is one of the funnies skits I've ever seen. They are truly nuts with funny personalities to match. I haven't watched it in a while which means I'll watch it again sometime soon. It's worth reviewing so at least rent it if you like Jackass type humor. The show they had on MTV 2 was just as funny as the movie too.

if you live in a trailer park ...., 17 April 2009
1/10
Author: emphedokles from Germany

If you live in a trailer park and you love to see every two minutes a mans dick then its the perfect movie for you. Also you can see the beautiful wonder of ugly tattooed man barfing every 10 minutes. Additonal you can see people eating human flesh and bugs, sexual activities with transvestites and a lot of real live torture. To calculate that all together. If you are 15 years old, drunken, gay and mentally disabled then you will love that movie.

Except of that it is of course the worst acting ever. You only will believe in the greate friendship of the actors if you never had friends and you think that American wrestling is real. This is not a horrible peace of a movie. It is not a movie. Its just a few guys which are hired to give everyone who lives in a trailer park, thinking that chicken wings is really good food and owning a bmw 3 makes people importand, the feeling that it could be worse then his own live. I wonder that the people who rated that movie more then 1 could really afford an internet connection.

Disappointed watered down film based on the British TV series., 1 January 2008
6/10
Author: Paul Andrews (poolandrews@hotmail.com) from UK

*** This review may contain spoilers ***

Dirty Sanchez: The Movie starts as the Welsh lads Pritchard, Dainton, Locke & Joyce manage to kill themselves in one of their stunts. In hell they are told by Satan (Keith Richards) that they can have their lives back if they enact the seven deadly sins in their own unique way...

Directed by Jim Hickey this was based on the British TV series Dirty Sanchez (2002) which is a sexual term so as such in America the show is called Team Sanchez! This is basically a film based on a TV series which itself was based on the Jackass (2000) TV series which was also made into a spin-off feature length film called Jackass: The Movie (2002). I have to admit that I find all these dangerous stunt type show's very funny & both Jackass & Dirty Sanchez are fine examples of this unique genre, unfortunately I was disappointed by Dirty Sanchez: The Movie as it's nowhere near as extreme as I had hoped for. Most of what happens in this is more of the cruel practical joke variety like shaving your sleeping mates hair off, the mildly distasteful like kissing transsexuals & eating cockroaches in Thailand to making yourself look silly like dressing up in a purple jumpsuit & singing karaoke in a Japanese street. The really extreme stuff just isn't here, the part when the guy is lit up by paint-balls would really hurt but leave nothing more than minor scratches & bruising (I know from personal experience) & the part when that guy is supposed to have his finger cut off, why did they even bother to include this scene when it's clear he didn't go through with it. I'd say the most extreme part of Dirty Sanchez: The Movie is the fish hook through the guy's foreskin mainly because us guy's know how sensitive our genitals & testicles are so anything that potentially would hurt down there makes our eyes water more than other areas of our anatomy. The bit when that guy has a nail hammered through the web of skin between his finger & thumb might also make you feel a bit queasy. I was very disappointed & a lot of it is just these four guy's swearing at each other & behaving like rowdy tourists rather than the extreme pain merchants they are on their series.

Besides being pretty tame for this type of thing it's a bit of a chore to sit through, the constant mind numbingly quick editing is awful & just irritated me no end. Call me a traditionalist or old fashioned but I really do like to be able to see whats happening on screen when I watch a film. The Satan wraparound segments also make the film feel very scripted & not natural like these sorts of things should be. There isn't much blood here although there's a fair few male cock's on show.

Dirty Sanchez: The Movie has a few bright moments, some of the banter between the boy's is funny & one or two of the stunts are suitably extreme but for the majority of it this is far too tame & that music video style editing really annoys. A lot.
