According to a high school's lore, the "Dirty Deeds" are a daunting list of dares almost no student has ever completed. To win the student body's respect and get noticed by his crush, Meg (Lacey Chabert), senior Zach (Milo Ventimiglia) is determined to finish the list in the allotted 24-hour time period. As the school's bullying jocks try to thwart him at every turn, Zach embarks on a wild journey, highlighted by beer swilling, grand theft auto and the snagging of an ex-homecoming queen's bra.

Caesar overindulges his fondness for period "style" with screen "wipes" and crazily angled shots that make it seem as if the camera was getting home late and unsteady from a drinking spree.

Not so much a coherent story as a string of clichs.

There isn't one decent performance to be had from a cast of amateur actors (adult actors included) that couldn't make dialing a phone look believable or funny.

This low-end and agressively unpleasant entry into the teen movie canon will vanish from your frontal lobes in about the same time it took to watch the thing.

After seeing this one is it possible to watch a movie set in a high school that doesn't involve a 'mean' Principle, hot girl and some kids wearing those strange sports jackets! (I'm English, we don't have those so I'm not sure what they're called) Poor acting, boring dialogue, stupid plot AND MADE ME THINK THAT EVERY WRITER IN HOLLYWOOD USES A COMMUNAL BRAIN CELL!

What I got to say about this movie "Dirty Deeds" is that "it's not funny and it's extremely boring" for most of the parts of the movie. The performances in this movie are horrendous. The directing by David Kendall is not good at all. The screenplay is pathetic. And the score is okay. "I'm raving that "Dirty Deeds" is one movie that you may forgettable after watching it. "It's NOT a must see!"

A interesting premise but has despicable characters a lame and sometimes very dark sense I humor that dosent fit well at all with the rest of the movie. Also the bully only gets proven wrong (not even a reaction).

Never heard of this teen film and was very surprised with the cast they had. Watchable but still the lower scale of teen sex coms
