Kyla G. Super unrealistic but it keeps you on your feet. Hilarious, action-packed, and unexpected. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/27/25 Full Review Ryan C. Play Dirty is such a disappointment because it had so much potential with the star power in it, with the likes of Mark Walhberg and Lakeith Stanfield. Yet it’s a rehash of much better action thrillers that have a worthwhile plot. This film’s plot is so messy and script is so bad, that I did not care at all for any of the main players in it. The entertainment factor is also pretty low as I was constantly checking my watch to see how much longer I had left to get through it. Skip this one! Play Dirty gets a very low 1 1/2 stars out of 5.

Hilarious and unrealistic with great performances and action Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/22/25 Full Review Peter F Review: Play Dirty (2025) The latest collaboration between writer/director Shane Black and star Mark Wahlberg, Play Dirty, is a significant disappointment that sadly suggests Black’s output is on a progressively downward trend. The film manages to hold some promise in its first act, exhibiting flashes of the snappy dialogue and clever plotting that Black is known for. It’s an agreeable, if unremarkable, opening that sets up a decent premise. However, once that initial energy burns out, the film quickly devolves into a dull and monotonous drudge. The narrative loses focus, the pace drags severely, and the witty exchanges disappear, leaving behind a tedious experience that overstays its welcome by a considerable margin. The casting of Mark Wahlberg is perhaps the most critical misstep. Wahlberg simply lacks the necessary charisma and compelling screen presence to anchor this type of Black-esque caper. He delivers a flat, unengaging performance that leaves a gaping hole where a dynamic lead should be. Ultimately, the combination of a meandering script from a director who seems to be losing his edge and an uninspired performance from its star results in a film that is both dumb and dull. Skip Play Dirty; it's a frustrating watch that leaves you wondering what poor life choices lead you to waste your time watching this movie.
