Reviews
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
eatcrowepls This is a very low budget independent movie with the sole purpose of piggybacking off of the Rob Ford crack scandal and making fun of him. It was probably rushed into production at the time and you can tell based on the incredibly weak script and poor production values. It's not worth watching unless you're really into the whole Rob Ford drama, I am and still wasn't that interested in this. It's kind of boring and very weak. The guy playing Ford is decent but the rest of the actors are very weak.
xeta prime No known Actors (for me anyways). Great plot. Great writing. Good acting. Never know what's going to happen. Fresh characters. Honestly, what a joy to watch this movie. Found it by accident. And know what? I'm changing from an initial 9 to a 10. Why? It was so refreshing watching this movie. I really enjoyed it. Filth City is a throw-back crime drama with bits of genius humor throughout. There's a moment when you are almost sympathizing with the bad guy; a fight, some drinks, a truck and I won't say more. Give it a chance, deservedly so. You don't see many original well written surprise your pants off movies these days. Enjoyed it more than Star Wars! There, I said it. Happy Holidays!
slouchpotato As soon as I read the description for this movie I realized it was about Canadian mayor of Toronto Rob Ford.This poor man was ridiculed on talk shows, in newspapers and now a movie. I am sure his family has suffered extensive humiliation on all levels. Now this! The man is dead...please allow him and his family some peace.Obviously, the people involved with the creation of this so called movie do not have a creative bone in their body if this is all they could come up with. Shameful, just Shameful.
sezme Filth City is an excellent low budget satirical farce, using Toronto's Rob Ford years as a jumping off point and ending with an impressive body count. It may not be everyone's cup of tea (or bowl of crack), but I found it entertaining from start to finish with a well-written script, credible acting, and engaging characters. Almost all of the characters are deeply flawed, but at the same time, hardly any of them come off as irredeemable villains, and that's a tribute to the writing. There's a bit of pathos here and there, and a high degree of gore, but mainly, the filmmakers are delivering up comedy. Standout comic performances include Pat Thornton as Mayor Hogg and Chris Locke as a bumbling cop. But really, there are laughs to be had in almost every scene. The film doesn't take itself too seriously, and as long as you don't either, and you're willing to laugh at all the absurdity, I highly recommend it.
