Would it kill the supermodels and actresses of the world to lay off the Entourage dudes for even a minute? They’re only human, and even that’s a stretch. That also seems to be a distressing conundrum for Vinnie’s manager E (Kevin Connolly) as well. Vinnie isn’t the only member of the squad who just can’t seem to keep beautiful women from having sex with him. Ratajkowski rose to fame as the notorious “video girl” in Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines.” She proved she could act with Gone Girl, then proved she could also not act with her work here. If anything, he has too many beautiful women around constantly begging him to put his penis inside them, including Emily Ratajkowski. We learn that movie star Vinnie Chase (Adrien Grenier) and his new wife split up on their honeymoon but don’t worry! Nothing bad ever really happens to Vinnie, so he still got laid (high five!) and there are all these supermodels around who totally want to bang him. That seems fitting, since what follows is a masturbatory exercise in self-mythologizing, fan service and taking a wholly unmerited, film-length victory lap. It’s another to endlessly reward one-dimensional characters with all of heaven’s wonders simply for having a penis, being white and hanging around with an improbably, implausibly successful actor.Īs the prophecy foretold, The Entourage movie's first line of dialogue is Johnny Drama (Kevin Dillon) talking about how he might have to jerk it before even getting to his brother’s floating pleasure palace because he’s so horny. It’s one thing to not punish characters with STDs and drug addictions for sleeping around or getting high. I eventually realized that I did not like any of the show's characters and that I could not be less invested in its dizzy, fizzy, incredibly plastic and artificial world. ![]() And the more awesome the show insisted everything was, the more obnoxious it became. But then, at a certain point, the show stopped being about how show-biz is ridiculous yet awesome and just became about how everything was awesome. That was my experience shooting a poorly rated, mildly disreputable movie review panel show in L.A in 20. I liked that Entourage initially depicted life in Hollywood as ridiculous but also kind of awesome. I enjoyed it for what it was, something so flimsy and insubstantial that it almost took more energy to not watch it than to keep up. No, this was a breezy exercise in male lifestyle porn about a couple of ordinary guys enjoying an extraordinary life in the stoned paradise of Southern California. This was not one of those Hollywood morality tales where someone smokes their first doobie and is sucking off businessmen for crack money in a matter of hours. What I initially responded to in Entourage was its lightness of touch and its refusal to judge or punish its characters. ![]() ![]() I have a weakness for movies and television shows about show-business.
