The Escort

French dub please

Mitch Cooper (Michael Doneger) chases anonymous sex online in L.A. He's at a hotel bar waiting for another date when Natalie (Lyndsy Fonseca) shows up. She's actually a high price escort working the bar. The mix up does not go well. Mitch gets fired as a reporter. He struggles to find another job and decides to write about the escort world. He goes back to the bar to find Natalie as his subject. This is a lower budget indie. The guy is lackluster. Fonseca is really the only reason that I started watching this. This tries to be a little humorous with limited success. She has a bit of sass. There are references to Pretty Woman but this is not even in the ballpark. The couple has no chemistry. It's not particularly sexy or fun or dark or poignant or anything. Fonseca gets it part of the way but it doesn't really get there.

Poor writing, poor directing, poor acting, poor story, poor characters, poor plot, poor poor poor

The movie stays away from the damsel in distress theme and the female lead is a strong independent woman whose motives, feelings and thoughts are explored throughout the movie. It's awful that it needs to be mentioned, but that's one of the few movies where I think the female lead is portrayed as a real person. Fonseca with her stellar performance round it off and make her character very relatable. Unfortunately Doneger's character is a tad underdeveloped which makes him a lot more the typical RomCom lead, with all the tropes and predictability. And in my opinion most of it is due to the fact that they went for the typical 3 act structure, which wouldn't have been necessary, considering the chemistry the leads have. Bottom line, the movie is worth watching if you're not totally opposed to RomComs. The story has redeeming qualities, the acting is good and the ending, although predictable, has a bit of a twist. And Bruce Campbell is in it.

The only real difference from every other: We-annoy-each-other-so-much- we,-just-have-to-fall-in-love movie.Is that the female is an escort,and not a very good one. There is absolutely no chemistry between the actors,they couldn't even pass for rivaling siblings. The dialogue is forced and lifeless. The comedy none existent.And you really don't care about the characters.(the line about the drink and the *, is the best and only funny part about the entire movie) I always thought he point of becoming an escort, was to get well payed and don't have to work streets and bars like a common hooker. Turns out I was wrong,they do work bars. The female lead is mildly attractive but very average looking, certainly not stunning.She look like a girl you could meet at a party, as someone's friend.(Not sure if that was what they were going for) The male lead is a pudgy,not very attractive sex-addict.Who through and app gets laid all the time, with stunning women's no less. Sadly this just help sink the movie. The dude is 4 maybe a 5 at he best, from a woman's perspective ..Yet women who are a 9-10+ Are willing to meet up with him for unconditional FREE sex. If that was realistic every nerd would get laid 5 times a day. Yet he has no real trait,in how to relate or interact with others. Get the impression,he mostly think of them as annoying inconvenience in his sex life. Even more stupid is when the escort stalks him, through a deserted streets at night,wearing bright red dress,and high heals.To find out where he is going ***********warning spoiler**************warning spoiler*************** Seriously who ever written this script, need to get out more. High heels are quite noisy,you don't really stalk someone wearing those. You know from the get go, how this will go down. They fall in love,than he suddenly gonna have a problem with people pawing all over his property, for money.He gonna do something stupid and interfere with her and a client,they gonna break up or start argue.They'll break up,than at the end they will get back together again and so on. This movie is just as bad as Sasha Grey's The Girlfriend Experience ,and just as boring. The acting is sub par,the chemistry none existent.And the actors look like they hate what they signed up for,and are not really trying to hide it

In the end of my childhood I have seen Pretty Woman a few times. Later in my twenties I have watched the movie again. And then you realize this movie is not so romantic anymore. It's just a lucky (beautiful) prostitute that gets an (attractive) rich guy. That movie is told like a beautiful fairy tale with a happy end. This movie comes much closer to reality. The main story line of the movie is predictable, but there are enough enjoyable moments to like this movie. Also the chemistry between the main characters makes it fun to watch. The motivation of the main characters makes the story believable and you can empathize with them; cyberbullying, loneliness, self esteem, money problems, family issues, addictions, rejection and of course the 'is love real' question. So Yes, it's not a 'Pretty Woman' fairy tale and NO it's also not based on a true story, it's something in between and that makes is worth the effort to watch.

nice one
