Entourage





Cast: Adrian Grenier(Chase),Kevin Connolly(Eric), Kevin Dillon(Johnny), Jerry Ferrara(Turtle), Jeremy Piven(Ari Gold) and Haley Joel Osment(Travis)
Director: Doug Ellin
Genre: Comedy, Drama



A slightly different class of comedy, perhaps not for all audience



You may look forward to:

  • This flick is woven around Adrian Grenier, a Hollywood star who only dreams to get bigger. He takes the center stage, although he is not necessarily the main figure. I do not really remember him from many movies, nevertheless, he plays a classic character who is a star based on opportunities, all good credits to him for the portrayal :)
  • This movie is basically about various characters, and their caricatures. Kevin Connolly, Kevin Dillon, Jerry Ferrara, Jeremy Pivena nd Haley Joel Osment, all of them have equal stakes, each one of them have a distinct personality and parallel lives running. Where some of them are aimlessly wandering, while others only understand money





What you can sleep over:

It is a subtle comedy, most of the audience may find the story headed directionless, no build up, no climax. Mostly an uncertain experimental take. Go to watch it minus any commercial comedy expectations




The dampeners you should be aware of:

Some more detailed elements could be added to make the film look more inviting. A little more details about 'Johnny's' character could have added a lot of value. There was no prominent background of the character 'Turtle' either
When there is a movie which is all about the individual characters and low on script, the characters better be detailed, that's definitely missing largely in the movie




My Rating: 2.5/5

1- Poor  2-Average  3-Good  4-Very Good  5- Outstanding
