The Escort (2015)

What makes it different from others?

Such a frustrating disappointment

just watch it!

Excellent but underrated film

Escort refers to someone who escorts someone to events. This is nothing but a movie about a prostitute and a sex crazed man. When searching for reviews on this movie it was compared to porn movies. It is also compared to Pretty Woman. Not even close. Pretty Woman was in no denial that she was a prostitute.

I'm a fan of Lyndsy Fonseca from Nikita and Kick Ass and her charm keeps this comic romance movie watchable. She plays a Stanford educatd escort who meets a journalist / sex addict who decides to write a story about her. There is reason why she is an escort.Following a tried and tested indie romance formula, the 2 flawed characters fall in love - a little drama ensues and then there is a happy ending.There haven't been too many happy hooker fairy tale stories since Pretty Woman. This is many years later so things are a tad less innocent and a bit more realistic but the tone of the show is light and comical in parts. That doesn't completely cover the ickiness of the premise but neither did Pretty Woman.

Pretty intentional. It says it doesn't want to go that way, but in the end that's what it does. So the story was nothing new, but it was the cast, particularly Lyndsy Fonseca. She was too hot for the title role. A sex addict journalist tries to do a story on high-end escort for his new job. They agree on to be purely professional, but as they explore each day, a new friendship develops. After learning that she's well educated and the reason for taking this path, it all comes to when his story is ready to publish. Their both lives are about to turn around, but how is what told just before the end.The film was not bad, but not good enough to praise. Worth a watch if you are not anticipating and just want an entertainment. Obviously the film is for the adults, but you won't be happy if you are looking for according to the title. Because the title name is only where the film plot was initiated and the remaining story was all about the character surrounding it. So it is not an erotic drama or romance or a thriller. The film was short and well maintained pace, but not the film of the year.6/10

Cute film. It's supposed to be a romantic comedy but I didn't find much comedy in it. The movie moved a little slow as well but not horrible. However, it reminded me of the movies with Drew Barrymore called "Never Been Kissed," except this is about sex and escorts rather than something more innocent. Same storyline with main character being a reporter/journalist, semi-going under cover, falling in love with the other guy, blah, blah, blah.
