Review of The Girlfriend Experience (2009) by Tim S — 23 Nov 2009
Not as bad as I thought it was going to be (obviously I thought it was going to be terrible). Sasha Grey isn't bad, but the whole problem that I had with the movie was that I didn't know if we were supposed to feel bad for her or if Soderbergh was going for something different.
The whole thing is all about what most every Hollywood asshole is interested in: I wonder what that call girl's that I just took a shit on life is like after she leaves this Four Seasons through the back door.
I love how these guys are still confused about women when the whole thing stems from the fact that the entire environment that they live is basically a joke (a really expensive joke). I will say this, though, the movie looks great, I liked the things said about the economy and how it associated with the film (topical taken to new heights), and I thought the ending was fantastic.
