Entourage: The Movie

Where do I begin? This movie was awesome. "Entourage" is my favorite TV show of all time. I was heavily predisposed to like this movie, but don't get me wrong: I would have given this two stars if it really sucked.Boy, I have no idea how this movie bombed at the box office, or got any negative reviews (from anyone who loved the show). What is the movie? Well, it is an adaptation of the TV show "Entourage," in which movie actor Vincent Chase tries to get famous, and to succeed in Hollywood. Along for the ride is his "entourage:" the gang of guys he grew up with in Queens, NY. These are the guys who truly love him, and actually care for him. Success in Hollywood is the icing on the cake, but the true male friendship that he has with his entourage is the real happiness in his life. That doesn't stop him from shagging groupies, or piling up cash, exotic cars, and mansions. The animal side of him chases the fame, while his friends bring him the true, grounded happiness in a town where there are no real friends, and everything is cutthroat business.This particular movie's main theme is that Vincent's fire-breathing agent, Ari Gold has been promoted to studio head, and has given Vinny his own movie to direct and star in. The financiers from Texas are pounding the desk as the movie has gone over budget. They send their spoiled brat son (Haley Joel Osment) out to Hollywood to confront the movie making team, and egos clash. This movie is interesting, as there are several minor plots that go along with the main plot. Haley Joel Osment gives the best performance of the movie as the loose cannon wayward son that might ruin everything. Ari Gold (Jeremy Piven) is near to his best, as writer/director Doug Ellin has written him some great dialogue. It should be noted that the movie goes a little too hard on Texas, as some of the insults towards it border on bigoted and intolerant.On the whole, though, the dialogue is legitimately funny, and this would rank as one of the better episodes of "Entourage" if it were part of the series. A minor complaint is that a couple of the instances in the movie verged on being a little too contrived, but just barely. Also, you could see that Doug Ellin is used to writing 30 minute TV episodes, because, as this movie exceeded 30 minutes, Ellin just kept stacking up more plot lines, as if he were just piling up three episodes on top of each other. A better tactic would have been to have one or two plot lines that just took longer to develop. These are minor complaints, though, and just add up to subtracting one star. On the whole, this movie is excellent, and I think they did a good job at bringing people who had never seen the show up to speed, so I think anyone would like it, but fans of the show will love it.

Love it

I started watching Entourage when it was in it's fourth season on HBO. I didn't want to like it when I first heard the premise for the show. Regardless I caved and binge watched the first season on DVD. I was hooked just a few episodes in an quickly found myself caught up and awaiting new episodes on HBO. As with many shows the series started to reach and felt as though the series had surpassed it's life, the end was near but I still found it entertaining and tuned in. The final season felt rushed and unrealistic and truthfully left me disappointed, feeling as if story lines ended with a fairy tale ending. Then again I don't live a Hollywood lifestyle so maybe fairy tale endings like the ones in the show do happen.A although I tend to re-watch the series at least once a year (thank you amazon for recently adding the entire series to prime), for me the movie was a redemption and it left me wanting more. Even with how the series ended this movie had me wishing the series would come back for more. I actually felt sad when I hit pause to step away and saw that only ten minutes were left.If you have not watched the series you will not appreciate the movie because you do need to have some background into each of the characters. There are many things that only an avid fan will get as some of the jokes relate to situations the characters encountered throughout the series. I think that first timers will enjoy the movie but you will enjoy it more if you have watched the series.My selfish hope is to drive sales up so HBO considers a sequel. I don't work for amazon but as I mentioned all episodes are on prime so sign up and binge watch.Even though I purchased the digital version I plan to pre order on blub-day closer to the release date."VICTORY"

Nice to see the story wrapped up

fav movie of all time

This is the culmination of the HBO series, which was released in 2015. It continues the story of Vince and his friends (the 'Entourage') and his ascent to stardom. It is filled with celebrity cameos and has a great plot, which is that Vince is dating a beautiful starlet and starting a new movie project, financed by Texas oil money. Ari runs the studio, wants Vince on the movie, but the son of the Texas oilman doesn't. The plot is believable and filled with funny anecdotes and tangent storylines among the other members of the 'Entourage'. The ending is sweet, and finally answers the question of whether E & Sloan will be together as a couple. Highly recommended if you enjoyed the HBO series.

If you go into this movie simply for another chance to watch the boys after missing the tv show. You’ll be happy. Just as funny, ridiculous and charming as ever.

The writing, acting, and directing were superb. Just like the show, it'll make you wish you lived in Hollywood and were part of the gang. Thank you, Doug Ellin, for writing one of the best, most unforgettable shows ever made.VICTORY!

Il film è la naturale continuazione delle 8 serie tv andate in onda su rai 4 (tutte e 8) e sky (le prime 3).Il doppiaggio italiano è totalmente diverso da quello della serie tv, peccato perché la serie è doppiata benissimo; chi l'ha seguito in tv farà bene a vederlo in lingua originale, anche perché la qualità dell'audio del parlato italiano rispetto alle musiche di sottofondo è davvero pessima!La custodia è di plastica non rigida, originale ma non solida, non adatta per conservarlo in fila verticale (uno sull'altro).I contenuti speciali, mezz'ora circa, contengono quell'umorismo e le chicche dialettiche tipiche della serie, infatti il film a volte ha dei toni un pelo meno scanzonati, ho quindi apprezzato molto gli extra e già quelli valgono il dvd, che altrimenti si può tranquillamente scaricare da vari store online.

Ich habe mich zurück erinnert an die schöne Entourage Zeit und mir die DVDs bestellt, dann habe ich im Fernsehen einen Trailer zum Film gesehen und musste ihn haben. Vorbstellt und erhalten. Ich gebe einigen Vorrednern Recht. Die Synchronstimmen sind teilweise anders.Da wird der ein oder andere sage, dann stell auf Englisch um. Schön und gut. Wenn man die Serie auf Deutsch anschauen und geniessen möchte, dann kann man nicht für den Film auf Englisch umstellen. Nicht jeder hat Zeit sich die Serie nochmals auf Englisch anzusehen, nur dass der Film dann auch auf Englisch angeschaut werden kann.Die anderen Synchronstimmen stören, aber stören meinem allgemeinen Filmgenuss nicht, deshalb 5 Sterne

Yo compré un pack que venía con la siguiente descripción Entourage (El Séquito) (BD + DVD + Copia Digital), y mi sorpresa es cuando llega la edición dvd de la película sin más. Pienso que Amazon debería cuidar más estos detalles porque ahora te planteas si devolverlo, con las molestias que te ocasiona el imprimir la etiqueta, embalar y desplazarte a correos, o quedarte un producto que no es el que habías solicitado. Además no lo cambian porque la edición blu ray no está en castellano.

Der Film ist richtig gut gelungen ohne das Flair der Serie zu beschädigen. Klar hat man das Gefühl der Film sei nur eine besonders lange Folge, aber genau das macht es für mich aus. Die Charaktere werden auch im Film stimmig weitergeführt und entwickeln sich. Seitens des Drehbuches und Regie gibt es nicht zu meckern. Auch die Schauspieler verrichten einen sehr guten Job.Leider hat man die Synchronstimmen geändert und das leider bei den wichtigsten Personen der Serie. Vielleicht sollte man ein Kickstarter Projekt gründen und alles mit den originalen Stimmen neu synchronisieren. Ari und Drama hätten es verdient.

Die Jungs auf der großen Leinwand im Kino zu sehen war Klasse. Als Fan der Show, war klar dass die Blu-ray in meiner Sammlung nicht fehlen darf.Hollywood- und US-Sportstars, Mädels , nudity, derbe und schräge Sprüche, Drama, Witz und natürlich die Jungs - mehr braucht es nicht für einen gelungen Fernsehabend ;)Für jemanden, der die Serie nicht gesehen hat, ist der Film weniger zu empfehlen. Schaut euch zuvor lieber die komplette Serie an und anschließend den Film.Die geänderten Synchronstimmen gehen mal gar nicht. Da schaut man 8 Staffeln lang eine Serie und dann sowas. Hatte zunächst die Hoffnung, dass ich mich im Laufe des Films an die neuen Stimmen gewöhnen würde, doch dem war leider nicht so. Denn neben dem Aussehen, Auftreten, dem was man sagt ist auch das wie (Stimme) Charakterbildend. Und so hatte ich immer das Gefühl, neue Charakter vorgesetzt bekommen zu haben :(Folgende Extras sind auf der Blu-ray enthalten (Originalton mit wahlweise deutschen Untertiteln):The Gang-Still Rockin'it ca.14minHollywood, Baby! ca. 8minThe Making of Hyde ca.4minDeleted Scenes ca. 18minGag Reel (Outtakes) ca. 3minMeet the Newest Member of Entourage (Interview mit Lucas Ellin als er noch jünger war) ca.2minLucas Ellin is Jonah Gold (Kommentare von Lucas Ellin zum Entourage Movie) ca.2min
