\"entourage\"<\/a>\u201cEntourage\u201d is probably the first movie I\u2019ve ever wanted to punch. It\u2019s also the only movie I\u2019m sure that if I punched, my fist would probably smell like Axe body spray for a few weeks. \u201cEntourage\u201d is certainly a movie. It had a beginning, a middle, and an end, and had actors in it, and a script. I’m assuming. I\u2019ll just lay it all on the floor right now: I have never seen a single episode of \u201cEntourage\u201d even though I am familiar with it. For folks that would argue that you have to be a fan to understand and or enjoy this film, I would argue that that excuse only highlights how terrible this movie is.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It should be allowing everyone in a broader audience to enter it and feel as if they\u2019ve seen a movie. Otherwise why didn\u2019t HBO just air this as a two hour television movie exclusive allowing only fans to find it? I just don\u2019t accept that \u201cWell you have to be a fan to like this\u201d junk. In either case, \u201cEntourage: The Movie\u201d is a waste of time and a vapid piece of crapola that thankfully tanked at the box office. It\u2019s an endless stream of palaver spouted by an endless parade of vapid California personalities. They all saunter around Hollywood either bumping in to celebrities or walking past a group of really sexy women. Seriously, in a country where obesity is an epidemic, I refuse to believe every single inch of Hollywood is filled with gorgeous models.<\/p>\n

In either case, \u201cEntourage\u201d is packed with a bunch of A, B, and C plots, all of which I assume has to do with the end of the original series. The biggest conflict I could find that only peaked my interest even for a moment was main character Vince\u2019s struggles with a film executive\u2019s son (Haley Joel Osment) who desperately wants to cut his brother Johnny out of his up and coming prestige film. Along the way Vince battles with the young executive to keep his brother in the film, and this all leads to a moronic twist involving\u2014what else? A hot girl.<\/p>\n

Well, Emily Ratajkowski, who plays herself and can barely do that convincingly. It\u2019s shocking how much talent appears in \u201cEntourage\u201d and is given nothing to do. Billy Bob Thorton, Kelsey Grammer, Mark Wahlberg, all these individuals appear for mere minutes and never actually lessen the blunt force of obnoxiousness that is \u201cEntourage.\u201d The glorified series finale really just coasts along for a hundred minutes following a ton of characters you instantly want to see mowed down by a truck, and never actually achieves laughs, or a remotely engaging premise. It\u2019s empty nonsense, and one I won\u2019t be watching again.<\/p>\n

Featured on the Blu-Ray\/DVD release is \u201cThe Gang: Still Rockin\u2019 It,\u201d a fourteen minute look at the creation and end of \u201cEntourage\u201d with creator Doug Ellin. He\u2019s joined by all of the cast of the show, all of whom discuss the eight season run on HBO, and the beginnings of the big screen reunion. \u201cHollywood, Baby!\u201d is an eighty minute EPK that explores the process of transforming the show to a more risky movie. There are interviews with the cast and producer Mark Wahlberg. \u201cThe Making of Hyde\u201d is a five minute mock featurette covering the making of the in-film movie \u201cHyde\u201d with Vinnie Chase shooting his movie\u2019s opening scene. There are nineteen minutes of deleted, extended and alternate scenes, as well as a look at Doug Ellin\u2019s son Lucas, the two minute \u201cLucas Ellin is Jonah Gold,\u201d and finally a three minute gag reel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
