Movie star Vincent Chase, together with his boys Eric, Turtle, and Johnny, are back - and back in business with super agent-turned-studio head Ari Gold on a risky project that will serve as Vince's directorial debut.
Packed with cameos by everyone from Jessica Alba to Mark Wahlberg and created for those with a very short attention span, the first big-screen film about TV’s spoiled Hollywood brothers somehow works.
Neither a Medellin-style disaster nor an Aquaman-sized hit, this pays decent fan service but an Ari-centric spinoff might have been the smarter move.
Whether you’ll enjoy watching these characters over the length of a movie, compared to a more digestible 25-minute episode, rather depends on how much Hollywood excess you can take. Glossy and gaudy, it’s all surface and little substance. But then Entourage fans wouldn’t have it any other way.
Still eschewing irony, satire or self-awareness, TV’s bros-before-hos celebration of young guys living the celeb dream reaches the big screen.
Sex and the City for men? More like a Nineties lads' mag on screen.
This is mostly pretty indulgent stuff.
A breezy, lazy time-filler that doesn’t come up with anything new in terms of character development, plot or location.
Hatefully unfunny.
