cds-71162 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.

phd_travel 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.

SnoopyStyle Mitch Cooper (Michael Doneger) chases anonymous sex online in L.A. He's at a hotel bar waiting for another date when Natalie (Lyndsy Fonseca) shows up. She's actually a high price escort working the bar. The mix up does not go well. Mitch gets fired as a reporter. He struggles to find another job and decides to write about the escort world. He goes back to the bar to find Natalie as his subject.This is a lower budget indie. The guy is lackluster. Fonseca is really the only reason that I started watching this. This tries to be a little humorous with limited success. She has a bit of sass. There are references to Pretty Woman but this is not even in the ballpark. The couple has no chemistry. It's not particularly sexy or fun or dark or poignant or anything. Fonseca gets it part of the way but it doesn't really get there.

lavatch The two performances of Michael Doneger and Lyndsy Fonseca were outstanding in this unusual romantic comedy.At the beginning of the film, it was unclear how the style would evolve. Was this to be a satirical film? a farce? an exposé on prostitution and sex addiction? As it turns out, it was an effective romantic comedy as the relationship of two characters of Mitch and Natalie evolved into a pair of soul mates. There was good chemistry between the actors, as well as some creative dialogue. The characters of Mitch's family, including a hip songwriter of a father and a precocious sister, added to to the comedy.While "The Escort" may not be a great film, it was nonetheless a well-paced rom com, due primarily to two excellent performances.
