Customer Reviews of American Gigolo [Region 2]
Los Angeles: The Movie. I couldn't agree more with many of the other criticisms regarding the shallowness of the romantic story or essential lack of sympathy for any of the characters. The thing that makes American Gigolo such a gem is that even this aspect of Paul Schrader's attempted New Wave/LA hybrid is corrupted by its material. <

>And on a purely superficial level, the film perfectly captures just how a Southern California "tragedy" would unfold. Really quite brilliant, although I'm not sure all of it is intentional.

I ordered the DVD, and three days later it was on my front porch. Great work! And, of course, the movie is a classic.

This is one movie that grew entirely from its failings into one of the most influential movies of the last 20 years.How could the director of "Taxi Driver" blow it? The ingredients were in line: attractive stars: Model of the decade, Lauren Hutton; Richard Gere, Slim Von Wink;supporting cast,Hector Elizondo, Latino on the rise, Bill Duke (future director)and the blond near-actress tied to Howard Hughes, Nina Von whatever.The movie rides entirely on the surface, two wheels instead of four on the ground. Slick, teasing.Innuendos,political smear. The screenwriter could not tie the pieces together into a cohesive drama. You didn't know whether it would be a political thriller or a fashion thriller. The clothes, the glitter and gloss blend with the gross. You had as much concern for Gere's fate as his choice of wardrobe at the end. Let the music play, end of movie.Made you want to shop forever.All wrapping.Strictly beefcake.
