American Gigolo

This series continues to suprise me the further I get. First, you can't go wrong with the creator of Ray Donovan at the helm. And second, it is always captivating not one boring moment.

Jon Bethernol usually seems to play the same actor but in this he emulates Richard Gere so well and there's times where he looks just like him.

It's a very layered shows with a lot of things going on (in a good way) to keep the viewer compelled.

This series is absolutely fantastic and insanely bingable. Well done and bravo.

Ignore the negative reviews and watch the first episode and you'll thank me. Great rendering of a remake.

Is this show going to win any awards? No. But did I enjoy it enough to binge it all in 2 days? Yes.

I found it entertaining and an easy show to watch, Jon was great in it. Rosie was amazing, bringing comedic relief to a non comedy can be cringe but it was done so well.

People complain about the flashbacks but I didn't mind them at all. It shows what the character is thinking about in that month.

Feel very sorry for the main character in this, and to be honest there are a lot of "oh that's so silly" moments in the show, but I've given it a 7 for entertainment value and good acting. And Shirtless Jon. That helps.

Only reviewing it after the pilot, but it's dark, punchy, very interestingly paced and overall attractive. Camerawork and music are good, some moments where past blends with the present are especially notable because of that like the one In the second half of the pilot, where our protagonist is visiting his mother. It does sound like an interesting story, but it's also nice to watch. Hard to tell how it will develop further, but start is very, very promising. American Gigolo presents very specific, dark vibe that is lasting after you have finished the episode. I will follow this show and even if it loses momentum, I recommend watching the pilot for this very vibe.

Another reviewer thinks they needed an actor that is good looking and women would want to sleep with...obviously a man. Well they found that man. Jon Bernthal is not only a fantastic actor, but he is extremely sexy and I love his looks. I would not turn him down and I doubt many women would.

I saw the original movie with Richard Gere, and in his day he was the right choice for the role. Jon Bernthal is today's right choice for this role. Give it a chance, and you will see what is so obvious to everyone else. This is a hard and gritty film to watch but Jon Bernthal and cast handle it well. Jon is very convincing at the beginning when he says he does not remember anything. I have always found his acting strong and convincing.

I think 7 is a decent score overall, there are some good episodes and some fine ones, one thing that's consistent in them all is the performance from Jon Bernthal and Rosie O Donnel who were stand outs for me.

The story is of Julian K who gets out of Prison after 15 years of being wrongly convicted, the secrets of his past come back to haunt him as he contemplates how to move on with his life. We get flashes into his past which show us how he has been put on the path of a gigolo.

Decent show, a little dragged here and there. Dropping to 7 episodes probably would have made it better, a weak enough finale which was disappointing but the whole premise of the show is good and Bernthal was great in it, solid watch I do recommend, 7/10.
