Poorly executed drama with little to pique interest
17 July 2013
This film is about a controversial adult entertainment tycoon who made a fortune in the West End of London decades ago.

"The Look of Love" is a biopic about an interesting character, it could have had so much potential to be portraying morally questionable individuals in glamorous and exotic settings. The film concentrates on Paul Raymond' love life and his adult magazine, with little character and plot development. Characters are so poorly introduced that I got so confused by simple stuff like how many children he had. The end result is that I didn't care for any of the characters. The abundance of nudity was not shown artistically either, as other similar films somehow managed.

"The Look of Love" is long and boring due to its a poorly executed plot. It is a degrading mess that I feel sorry for the people involved, especially the nude actresses. And I think the film is such a misnomer, Paul Raymond's on screen character is about every bit love does not look like.
