Fading Gigolo (2013)
2/10
Insulting on a lot of levels.

Warning: Spoilers
Here's a mess of movie offensive to women and Jews . It might be the worst directed movie of the year. John Turturro gets all the credit as writer director and star. Scenes are too long and slow with dialogue that says nothing. The only thing worse then the dialogue is the frequent staring left, right, or up like it is supposed to mean something. Turturro's flat emotionless performance is more like a Zombie rather then a gigolo.

Woody Allen plays Woody Allen. The music is a highlight. There's a opening sequence that is supposed to look like old home movie film for no reason. Venessa Paradis is miscast and unbelievable as an Orthodox widow. Sharon Stone as a Doctor would ask her patient to procure a guy. In what universe? About as believable as Sofia Vergara needing to pay for a sex.

The movie has no where to go so it ends with another slow talky boring scene. This is a small movie that doesn't need to be seen in a theater. It is best skipped in any format.
