Editorial Reviews: Amazon.co.uk Review iEntourage/i's fifth season leaves our movie star in a pickle: his big Oscar shot, iMedellin/i, is a dismal failure, and Vincent (Adrian Grenier) has burrowed away to Mexico to drown his sorrows in booze and women. How does a once-promising actor get his confidence, legitimacy, and bankability back? That's the key premise this time around, and like some of its previous seasons, is always more interesting when Vince is struggling than when he's on top. Once his crew--manager Eric (Kevin Connolly), big brother Johnny Drama (Kevin Dillon), agent Ari (Jeremy Piven), and driver Turtle (Jerry Ferrara)--convince Vince to get back in the game, he finds many once-welcoming doors closed. He eagerly takes a meeting with iShawshank Redemption/i director Frank Darabont (playing himself), only to feel insulted when he finds it's for a TV pilot. (His subsequent options? Appearing at a Sweet Sixteen party and doing a Benji movie.) Once a promising script about firefighters (called iSmokejumpers/i) piques Vince's interest, ensuing episodes become a complex chess game of job-hopping, backdoor-dealing, and back-scratching, which is always iEntourage/i's strength. As Vince watches his star fade, Grenier gets a chance to let his sunny optimism crack, even sitting in Ari's office and begging to be told he's a good actor.p/ The celebrity guest stars are plentiful and more integral this season. Jason Patric--playing himself--lampoons his difficult on-set reputation brilliantly as Vince's co-star in iSmokejumpers/i. (The onetime iSpeed 2/i star brags about being offered the lead in iAquaman 2/i, but turned it down: "Sequels, water: they're not for me.") Stellan Skarsgard (iGood Will Hunting/i) plays a famous German director who clashes with Vince; Jamie-Lynn Sigler (iThe Sopranos/i) cameos as a new love interest for Turtle; Leighton Meester (iGossip Girl/i) reprises her Season One role as an aspiring singer, and Eric Roberts plays himself (who happens to deal 'shrooms on the side) in a wacky episode involving the guys' drug-fueled night of reflection at Joshua Tree. Even Mark Wahlberg, the show's producer and inspiration, plays himself in a golf scene with former agent Ari (priceless line: "What about when you told me you liked iThe Truth About Charlie/i?"). The only unwelcome cameo is in "Seth Green Day," in which the actor turns up for no other reason than to re-surface his war with Eric and annoy everyone to death. --iEllen A. Kim/i

Customer Reviews: Feeling sorry for Vince? Almost. June 30, 2009 andyl_14 5 out of 6 found this review helpful Downloaded this series from iTunes and will get the boxset when it comes out. br /Despite it being quite a short series (writers strike?) a classic series, think the character of Vince actually develops, he is struggling for the 1st time and for the 1st time in the series so far you actually feel for him. br / br /Drama's career is going from strength to strengh, Turtle has a celb gf, The Murphy Group has doubled it's clientel, whilst Vince is struggling to get any kind of roll! br / br /Ari is still the best character a classic episode involving his arch enemy Adam Davis - which is probably my favourite Entourage episode. br / br /Some great cameos from celbs - Seth Green returns to haunt E. br / br /Certainly my favourite comedy on TV and looking forward to Season 6 launching on iTunes in September! Who wants to be in their gang? October 7, 2009 ACMN1 Entourage is the only box-set I've ever been bothered to collect the lot of... So funny, wry and clever. I'd rather watch a few episodes of Entourage on a Saturday night than catch a film (and I definitely prefer a night of Entourage to a night out...) The soundtrack is wicked too! NB: I'm the only girl I know who likes it... Best show on TV! October 13, 2009 Princess Dala This show is simply the best, most entertaining thing on TV ever... it's so rewatchable as well. Can't wait for Season 6! Class act !!! November 12, 2009 S. Patel (London) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful After season 4, you started to think, how are they ever going to top that ?? And fortunately for us, they have!!! br / br /More gags, more stars - This show keeps getting better and better. Buy it now !!! Hollywood Nights March 8, 2009 Graham Chapman (London) 8 out of 27 found this review helpful Ari, E, Drama, Turtle are back!! Oh yeah, and that other guy too..what's his name? Vince. br / br /Entourage 5 is the same mix of boys' fantasy and witty one liners. The shows revolve around Ari and E, with Drama and Turtle playing the clowns. It really is about the entourage and not the 'star'. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, not Hamlet. br / br /Some characters return - Dom and Seth Green in a couple of really good episodes. Turtle scores with a celebrity! Ari is the king of Hollywood still - good acting, great lines (but do they have to be so homophobic? Would the script writers put the same type of scabrous lines in Ari's mouth about a black assistant as they do about Lloyd? No because that type of bigotry rightly wouldn't be acceptable. Why is this type?) br / br /If you liked 1 to 4, this is just as addictive. Like coke (the drink), enjoyable, but somehow you know it's not good for you.
