The Girlfriend Experience stars adult film actress Sasha Grey as Chelsea, a high-priced escort who offers her wealthy clientele the eponymous service. In other words, on their long, often overnight "dates," she assumes the role of a temporary romantic partner, attending highbrow cultural events, engaging in intellectual discourse, and eating at hip and expensive restaurants, all while expressing an interest in the client's life and work. She keeps a detailed journal about her clients. Chelsea's live-in boyfriend, a personal trainer (Chris Santos, who previously worked as a personal trainer in the real world), struggles with trying to earn a fair share of the upscale business he brings into his gym. Chris is conflicted when a wealthy client invites him on a weekend trip to Vegas. The couple faces further problems when Chelsea finds herself sincerely attracted to one of her clients, a married screenwriter. Over the course of the film, Chelsea is interviewed by a journalist (played by real-life journo Mark Jacobson, whose reporting on Frank Lucas inspired the film American Gangster), and visits "The Erotic Connoisseur," a sleazy blogger who reviews escort services (portrayed by film critic Glenn Kenny). Director Steven Soderbergh shot The Girlfriend Experience (under the pseudonym Peter Andrews) using the same high-definition camera he used on Che. The script is by the writing team David Levien and Brian Koppelman (Rounders), who previously worked with Soderbergh on Ocean's Thirteen. The Girlfriend Experience was shown at the 2009 Tribeca Film Festival. As with Soderbergh's Bubble, it was released theatrically and on pay-per-view on the same date. ~ Josh Ralske, Rovi

Review For The Girlfriend Experience

Naturalistic performances and stylish, semi-documentary-style cinematography and editing (both courtesy of the director) make for an engrossing, insightful study of internal and interpersonal conflict.
Geoff Andrew-Time Out

The movie ends so abruptly (it runs a scant 77 minutes), it's a toss-up as to whether Soderbergh was trying to make an auteur statement or simply lost his mojo.
Peter Howell-Toronto Star

This is one of the director's small, experimental, semi-improvised provocations, and if it doesn't push too deep, it's pointed enough to leave a mark.
Liam Lacey-Globe and Mail

There are layers upon layers here--a porn star taking on a serious acting role in which she plays a woman whose job is to make herself an object of male fantasy--but it's unclear whether Grey is aware of any of them.
Christopher Orr-The New Republic

After it's over, it quickly vanishes from memory, and viewers are on to the next transaction.
Adam Graham-Detroit News

As much as there is to admire about Soderbergh, his indifference to time sequencing hurts the story here.
Ben Mankiewicz-At the Movies

It's a critique of capitalism by the Ocean's auteur, no less.
Kelly Vance-East Bay Express

The inner-self is not for sale
S. James Wegg-JWR

...yet another failed cinematic experiment from Soderbergh...
David Nusair-Reel Film Reviews

Like a sneaky P.I. seeking weakness, Soderbergh places his camera behind everyday barriers. In half the time, "The Girlfriend Experience" offers as haunting, relentless, incisive and fierce a commentary on human interaction as "Fight Club."
Nick Rogers-Suite101.com

The whole film carries a sort of documentary aesthetic (unsteady camera movements, uncomfortable close-ups, inconsistent sound, etc.) but it remains subtle and unobtrusive throughout.
Nick Deigman-Fan The Fire

The nature of men and the business of relationships
Marty Mapes-Movie Habit

Soderbergh prouve une fois de plus sa versatilité et sa grande créativité, et ce, indépendamment de la taille du projet ou des noms avec lesquels il est appelé à travailler
Jean-François Vandeuren-Panorama

[Star] Sasha Grey gives a sympathetic performance as the ultimate fantasy with a stand out debut...
Felix Vasquez Jr.-Cinema Crazed

This may one day be an interesting time capsule, but it's a lacklustre drama.
Edward Porter-Sunday Times (UK)

A rather uninteresting example of the small-scale films Soderbergh likes to do between more expensive and expansive movies.
Philip French-Observer [UK]

It doesn't say anything too deep, but it says it with crystalline style.
Jonathan Romney-Independent on Sunday

Human feeling dares to outstare, for a mini-moment, the world of accounting, commodification, ecstasy-management.
Nigel Andrews-Financial Times

Joseph Proimakis-Movies for the Masses

It's deliberately chilly, and feels like a series of overheard conversations rather than a story, obliging you to listen for barbs among the trivialities.
Kim Newman-Empire Magazine

The Girlfriend Experience is no date movie: Soderbergh offers a snappily paced but tonally bleak snapshot of an alienated young woman who has ridden the new culture of personal branding to its psychological and physical limits.
