Sure it would be great to have it all, but at what price? For Vince, Eric, Drama and Turtle, life in Hollywoods fast lane can be an intoxicating ride. In Season Four, in fact, Eric and Vince have taken on new roles as producers. Will their film be hailed as a critical masterpiece, or will it end up on the trash heap of broken Tinseltown dreams?The fourth season of Entourage follows Vincent Chase's quest for legitimacy (and Oscar) through his dream project, the Pablo Escobar biopic Medellin , whose development deal was the focus of season three. As expected, the production is riddled with troubles: Vincent (Adrian Grenier) and Eric (Kevin Connolly) clash over the ability of the film's director, Billy Walsh (Rhys Coiro), to handle the grand scale of a film. Eric even flies in Oscar-winning screenwriter Stephen Gaghan (playing himself) to the shoot in Colombia at Billy's request in order to rescue the script, only to send him home when Billy comes up with the ending himself. ("I've never had anyone pay me not to work before," says Gaghan in a hilarious cameo. "It was nice.") But as the pet project puts strains on their friendship, Eric finally takes a step off of Vince's coattails to become a manager in his own right; his first step is snagging actress Anna Faris (as herself) as a client (in true Hollywood form, after she hits him with her car). As buzz on Medellin ebbs and flows, Eric and Vince's agent, Ari Gold (Emmy winner Jeremy Piven) wheel and deal to lock in distribution and spin the behind-the-scenes drama to their advantage. Key to the negotiations is a swaggering, hotheaded studio magnate named Harvey Weinhald --the caricature is obvious--who threatens the life of any agent who double-crosses him. And that's right where our boys land, but is it a gamble that will pay off? The fourth season, as always, is rife with celebrity cameos (Dennis Hopper, the late Sydney Pollack, Kanye West), but the Medellin plot pushes out any chance for other Entourage cast members to get a storyline (Johnny Drama gets a condo! Buys a hat!), which ultimately becomes a detriment considering that Medellin , as the big finale at Cannes attests, may not have been worth all the hype. Bonus features include commentary by the cast and creators, a panel discussion, and the Medellin trailer, which with its slo-mo, self-important music and bad makeup, is a gem. --Ellen A. Kim

Been There, Done That, Bought the T-shirt:
This season is a bit of a downturn for the series featuring vince and the boys from Queens. This one picks up where Season 3 left off with the gang heading down to South America to film "Medellin" and the efforts to get it shown at Cannes.more info
LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!:
Another great season of enrourage! I love all the characters and witty storylines, I love everything about this show. lifestyles of the decadent and rich gets glowing reviews:
I thought that series on hbo would compare well to series found on regular tv channels, such as CSI on mainstream television. Boy was I wrong. Most of the tv shows seems to be the life and times of people within a certain geographic region with a little skin to show as well. Even at least sex and the city was witty.
more info PUT A FORK IN THIS SHOW:
Very disappointing and growing old and tired. The charecters on this series have not grown since season one and I am growing tired of their child like antics. Any female watching this show should take great insult at being protrayed as nothing more then sexual servants to these idiots. Similar Products:
