User reviews

I recommend you watch this movie first, then read reviews. Those who are expecting sexually explicit scenes would be disappointed. As for me, I enjoyed this nicely made movie. The acting is superb as pretty much in all French and European movies. I have few unanswered questions about the young guy with so many tattoos, but may be it was meant to be this way, to leave his motives unknown. A scene when he left her money is also confusing. Her story is also remains unknown. All in all it is a snapshot of a segment of life of two people. There is no beginning and no end. A professionally made snapshot.

I just wanted to add that the movie itself was slow-moving but well thought out and an engaging movie and the reason it initially got low reviews is because for some reason some people who watch the movie assume that it will be pornography why I don't know but that seems to be the case

Good acting, but boring film. The plot is nothing new, but could've been okay. But these long, long, long shots on actors sad, sad, sad faces were too much. At some point it almost felt like they like being miserable.

Another "Lifetime"-esque version of prostitution with a PG13 level of nudity. In other words, a complete waste of time. But, wait, will the tattooed bad boy be her saviour? Lead actress is good, but the material is ultra-weak. There's plenty of sex scenes, but no skin. And almost all of them involving a stereotypical misogynistic old man. It's not engaging on any level whatsoever. I'd highly recommend "Student Services" or "Young & Beautiful" or even the TV show "The Girlfriend Experience" as far better material in this genre.

A wonderful movie. I didnt expect anything but ended up enjoying one of the most beautiful love stories I´ve seen in months.

I am looking the suggestive tittle and see a sex doll, looking for some sex or maybe some doll, but nothing no sex no doll nothing..well nothing to do with the tittle, even the girl and the scenes, so boring and looks like a solo monologue, a sleepy movie, does not have any sense at all...waste of time and money, bad movie

Bad acting Bad story Bad cinematography cheap.

Lame direction plot does not thicken.

The movie is worthy of your time. I did not expect that with its low rating, yet it was plotted beautifully. The dialogue makes you engage with the actors upon every scene. I loved how french and English were fused together. I will surely recommend it to a friend. One thing I hate is the poster, it did not reflect the character.

Strong beginning but a little formulated, which makes it cheesy.

Sex Doll begins as this look into the life a a hooker. We see her engaging with her clients on a night by night basis as if she was working a "normal job" or something. The filmmakers do a good job of expressing her subtle contempt for the old, fat and ugly businessmen she sleeps with for money. The film also goes through how she balances this profession without her friends, family, and other relationships discovering the truth.

But I guess that's not enough of a story for a movie, so they added a part about her relationship with a new potential boyfriend, who is more than he seems. It's not a bad add to the story, but for me it does cheapen what it seems they had been trying to do for most of the picture, or what I thought they were doing in humanizing a prostitute's life.

But overall Sex Doll is a good movie that tries not to romanticize or demoralize the decision this young woman made, only humanize the young woman.

I was shocked by the low reviews. It's such a compelling, sad, and glimpse on what "call girls" deal with. It shows the maltreatment, trauma, and reasons for doing what they do.

This is a deep movie. Dialogs are deep, short, concise and full of hidden and suppressed emotion and scars. Keep that in mind. The title is suggestive, so many of you thought there are going to be many sex scenes. That's why there are so many low grades.

but without the gloomy ending of the Shakespeare play. The movie was actually quite a pleasant surprise after I discovered the low rating it had received on IMDb. The dialogue is muted and low-key for the most part, but has a certain touch of authenticity to it. The story follows a number of french-speaking twenty-somethings living in London, with the female lead working secretly as an upscale escort. On a night out with her girlfriend, she meets a tattooed guy that says he might give them a lift home. Later on this strange chap begins to suddenly pop up out of nowhere wherever she finds herself.

The movie is written and directed by the up and coming young French director and actress Sylvie Verheyde.

Not sure why this is scoring low. Really good film.

The performances by the lead actress and actor are spot-on. Unfortunately, the storyline doesn't shine alongside them. Perhaps I didn't expect much in terms of acting from this film, but I immediately went to see what else these two were in because of how impressed I was. I never really figured out who "ash" was working for. There were storylines that they could and should have expanded on, but didn't. Overall, due to the phenomenal acting, I gave this an 8/10 rating. I never lost interest in the slightest, and the acting deserves it.

People who gave this a bad review obvisouly don't have an open mind and can't think outside the box. Such a good movie with an artistic feel. This is real life for some people and they filmed it well.

For me this is a 7 not a 9 but it is definitely better than 4 point whatever. Formulaic? Yes, but then how many films aren't? Very European in style and well done in the main. Worth a watch on a dark winter night in my opinion.

I appreciated the inter-weaving English with French (subtitles where needed) going on in this movie. The story was good with several heavier scenes lightened via the capable skills of the actors. No need for huge budgets when the story is good, characters pull you in. Bon job to you, writer, cast, crew in this sexy romp.

A very romantic movie. Love it. Maybe people expect too much from its poster and title. But no, this is absolutely romantic.
