Review of Loverboy

Loverboy (2003 TV Movie)
8/10
Easygoing and nice film about a new phenomenon in this society: the loverboy!
13 April 2003
Loverboy is made within the project of TeleFilm to promote Dutch movies. Of course the budget is much smaller than the mean Hollywood production, so that we shouldn't expect a high quality production. However this has its own charming effect on the movie. Perhaps the story is simple, but it is easygoing and nice to watch at, especially for the younger people. A reality is exposed which perhaps can be used as a warning: do not trust guys with money too soon! Your self respect is much more important than money.

The story is about a girl named Denise who meets Michael: a charming man who has lots of money and likes to spend it (on Denise). What she doesn't notice, is that Michael has other plans with her; he is a loverboy and wants to use Denise to make money for 'them' by introducing her into the prostitution circuit. Landing in a network of smart tricks and many lies she walks away from home and throws her safe environment and future away.

Finally the only mistake Michael makes, is falling in love with Denise. But after all his lies, can this love still be answered and fulfilled?!
