Watch Whores' Glory For Free

Highly Overrated But Still Good

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

And, as the saying goes.... "What's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?" *Be Warned!* - Whores' Glory is an extremely stark and vivid "human-nature" documentary that (due to its sad, depressing, and startlingly candid subject matter) is certainly not going to appeal to everyone.Filmed exclusively in Thailand, Bangladesh, and Mexico - If you've ever been curious to know what a whore's life might be like, then here's a professionally presented production that'll certainly open your eyes to all of the ins & outs (pardon the pun) of such a down'n'dirty business as that of the prostitution trade.Competently directed by German film-maker, Michael Glawogger - My one big beef about Whores' Glory has to do with Glawogger's choice not to document the ways and means of whores both in a European setting, as well as a glimpse at all of the slutty action in America, too.I personally think that that would have given the viewer a much more rounded perspective on the "world's-oldest-profession" as it exists today.*Special note* - While visiting Liberia, film-maker, Michael Glawogger died in 2014 (at the age of 54) from malaria.

"Whores' Glory" is a German/Austrian co-production from 5 years ago written and directed by Michael Glawogger, a filmmaker who died from malaria during working on one of his more recent projects. This is also why I wish I could go more easy on his work here, probably the most famous film of his career. Sadly, I must say this only had a few good moments and unfortunately not enough for pretty much exactly two hours. The film examines the level of prostitution in several parts of the world including Latin America and Asia for example. I must say though that there were no real differences. The only real differences came from the personal approach that all the prostitutes gave the subject and their profession. Only very few seemed to have no problems at all with it, most of them were suffering, but they needed to do it for the money. And this made it a very tragic watch.All in all, I think this documentary would have worked better if it had been kept at 90 minutes max and maybe focused only on one specific area of the planet. This way he could have given a deeper insight and we may have learned something that goes beyond the surface. Not saying this film doesn't, but it certainly could have been a better film in my opinion. My expectations were not fulfilled looking at the IMDb rating and also at other critics reviews. So my suggestion is that you watch this if you are really interested in the subject or if you come from any of the regions depicted in the film to get a realistic approach that you probably would not have otherwise. Everybody else can skip it I guess. Not recommended.

This film was a surprise. It was quite interesting, and gave a real look into prostitution that I didn't expect to see. A very well made film. It wasn't until the end that I was disappointed. The graphic sex acts shown being performed were unnecessary, as was all the nudity that didn't present itself anywhere else in the film. The first two countries, Thailand and India, gave us honest looks into the lives of the women. I felt the last portion on Mexico further victimized these women and basically turned into a porno. The film lost some credibility when women started whipping their breasts out and allowed themselves to be filmed giving blow jobs.

The film is interesting and powerful, albeit depressing. No idea how the director got access to give us such a candid look, but this is a dark side of the world you won't see anywhere else. The subject is self explanatory, if you're at all interested about the lives of these women in Thailand, Bangladesh, and Mexico then you should experience this.My one critique is thematically, the movie is about prostitution in abject poverty, not prostitution as a "job", but does not make any distinction. The prostitutes in Bangladesh and Mexico he shows were in absolutely horrifying conditions - they were forced into it, threatened if they tried to leave, and barely paying for food. Whereas in Amsterdam, Germany, and even many in Bangkok treat it as an occupational choice. They can get other jobs, but choose to do this. Those are two VERY different circumstances that can have very different effects on people physically and emotionally. That would be my critique to keep in mind while watching. The movie is not so much a commentary on the evils of prostitution or even the lives of prostitutes, as it is delving into the darkest depth of what desperate conditions can bring.
