"Tits: The BEST, and ass: insane" (in reference to Porn -John Martello)
Wow! An actually thoughtful movie about the thoughtless subject of porn. I found the characters to be extreme stereotypes...but I think the story was better for it. Sometimes classic tropes get the job done. Did I mention this movie was made by Joseph Gordon-Levitt. As first attempts go, I am astounded. It seemed to me that he set out to hopefully show bros and ladies "out for the total package" that, no matter what, true human emotional connection will trump physical attraction, lust, and voyeurism. Talk about some balls.
If you are uncomfortable with bro-mentality, machismo, or male facade...this movie might not be for you. Bu, I still highly suggest it. (It's lopsided, one-way thinking for a good cause.)
Ratings:
Scar Jo: You consistently surprise me with your acting, but yeah you are extremely attractive.
Tony Danza: You were perfect in your role. Perfect
The Catholic church: Yeah that whole scene and plot about confession forced me to ask..how do they dole out Hail Marys. What are the metrics?
Guy I once unknowingly bought reel to reel 1970s swedish erotica from at a storage unit sale: See it
Budding film makers: See it
On a scale of Professor XXX to XXX (with Ice-Cube not Vin Diesel) I give Don Jon 3.89 out of 5 stars.
