Review of Don Jon (2013) by Joseph G — 08 Jan 2016

I can't believe this film got trashed with a 58% rating!!! Do yourself a favor and watch this film to see for yourself that this film deserves much more respect. Is this a cinematic masterpiece ? No, but it is a very strong and witty directorial debut from J.

G.L and his best acting since "Angels In The Outfield" JK JK .... Seriously though this film had so many great moments, like when don jon's GF goes to hug his dad goodbye (a perfectly cast Tony Danza ) and he goes in for the kiss, that one moment was perfectly played and had me rolling with laughter.

After all the porn clips, banging club music, and aimless sex we are left with a story that actually deals with the deeper issue of "Real Sex". Juliane more plays somewhat of a surprise role in the film and really adds another layer depth.

There is so much going on that I almost wanted the film to go longer, but in the end we are left with a well paced gem that had me rushing to the store to pick up Don Jon on DVD.
