Review of Don Jon (2013) by Hrant B — 01 Jan 2018
Considering the fact that Joseph Gordon-Levitt took all acting, writing and directing roles in this movie, it is quite an impressive work by Joseph Gordon-Levitt. However, this is also why this movie cannot score a high rating from an audience perspective - while he is a fair director and writer, he is definitely not an outstanding one.
The story of Don Jon is complete and well-structured, but it is too flat and really boring, and it lacks a real climax. While the story makes complete sense and also discussed a theme, the theme is a bit common and childish, just like the themes a Disney animation would normally adopt.
2 stars are given as this is overall a watchable movie with a story that makes sense, although it is flat and boring.
