Review of Porn Star: The Legend of Ron Jeremy (2001) by Moviestar M — 19 Apr 2007

One of the most interesting and offbeat documentaries I've ever seen. I expected it to be pretty much fluff; a series of visual candy pieces woven together without substance, riding on the exotic allure of a docu on porn.

But it's the opposite. This isn't just a documentary on Ron Jeremy, the most loved/hated male porn star, it's about the man inside the label of 'Porn Star'. Featuring several interviews with his friends and associates, you get a deeper understanding of this very ordinary man.

Some people love him, some abhor him. But underneath all the controversy, he's just a normal chap, with all the insecurities of the everyday man. And this docu brings that out perfectly.
