Don Jon (2013) (original) (raw)

Jon Martello objectifies everything in his life: his apartment, his car, his family, his church, and, of course, women. His buddies even call him Don Jon because of his ability to pull "10s" every weekend without fail. Yet even the finest flings don't compare to the transcendent bliss he achieves alone in front of the computer watching pornography. Dissatisfied, he embarks on a journey to find a more gratifying sex life, but ends up learning larger lessons of life and love through relationships with two very different women.

Review by Brian Orndorf, September 26, 2013

7 / 10

Making his feature-length filmmaking debut, Joseph Gordon-Levitt has selected a fascinating topic to build a picture around. Inspecting a man addicted to internet pornography while keeping his life in meticulous order, Gordon-Levitt threatens to make a Very Special Movie, teaching the audience about the ills of objectification and all its temptations. Mercifully, �Don Jon� doesn�t elect that approach, instead providing a fresh view of an age-old weakness, updating the prowl of the New Jersey Guido to include technological woes that match all the pumped-up macho concerns.
