A good watch that makes you explore

Rating: 8/10 (12 February 2014)

I'm a woman and I think this movie deserves more stars than it got on here. I gave it an 8. It takes an objective look at the relationship between a person and porn. Porn can indeed be an addiction. It's just like smoking when you want to feel good- once you're used to it, you can't give it up even if it affects your relationships.
I don't think porn is ultimately bad, neither does this movie probably. The movie does make a point that good sex brought by a good relationship can be much better than porn and can replace porn...It depends on how you think about it: The main character likes porn more than real sex. Is that a problem, a bad thing? This movie takes a side slightly saying yes, but it doesn't push it down your throat. You can explore.
Overall, I liked the movie. It made me think about this whole porn thing and expectations from sex in general. Joseph Gordon-Lewitt did a nice job, so did Scarlett Johansson. You can watch Scarlett here acting as a slightly vicious character and that's a change. Julianne Moore did great as the older woman who is troubled but charming. A good watch.
