Don Jon

Rating: 7/10 (4 October 2013)

I actually give this movie a 7.5. This was a good movie. I am one of JGL's fan girls and think he is the cutest dumpling ever so I see most movies with him in it. I hoped to love this movie but ended up just solidly liking it. The acting is excellent, the story is good and it was funny. The ending was a little bit of a surprise to me but I liked it.
Reading some reviews I can see some people are confused and didn't get it. The movie doesn't condone watching porn all the time, on the contrary it is a lesson about how porn and romantic comedies and the media in general give girls and guys certain ideas about relationships that are untrue. If you think the movie trumpets sleaze then you didn't understand the movie. It was original, charming and I was pleased with it. I certainly hope that JGL continues to write and direct and of course show that cute face of his in many more movies to come.
