Recognizability

Rating: 8/10 (5 January 2014)

Who else than Joseph Gordon-Levitt -one of the most versatile actors of our time- could make his directional debut about a such a controversial subject as a porn addict and make it totally work. Besides directing it he also plays Don Jon, a very macho womanizer who falls in love with Scarlett Johansson. He plays his character in a very funny and tongue in cheek way, but still believable. There are people like that out there and the recognizability of that makes it such fun to watch. I won't give away much more of the plot but I liked Levitt's first authored film a lot. Be warned though that because of the nature of the subject there might be some occasional nudity.
