New thing today, watched Don Jon (2013). It was NOT what we expected, which was kind of neat. There was quite a bit of talk about porn, a bit more than we were expecting, but not overly porn-y. There were a lot of weird funny awkward moments. Plus the accents and the characters were entertaining as well.
Overall I wouldn't call it one of my favorite movies, but possibly one that has a few things that stick in your brain. There are some scenes which show how superficial his life is and what a mis-match things are at times. It also shows very human characters and it's not too indy and not too commercial, which is nice. I hate overly "independent" bizarre movies.
It's a movie about Jon and his evolution through love and life and finding love and what really matters. If you like the typical JGL you might be a little turned off by this character, but I was fine with it. Scarlett and Julianne did a FABULOUS job in this movie. I thought they were great characters and it was a good contrast to help Don find himself.
Not bad, but not a favorite either. I'd give it a… 7 out of 10. Cheers! Here's a trailer :)
