"...not being a fan of comedy — whether romantic or not, this film and its charismatic & delightful cast won me over and then some...after discovering that Robin (Joseph Gordon-Levitt from The Dark Knight Rises (2012), Premium Rush (2012) & Inception (2010) actually wrote & direct this gem further solidifies my claim this is indeed the #1 Comedy of the Year...being in love w/ his co-star had no bearing in the decision...think: XXX-rated version of Silver Linings Playbook (2012)..." — KONGFUSION©
DON JON (2013) -starring- Joseph Gordon-Levitt & Scarlett Johansson along w/ Julianne Moore, Rob Brown, Glenne Headly, Brie Larson & Tony Danza | Written & Directed by Joseph Gordon-Levitt
SYNOPSIS: Jon Martello (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is a strong, handsome, good old fashioned guy. His buddies call him Don Jon due to his ability to "pull" a different woman every weekend, but even the finest fling doesn't compare to the bliss he finds alone in front of the computer watching pornography. Barbara Sugarman (Scarlett Johansson) is a bright, beautiful, good old fashioned girl. Raised on romantic Hollywood movies, she's determined to find her Prince Charming and ride off into the sunset. Wrestling with good old fashioned expectations of the opposite sex, Jon and Barbara struggle against a media culture full of false fantasies to try and find true intimacy in this unexpected comedy written and directed by Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
