I still remember one of the first movies of Joseph Gordon Lewitt that I love so much when I was young, Angels in the Outfield, then as a teenager, 10 Things I Hate about You. Who would've thought that this child actor has actually have it takes to maintain longevity in his career not only as an actor but now as an up and coming director.
I only saw the trailer for Don Jon as an accident. I am one of those people who checks out Official Trailers for movies showing this year and incoming years in Youtube. I stumbled upon its trailer and decided to check it out. I was laughing by the end of the trailer and thought, "maybe there is something about this movie worth checking out especially with the plot that the director decided to explore." PORN ADDICTION! Hahaha! Now that is something you don't get to see and watch everyday in the movie theater. I immediately thought bringing some of my closest girlfriends to watch it with me.
The movie starts with a bang! It immediately dives into the world of Don Jon. It didn't missed anything. The script and the acting is so on-point and witty. Plus the actors are so hilarious in the movie especially Tony Danza. This guy is such a comedic genius! His character is tailor- made for him and even try to steal any scene that he is in it. The soundtrack is another highlight. It gives the scene additional character and identity that when you hear it you immediately knew what the lead star is doing. The way the movie is written is simple but one thing that made it great is that it has substance. It went to a deeper level that made you appreciate it more.
I highly recommend this movie be watched amongst friends. To see your friends' reaction is another plus and it makes the whole experience better and more entertaining. I am looking forward to another film from Joseph Gordon Lewitt. Very promising from who I believe is one of the best actors of his generation. Kudos!
Rating: 8/10
