Joseph Gordon-Levitt writes, directs and stars in this skewed version of a rom-com that mirrors Don Juan which is aptly titled Don Jon.
Playing a believable body-building porn addcit, JGL portrays deserving confidence in his film-making as well, with a great deal of help from his impressive cast, including a scene-stealing Tony Danza. Some of the language does get pretty colorful and it does show more than it's fair share of porn clips, so it's obviously not your usual rom-com but if you've seen (500) Days Of Summer you'd know JGL steers clear from the usual fluff. Unfortunately it weakens quite heavily by the end, as if he didn't know how to wrap things up but the ride there is enjoyable enough.

If Don Jon had a son he'd be Don Jon's son.
I made myself titter.
