Analysis
Don Juan is a Spanish character known for his casanova attitude towards life. Actor Joseph Gordon Levitt decided to pay tribute to his character in his sweet way, and what a way that was!
‘Don Jon’ is not your regular rom-com. It should be a dark comedy that takes potshots at modern relationships in the crudest way imaginable. It explores every emotion, and yet forces the teens, as well as the middle-aged couples about the way they are heading.
The makers should have put a warning beforehand: This film is NOT for the faint-hearted! Anyone, who has a problem with profanity, or graphic scenes, should skip this film at once. However, if you are ready to face the truth, no matter how awkward you feel, or how disturbing it looks, just go ahead!
Joseph Gordon Levitt, through his character of Don Jon, has hit it out of the park. It took almost 5 years to bring the idea to the screen, but he shows the struggles of a modern man in finding the right person, without being too preachy or over the top. He is provided solid support by Julianne Moore, who is playing the role of a middle-aged student Esther, and Scarlett Johansson, who plays the role of Barbara Sugarman. Oh, did we forget that there’s Brie Larson and Anne Hathaway She must be the most popular one-film-stardom as “ >> Read More... too?
The scenes involving Don Jon’s ‘favorite pastime’ might irk some, and some of the transitions also are not very up to the mark. However, if you are ready to ignore this, ‘Don Jon’ is the surprise package that most of the movie buffs would be impressed with!

Verdict
‘Don Jon’ is a comedy of its kind. It is brash, unapologetic, and borderline sleazy, but does not hesitate from calling a spade a spade either. If you are a fan of something different, something straightforward, this film is for you!
