Scarlett Johansson has loads of respect for ‘RHONJ’ Scarlett Johansson attending the 2013 Tiff Movie Competition Crimson Carpet Gala for Don Jon on the Princess of Wales Theatre on Septemin Toronto, Canada. The MCU star borrowed every little thing from her wardrobe to character quirks for the function. Lengthy-running present The Actual Housewives of New Jersey had a significant affect on Johansson throughout the manufacturing of the movie. There have been better films that deal with this subject without getting everything absolutely wrong.Scarlett Johansson knew precisely the place to flip when in want of some New Jersey-flavored inspiration for romantic comedy Don Jon. This narrative is especially damaging when you look at the conclusion, which belittles sex addiction by having Jon end his addiction with free will. Is it a portrayal of women's expectations in general, or is it saying something about Jon's expectations when it comes to sex? It's a very strange narrative, and one that paints women as needy and pessimistic. That, and the relationship between Jon (Gordon-Levitt) and Barbara (Johansson) makes little sense to the rest of the narrative. This is a really strange, unclear connection that doesn't make much sense in the grander scheme of the film.
On top of that the film tries to draw a line between the enjoyment of porn by guys, and the enjoyment of romantic comedies by women. The inclusion of a unique May-December relationship was especially inspired. If it was only about the problems, and pure humanity, of sex addicts (especially within communities full of these Jersey stereotypes) this film would be easy to love. The main problem of the film is that it has a message that is belittled by its inclusion of relationship politics. It has some really great performances from everyone involved: Tony Danza has never been more enjoyable to watch onscreen, Johansson is caustically hilarious, Moore is the best aspect of this entire film, and Gordon-Levitt actually gives a realistic performance as the sweaty, meat headed Jon. There's a lot to love in this dramedy from Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who starred, directed, and wrote this film.
