À propos de ce film

A New Jersey guy dedicated to his family, friends, and church, develops unrealistic expectations from watching porn and works to find happiness and intimacy with his potential true love.

Notes et avis

A really good movie, throw out your expectations and you will see more than just a guy addicted to porn. If blockbustee movies are great novels this is that novelette you can read for free online. Few characters with repetitive/small scale setting (i.e. apartment, dining room) and good performance by Scarlett Johansson and Julianne Moore. Hope JGL and HitRecord create more films.

Very well directed, but poor handling of the second half ultimately made this a bit of a time-waster. Basically, the script totally forgets how to handle a hero's journey halfway through, and leaves things to just sort of fall into place. The one moment of satisfaction (singing in the car) is cut short, and the curious final church scene is left hanging.

(Warning spoilers - isn't much to give away with this movie, but below is the entire plot so just fyi spoilers )Some people love it. To me (Just my own opinion), movie didn't have any real point other than scarlet Johansson will leave you if you watch porn, and you will end up with someone that could be your mom. So moral of the story. Porn. Not even once. Or cougars will find you.
