Don Jon might not reach the cumulative impact it desires to achieve, it’s a film that serves a cocktail of sharp entertainment, playful contradiction and occasional brilliance from a first-time director who has something to say about gender study, bodily image obsession and the rom-com cinema culture. All good laugh, yes, but it also leaves us pondering about how the media influences our notions of love, sex and our relationships with others and ourselves. Not bad for a debut film.
