Synopsis

Jon Martello objectifies everything in his life: his apartment, his car, his family, and women. His buddies even call him Don Jon because of his ability to pull “10s” every weekend without fail. Yet even the finest flings don’t compare to the transcendent bliss he achieves alone in front of the computer watching pornography. Dissatisfied he embarks on a journey to find a more gratifying sex life, but ends up learning larger lessons of life and love. Crass, funny, and startlingly sincere, Gordon-Levitt’s chemistry with costars Scarlett Johansson and Julianne Moore ignites the screen with heat and emotion.
