The movie is about a guy living in New Jersey who comes from an average family, works as a bartender, has a great apartment and car, supportive friends, and gorgeous face/body. Only problem is he watches porn like people play video games or watch TV. In fact he hasn't seen a movie in a long time. His world is turned upside down when he meets the unattainable Scarlett Johannsson. Not only does she not fall for his player ways, but she makes him a better person. His world is further complicated by the awkward Julianne Moore. While Scarlett is his dream girl, Julianne is his worst nightmare. In the end these two women affect him more than he even thought he could be affected.
ScarJo was perfect for this role. JGL directed himself in a cult classic and Tony Danza playing his dad Jon Sr. is perfect. The cast, writing, and directing was amazing.
This is such a good movie. There are times when actors TRY directing and fail miserably (I'm talking to you, Madonna). But sometimes they get it right (*waves at Ben Affleck*). This is another instance where it's right. JGL needs to keep directing, and keep making quality films.
4 stars out of 5.
