	Author	Review
United States	Peter Debruge Variety	"An endearingly masturbatory look at how a culture of objectification erodes our capacity for intimacy"	POS
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"A bruisingly funny, bracingly smart comic dare that marks a stellar feature directing and writing debut for Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who plays Jon with humor, heat and sneaky heart. (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)"	POS
United Kingdom	Jeremy Kay The Guardian	"A fun, occasionally flabby romp that should find its audience. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Todd McCarthy The Hollywood Reporter	"The addiction is to porn, with often crude and blunt results that will likely appeal to like-minded boys and young men. (...) Frustratingly one-dimensional"	NEU
United States	Rex Reed The New York Observer	"He (Gordon-Levitt) can act, and there’s a possibility he can also direct, but there’s no evidence in 'Don Jon' that he can do both at the same time. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of four)"	NEU
United States	Manohla Dargis The New York Times	"[A] deceptively sincere movie about masculinity and its discontents that Mr. Gordon-Levitt, making a fine feature directing debut, shapes into a story about a young man's moral education."	POS
United States	Claudia Puig USA Today	"Johansson gives one of her best performances (...) Tony Danza and Glenne Headly are hilarious as Jon's parents. Gordon-Levitt proves he can act, write and direct with equal dexterity. (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)"	POS
