Dont be too hasty - it definitely worth a watch - saw at Manchester Trafford and i really enjoyed it. Heard lots of people with positive comments too on the way out. JGL was excellent and the other characters were good too - maybe not to everyone's taste - a bit like Filth but i would recommend giving it a go.

Solid 6.5/10 from me.

No positve comments from anyone leaving the cinema in Edinburgh. No hilarious laughter during it either only a few titters!!! (Pun intended! )

Lots of laughter heard in Manchester last night, overall I just about enjoyed it.

There were some great performances from the 3 main stars and good to see Tony Danza and Glenne Headley (brilliant in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels all those years ago)

Plenty of nice comic moments, but I agree there was far too much nudity and pornography (maybe deliberate because of the character's addiction) but I guess if there had been much less the film would have only have been about 60 minutes! 6.5/10

Saw this last night in Wandsworth (approx 70% full). Joseph Gordon-Levitt played a shallow, sex-obsessed, porn-addicted stud and at first I wondered whether this was my sort of film. However, when it got going it was actually very funny and at the same time touching watching him learn that even if a girl is a “perfect 10” it isn’t the be-all and end-all. I absolutely loved the confessional scenes whereby all of the preceding week’s gratuitous sex and porn were simply wiped away. Also loved Jon’s sister – who spent the entire film texting until right at the end when she had a couple of profound lines. Scarlett Johansson very much reminded me of Karen Lynn Gorney in Saturday Night Fever as someone who thinks they are so much better than everyone else when actually it’s the other way round. Julianne Moore was very touching as the lonely widow befriended by Jon.

A well-written, well-produced and well-acted film – a pleasant surprise. The beauty of going to these screeners is that because we don’t choose the films we therefore end up going to many films that we wouldn’t originally choose to go and see – and are often pleasantly surprised. This one fits that billing exactly. My score 7/10

I saw it in Trafford as well and it was extremely well received by the audience...heaps of laughter and groans during the 'ickier' parts. I also heard a LOT of praise on the way out.

I saw it with my Niece and Nephew and we all enjoyed it immensely. I've been a big JGL fan since Brick and Mysterious Skin...he's a phenomenally talented young man and also seems extremely warm and charismatic during interviews. I thought the casting of Tony Danza was a genius move and he played the loud, opinionated, buffoonish Italian-American Father with aplomb. ScarJo was also far less grating than she has been in the past (odd, considering she played a stereotypical Jersey Jewish Princess.)

7/10
