I was pleasantly surprised by how good this movie was. First, it’s R-rated for a reason, so don’t get caught off guard by that. If you can’t handle a man talking about masturbation and porn, then definitely stay away from this movie. However, if that doesn’t bother you, then get ready to laugh – because there are lots of funny lines and situations in this movie.
Basically, this is a movie about how a man might view sex. It’s incredibly honest and doesn’t hold back. But a word to women: this is obviously an extreme case, so don’t be fooled into thinking this is what all men think about. It isn’t. But it’s what most men think about, at least sometimes.
Two things that I really appreciated about the movie was how it went in unexpected directions. I’m not going to say where it goes, but I didn’t see it coming. Secondly, going into the movie I had my reservations because it’s less than an hour and a half long, not including the credits. Usually short movies like that sacrifice character development — or plot, or something else — in order to be so short. Not this film. The pacing was snappy. It moved right along and gave us exactly what the audience needs to see and nothing else. At the end I wasn’t left wanting more.

Run pee is the best app for people who find themselves needing to pee a lot but also not wanting to miss any action. The app gives you the best times to use the bathroom during a movie while also telling you when to leave and which lines to listen for! It not only gives you the time you should go pee, but it also explains to you what is happening during the break. I helped I use this app every time I go to the movies now. My god father recommended this app to 5 years ago and it’s been in my phone ever since! Highly recommended.

About The Peetimes: Both peetimes are good and plenty long, but I’d personally recommend using the second peetime. It has a lot of short scenes that are very easy to summarize.
There are no extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of Don Jon. (What we mean by Anything Extra)
Buy the movie from Amazon.com on DVD or Blu Ray
Creator and developer of the RunPee app. When something doesn’t work right in the app it’s pretty much his fault. 🙂
Aspiring author. Would like to finish his “Zombie Revelations” trilogy if he could break away for working on RunPee and the cottage he’s building for RunPee Mom.
