Highway to Hell (100%)

Plot: Anyone who fantasizes about becoming a porn star should see Porn Star: The Legend of Ron Jeremy, a cheerful documentary that paints a sympathetic but clear-eyed portrait of the most successfu...( read more read more... )l male porn star of all time. Through remarkably frank interviews with the man himself and a variety of friends and associates (including actresses, rival actors, and directors; porn moguls like Larry Flynt and Al Goldstein; and, most surprisingly, Jeremy's own family), Ron Jeremy emerges as a likeable but self-obsessed guy whose insatiable drive for fame and success is also a struggle to overcome loneliness and a lack of self-worth. Not that anyone's going to feel too sorry for a man who gets paid to have sex, but Jeremy's honesty and sense of humor deserve some respect. And despite all the flesh on display, Porn Star is more matter-of-fact than titillating, taking in its subject with a sociological distance. --Bret Fetzer

    Hollywood kets to dabble into the other side of Hollywood, porno flicks, in this ode to the naughty movies, and one of their stars, the aging Hedgehog himself, Ron Jeremy. Sleazy.

    This was an alright watch. In a way I ended up feeling sorry for the guy for his obsession with becoming more famous. Talk about never being happy with what you've got.

    Whitewashing of Jeremy's shady career. Apparently this guy is not the lovable hedgehog he's portrayed as here if you read anything serious about him (Cinema Sewer has an interesting article on his multiple rape accusations). It's sad how desperately this film and Jeremy himself want to make him a pop culture phenomenom.

    This is a great documentary with an honest view of the porn industry and how one person lands in that world. Ron Jeremy is genuine and sincere in his recollections and opinions - this is a very engrossing film on an industry that society hates and craves with equal passion.

    One of the most interesting and offbeat documentaries I've ever seen. I expected it to be pretty much fluff; a series of visual candy pieces woven together without substance, riding on the exotic allure of a docu on porn. But it's the opposite. This isn't just a documentary on Ron Jeremy, the most loved/hated male porn star, it's about the man inside the label of 'Porn Star'. Featuring several interviews with his friends and associates, you get a deeper understanding of this very ordinary man. Some people love him, some abhor him. But underneath all the controversy, he's just a normal chap, with all the insecurities of the everyday man. And this docu brings that out perfectly.

    He shows some of his craziest talents from back in the day. This movie/doc kinda showed you who he was and who he WANTS to be. You already get all the chicks Ron, what else do you want?!
