Unrealistic, but great film!


Hollywood is a master at exaggerating street life in cinema. In reality, prostitutes do exist and yes there is some danger, but definitely not with almost every customer as depicted here (knife in the leg, really?). Plus, most customers prefer to be much more discreet and probably order escorts instead of picking up on the street.
That being said, Johns is still a great movie and the acting is superb. It really surprised me when I saw David Arquette, the same guy who was in those silly 90's AT&T ads, take on a dramatic role. He really is a versatile actor.
Great movie, but damn is it sad, I felt like crying at the end.

So Halloween is over? Nope!
