Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

cricketbat I understand why people may like Winter's Bone, but I don't understand why it's nominated for Best Picture. It's an interesting take on film noir, however it just comes out flat and dull. Plus, most of the dialogue is mumbled in monotone, so the story gets lost at times. I was disappointed.

rebeccalucy This can be a very hard film to fully grasp and understand, mostly due to the neo-realistic elements. Granik obviously put a lot of passion into this film and tried to present a strong female protagonist. There are some good elements, like the unique editing and cinematography. It reflects the reality they are trying to present with its overly bleak tone. The setting is so depressing to look at which further draw out the upsetting story and characters. Some of the acting is quite good, particularly Jennifer Lawrence pulling off a difficult accent. However, I feel the plot can sometimes make the film really hard to pay attention to. You really need to pay attention, so the plot and dark nature of the film can make viewers struggle to pay attention. It is definitely not a film for everyone, so I suggest fully researching it before watching.

SlyGuy21 If you're wondering what the first movie I gave this title to is, it's "Blue Velvet". I'm not a huge fan of Jennifer Lawrence. Every movie I've seen her in, I've hated. "American Hustle", "Silver Linings Playbook", and now this. While hate might be too strong of a word, because bored to death fits better. Plot summary: a cardboard cutout of Jennifer Lawrence tries to find out what happened to her dad (the redneck version of Walter White) while a bunch of white trash hillbillies get in her way. Lawrence has no personality, I don't see her as a strong female protagonist at all, she's no Ellen Ripley or Sarah Connor. All the other characters are either total jerks, or don't help her, I hope that sounds interesting to you, because it doesn't change for 100 minutes. This'll more than likely be the last movie with Jennifer Lawrence in it I see. I have what's called a "Three Strike Rule", if I see three movies that I don't like from a director or actor as the main character, I essentially blacklist them and avoid all films involved with them like The Plague. The first director to strike out with me was David O. Russel, the second was JJ Abrams (not for three bad movies though, because "The Force Awakens" was one of the most insulting things I've ever seen). So I guess Jennifer Lawrence is the first actor/actress to get blacklisted by me. If you like this movie, or Jennifer Lawrence as an actress, that's fine, but she's not for me.

mryama_9029 This is the first review I have ever written because i felt that i have to do that. Not much to say about this movie. I saw a good rating in IMDb so i've expected a good movie, "4 nominations for Oscars and first nomination for Lawrence, sounds good", but why? Why its heaven nominated for the Oscars? It lacks any meaningful plot and is painfully slow. Since there was no development in anyone you don't really care and don't really know what matters. No climax at all with the catch "i told you so". I find it difficult to say anything positive about this movie... OK i have something to justify my 3...the not so bad performance by J.Lawrence. To resume, just a waste of time in my opinion
