Passengers wasn’t bad but you could have plugged any attractive female into the role. And many not so attractive that would have done a better acting job. Mother sucked though.

Writers of great movies should be considered the real stars.

So these women should just take the money and run. If the world was more just, most of these chicks would be working as a pizza waitress.

>>The A-list actress’ recent stumbles with ‘Red Sparrow,’ ‘mother!’ and ‘Passengers’ are no reason to gloat. The death of the movie star is bad news for everyone in Hollywood.

<<

Part 1 is 100% false. Part 2 is 100% true but refer to Part 1.

Travolta was awesome in Swordfish.

And Pulp Fiction.

Don’t know why this author dissed Travolta so hard.

Saw the preview for Red Sparrow. It looked totally ridiculous. Sometimes it’s not the actress has gone bad it’s that she’s in a crappy vehicle.

Jennifer Lawrence, dropped out of school at 14, yet knows everything. Personally, I have no use for any movie she is in past, present, future.

Ryan Gosling is pretty good. I like Vince Vaughn because he’s pro-gun and isn’t afraid to say it and boy did his career drop after that. Morton Downey Jr has some good acting chops.

Anybody can open a good movie. The stinker retreads, of which Red Sparrow is certainly one, not so much.

Like many Hollywood stars, I just find her expressions and performances to be wooden.

"Passengers," quite frankly, was not that good of a movie. It was OK, but not great. And "Mother" may have been the worst movie I've ever seen. I turned it off about 2/3rds of the way through.

The bottom line is that Jennifer Lawrence is a good looking young woman who is an average actress who picks bad scripts.

For ten year, probably longer, our household’s interest in anything Hollywood produces has been next to zero. Star Wars and a few animated kids movies are all we pay to see. I’ve even tried to watch network TV programming so I’d have something to discuss with the non-readers in the family. But it always has an unrealistic leftist slant to it - like stoic women saving the day when a weak man couldn’t.

>>Hollywood had effectively written him off, perhaps unconvinced he was all that big a star to begin with. But one director, who was just beginning to make his name, had faith, and when he came to make his second feature, he chose Travolta for the most important role. That director, of course, was Quentin Tarantino; the feature was 1994’s Pulp Fiction; and with it, Travolta was back on top, raking in $20 million per movie and sealing his place in the pantheon.

His connections to Scientologists has probably helped. Also rumors of a gay sexual underground.

What’s the career window for a run of the mill “movie star”? Ten years maybe? She’s on the back nine.

Read the comments on THR to this article.
They are scathing—and much better than the article itself.

Jennifer Lawrence has a great rack.
That’s it.
She’s just not that good at playing pretend.

Could it be, she’s gotten her position by lying on her back for old powerful men, not by acting talent? Perhaps?

I really have never understood how she is top talent, everything I have ever seen her in, she has to me, basically 3 facial expressions as far as I can tell, and that’s it.

Where are the family oriented movies like the Lord of the Rings trilogy and Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe series? No political messages in them and the whole family can watch and be entertained and big name "stars" take a back seat to plot. These films never get a glance from "the Academy."

Filling movies with sex scenes, filthy language, using actors who preach leftist politics to us, climate change-the sky is falling messages keep us at home and away from theaters. The list of actors/actresses boycotted should make them unemployable, but Hollywood persists in hiring them and losing money every time. Investors should be very angry, but they appear to be hellbent on losing money and putting out crap no one will pay to see. Even streaming, the delete key is our friend.
