Is the bloom off the rose for JLaw?

I thought that all of the critics were dragging the movie, but praising her performance?

The O'Russell / Lawrence / Cooper / Di Niro combo is TIRED and needs to be STOPPED.

That's basically what most of the reviews say.

It looks like the same thing as American Hustle basically. I don't see any interest in the film.

finally, the hype is dying down, it was ridiculous

Looked boring to me. Not a fan of Russell's work.

"Serena" and now this

This isn't looking too good for her lately, between these two and Mockinjay's mixed reviews/box office

I'm not worried tho', she'll bounce back with the new Aronofsky and Passengers.
She just needs to stop doing movies with Cooper

I hope this is the end of this overhyped J.Law era of movies.

but she is still getting glowing reviews for her performance though

"Serena" was good...I liked that movie. I didn't expect it to end like it did, I love it when a movie shocks me.

"Joy" looks interesting as well, and has a fantastic cast...I'll be watching it.

Yes please. She said she wants to work with O'Russell for the rest of her life
