That was Jennifer Lawrence!?!?!

Rating: 7/10 (2 February 2014)

This movie was pretty much what I expected. Bradley Cooper did okay and Chris Bale brought more depth to his role than anticipated. The pacing lagged a bit at times but there are times when it is difficult to keep a high pace throughout a movie. What was really a great performance was by Jennifer Lawrence. I couldn't believe it was her. I saw her in Hunger Games and that did little to allow her to spread her wings. What a wonderful future this young girl has. Hunger Games was OK for the kids I guess and it would be difficult for anyone to rise above the tripe that franchise espoused. I couldn't get by one hour of the first one! It was also entertaining watching Louis CK keep a straight face!!! He must have been exercising EXTREME restraint!!! Jeremy Renner was also awesome!!! I would recommend this movie B+
