Good Uplifting Plot

Rating: 8/10 (30 December 2015)

Originally I wasn't expecting much from this film considering its the same cast and director as Silver Lining Play book, but was pleasantly surprised.
The Film is based on a women called Joy (Jennifer Lawrence) who struggles throughout her life, raising her 2 children and being a single mother. Despite help from her father (Robert De Niro), who by the way lives in her basement with her ex-husband, Joy cannot hold down a job to keep a roof over the heads of all the people living in her home.
Neil Walker (Bradley Cooper) gives Joy her big break by selling a mop that she designed on his television shopping channel (QVC). Despite the set backs that Joy receives perfecting her invention from family, friends and even business partners, she never gives up and shows determination even when the odds are stacked against her.
A good film that shows hard work pays off in the end and worth a watch.
