Movie review Follow me https://moviecriticforyou.wordpress.com

Rating: 7/10 (14 April 2016)

Jennifer Lawrence has the lead role in the movie Joy, in which she really showcased her talent and skill. Her character faced the many ups and downs that came with being a single mother still involved with her ex husband and a dysfunctional family. While Jennifer Lawrence tended to make the same small facial expressions and mannerisms that are typical of her in all her movies, her acting really did help make this movie better. With that being said, her role as a stress-induced mother was played very well.
Robert De Niro and Bradley Cooper both played their parts well, adding their own unique story to the plot. While I had no preconceived notions about how good Joy would be, I was glad to come out of the movie satisfied. Despite a handful of dull parts, the story was good and the movie did really well bringing everything together in the end. It really emphasized the stressfulness of life and the everyday hardships one goes through. By the end of the movie I had a better understanding the difficulties of persevering and doing everything on your own. The hardships she had to endure and overcome led me to rooting for her to come out on top. All in all, the cast really helped push the message across and made the movie even better movie.
