Joy(2015) Starring: Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper, Robert De Niro, Dascha Polanco, Edgar Ramírez, Elisabeth Röhm, Virginia Madsen, Isabella Rossellini, Diane Ladd, Jimmy Jean-Louis, Drena De Niro, Madison Wolfe, John Enos III, Erica McDermott, Donna Mills, Allie Marshal, Kristen Annese, Chaunty Spillane, Isabella Cramp, Ariana DeFusco, and Susan Garibotto Directed By: David O Russel Review You know I have a question and the question is this: is Rotten Tomatoes stupid or something? How can the new Star Wars, Age of Ultron, Cinderella, and Goosebumps have a high percentage but not Joy. I love all the movies I just mentioned but I still see Joy as the best one. When I heard it was about I actually laughed and thought it'll be good maybe but it won't be like my favorite film of David O Russel's Silver Linnings Playbook. But surprisingly I was wrong it is just as good. The cast does so well and acts it so seriously with great performances that you get the problem for Joy and her complicated family and you want to see her succeed. It starts off with a narration from her grandmother who is like her best friend and saw great things in her and would always be their for when the going gets tough, you feel how strong their bond is just when their interacting. The pacing is not excellent but manages to stay on the heart of the story but I would have liked to have seen more scenes with Joy and her grandmother and spent more time on that. If your going to watch one last film this year make it this one, it'll bring me great Joy which I'm giving a five out of five.
