Depends on what you wanted

Rating: 4/10 (27 December 2015)

Taken right from this pages trivia: "Annie Mumolo's original script featuring the story of the Miracle Mop was based upon a real person: Joy Mangano, an Italian-American inventor and entrepreneur known for inventions such as the self-wringing mop" This is not anything about that! Instead you'll see a alleged amalgam of strong women woven into a sort of Cinderella sells her mop story. With evil henchmen, a jealous half sister, and kind of a nasty wealthy Stepmother.
Ruined it for me, knowing the real story, and liking the real story of Joy Mangano.
Just an excuse to make another movie starring JLAW and Bradley Cooper IMHO.
It's not bad, but it's just a rehash of David O's favorite movie formula. Take characters out of an insane asylum and put them in a family in a movie.
In the real world Joy was an instant success! She set records the very first time she appeared on TV with the highest sales ever prior to that. So 9/10ths of this movie is made up dramatic crap. There literally was no struggling, whatsoever! From poor housewife to millionaire overnight!
