I felt uneasy, and at times almost sick, but in a way that snuck up on me, and to me that is a sign of good filmmaking, this is a film that can only be described as harrowing.
Joy (2015) review
Joy ends up feeling like a sad imitation of a David O. Russel movie, there are so many ideas and emotions floating around that everything ends up a chaotic, disorganized mess. Jennifer Lawrence's performance almost saves it all, it shows that even when she's given a bad script she can still reign superior in her mighty throne. All hail Queen Lawrence.
