Lawrence has done some shitty roles in addition to her awesomeness. that is all I am saying.

Her performances in Silver Linings Playbook and American Hustle were very overrated IMO. She's very hot and a good actress but none of her performances that I've seen her in have been Oscar worthy IMO.

you have to admit, it is a bit of a head scratcher why she did House at the End of the Street and The Devil you Know after Hunger Games and Silver Linings Playbook.

Facepalm if you want, but I totally agree. Silver Linings Playbook was a mess and her performance was weak and unconvincing. Her part in American Hustle was flat and forgettable, outdone and overshadowed by Amy Adams.

Contracts. Any actors first contract usually has a multi-picture obligation and if they hit big with something else with a ton of work left on the obligation meter, it is better to knock the shit out in a hurry. Those crap movies shoot in about 3 weeks and have very little required in terms of promotional needs to take up their now very valuable time. It is just a way for the people that gave the kid the break to reap some benefit of the stardom. Is it fair, maybe, maybe not.

I wouldn't go as far as call her performances weak but people fawn over Jennifer Lawrence like she's a young Meryl Streep. She's not.

HATES was filmed a couple of years before and finally released after she became a hit. The Devil You Know was filmed in 2005 and only released in 2013.

Anybody that actually watched American Hustle and thought Lawrence deserved shit for her role is delusional.
I get that she's the "it" girl and I like her well enough, but there was nothing about her performance that suggested it was Oscar worthy. |

Confession: I've never seen Jennifer Lawrence in anything, except X-Men. She seems wholly unremarkable.

Wow, really? You're missing some good movies, even if you're not seeing them for JLaw. Winter's Bone, American Hustle, Hunger Games 1 & 2, and Silver Linings Playbook are all good to excellent.
