I've only seen her in the first Hunger Games and Winter's Bone.

I've seen her in most of the movies FMB! mentioned (minus American Hustle and HG2) and I don't think she lives up to the ChiefsPlanet hype either.

I haven't seen her in American Hustle.

I wasn't a big fan of Silver Linings Playbook. But not sure how you can walk out of that movie and not think she was absolutely convincingly batshit crazy. Contrast that with Winter's Bone where she plays a really subdued character. Nice to see an up and coming actress with that kind of range.

I think what I've liked about her so far is there are no gimmicks. It feels effortless. Maybe that's why her acting can seem too simple for some.

I really enjoyed her in Winter's Bone. Thought she did well in that. But I honestly thought her role in Silver Linings Playbook was unconvincing.

She does seem very honest about herself. I want to hump her in real life, and think she'd be one of very few celebs that would be really fun to hang out with. I get that she puts a lot into her characters. I just thought that SLP and American Hustle were 2 of her weakest roles.

To each his own Fish, but your assessment of her in SLP is ludicrous. She freakin won the Oscar, dude.

Meh. I've never put much into celeb popularity awards.

If the Oscar were a popularity award, Leo DiCaprio would have several.

If there is anyone on this board that I completely respect when it comes to movies it is FMB. However, I have to ask, you liked the Hunger Games? I thought they were a mess, especially the first one.

Thanks for the compliment.

Enjoyable, yes. Groundbreaking or remarkable, no. The 2nd was better than the first. I haven't watched either of them since seeing them in the theater, and probably won't.

Don Jon.

I don't understand what I was supposed to fake away from this movie.

Heh.... It has a 81% rating on rotten tomatoes. That's why I don't really trust ratings on that site.

Watched Enders Game. Not bad but had a lot of plot holes and nonsensical things.

Also finished Gravity. While its a good movie, its also overrated imo. If it wasn't for the fact that the visuals are eye porn, it wouldn't that good of a movie.
