Jennifer Lopez as an Actress


Most of you guys probably hate her in this category but I always defended her acting skills. I think she's so underrated. Call me mad but she's even one of my favorite actresses.

My favorite films are "Blood and Wine" (1996), "Anaconda" (1997), "Selena" (1997), "The Cell" (2000), "Enough" (2002), "An Unfinished Life" (2005), "Parker" (2013)

"Enough"...girls power,baby...i didn't saw the others,but i will check them...thanks๐Ÿ˜‰

Thanks for it. Most people don't even watch her films, they just bash her for everything but again, my taste always was a bit weird, so please, do not expect much from these films!

Just like Milla's movies...

I think she is adequate in more recent stuff like Shades of Blue, a little rocky on older stuff. She always acts like Jennifer Lopez and doesn't have the ability to disappear into a character the way great actors do. Do people usually hate on her?

reply

Yes dear, I've read tons of hateful comments about her acting. Moder-day Hollywood is full of overrated actors who can't act well. Jennifer can act better than some of our modern so-called "superstars"

Actress?? Mmmmmm. Haven't seen any of those "classics", so to be fair I can't really comment on her acting "skills". She does have a nice butt though.

I hear she was really good in Gigli despite its 2.4 IMDB rating and 7% RT rating.

I'm a huge J.Lo fan but she didn't even try to act in "Gigli". This is the only Lopez movie I really hate.

reply


You have a lot of company there. Why do you think she didn't even try to act? That seems odd.

At the beginning of her career I think she skated by primarily on being good looking, not a great actress. The first few things I saw her in didn't really make her a must see and the films she lead later didn't look interesting to me so I never took my time to watch them. My opinion hasn't changed much because I havn't bothered to watch much for many years.

No hate here!
General answer: I like her in most things ive seen her in and think shes got acting chops.
Guy answer: Shes smoking hot (face and bod...Good God!!) a very good actress, so-so singer and rich and famous by her own hard work...whats not to like

reply

The Cell and Out of sight were good.
Sheโ€™s not a particularly bad actress by any means, but nothing special either.
