Julia Roberts... - Charlie Wilson's War (2007) Discussion

[–] marcellis_robinson 14 years ago

Not only was her hair atrocious, but so was her acting. She is a self-indulgent, narcisistic celebrity that really turns me off with her ham acting. It seems like she was trying to play her character like Erin Brokovich, and for that matter I didn't think she really deserved an Oscar for Brokovich. When acting she doesn't seem to understand the meaning of subtlety, because in her mind it's all about her.

Other than Roberts, I really liked this movie.

The funny thing about her accent is that she's originally from Georgia .... she really is a bad actress, and I've thought so ever since Pretty Woman and Mystic Pizza came out 20 years ago. Lame movies for mediocre people!

She was attempting to sound like a Texan, not a Georgian.

Marcellis...I agree. She is an AWFUL actress......and has been so from as far back as Mystic Pizza, that LOUSY DUMB TRASH "Pretty Woman", and "Steel Magnolias" all the way to today. Her southern accent in this film, supposedly a Texas one (I lived there for 3 years...and it doesn't sound authentic at all) sounds just like the accent she used in Steel Magnolias.

...looked like a cartoon character...her hairstyle was atrocious.

I did a web search for pictures of the real person JR portrayed; trust me, cartoon character was the way to go.

I don't get why she hasn't used the lash comb attached to her brow comb, and used a safety pin to seperate her lashes.

So weird :S

I don't understand why you would use a sharp object near your eye, when there's a perfectly good tool made for that available everywhere, risk free and gets the job done so much quicker.
This is like combing your hair with a skewer.
But whatever works for you I guess...

Once you put the mascara on, the lil brush becomes useless because it gets sticky, the brush is more usefull for the eyebrows =)

No I mean the comb part behind the brush. It works!

Im not a fan of Julia Roberts but she did an excellent job and was worthy as Erin Brokovich also.

If you pathetic females are done cat fighting over her looks being a close true representation of the woman she played and actually still apply so much goop you call mascara to your eyelasses and comb through with a large diaper pin, you deserve to have your eyes taken out.

What pathetic unattractive prehistoric cows you all are.

How de-evolved and primitive creatures you are, no better than for milking and breeding like common bottom feeders.

Ridiculous accent from a terrible actress who effortlessly wrecks movies and people's lives.
