    Joy

    Great movie - unusually done. It has been interesting to see the contrasting reviews for this movie, including some complaints about bad acting by Lawrence and Cooper. I think those viewers have missed the deliberate style in which this movie has been done. I don't know what you really call that style, but it's a kind of melodramatic soap opera style with sudden wide eyed, very still, staring expressions, accompanied by dramatic music to change the pace. It's a little cartoon like in that respect, but it is an interesting and unusual approach. It gives the movie a certain captivating sardonic humour - making a soap opera while mocking soap operas. If you can handle the approach, you'll love it. If not, it will likely grate on you.
