I laughed watching the trailer for Jennifer Lawrence’s “No Hard Feelings,” and, apparently, so did many other viewers. This one might be a hit.
“No Hard Feelings” has become the most-watched trailer for an original comedy in its first 24 hours, with 50M+ views across all platforms.
Maybe it’s because we rarely get these kinds of comedies today. One that couldn’t care less about its audiences feelings and just goes straight for the dirty laughs.
J-Law stars in this R-Rated comedy from Gene Stupnitsky, the writer-director of “Good Boys” — he also wrote “Bad Teacher,” which this movie’s comedic stylings seems to be slightly resemble.
She plays a desperate 30-something woman who is lured into a family’s plan to get her to date and have sex with their shy and college-bound 19-year-old son. The reward is a used car.
I has mentioned earlier this week that it looks like the kind of comedy that would have been made 10 years ago. That’s a compliment. There haven’t been many laugh-out-loud movies the last decade, if any. There’s nothing politically correct about it.
It looks silly, but sometimes that’s more than enough to satisfy our needs.
