What did you think of J.Lo's 'Boy Next Door'? Time to play Monday Morning Movie Critic -
The tables were turned this weekend on Jennifer Lopez. While the multi-hyphenate entertainer has been making her living lately as a judge on Fox's tuneful reality-show stalwart "American Idol," the nation's movie critics were the ones playing judge this past weekend.
Lopez's psychological thriller "The Boy Next Door" -- which she stars in and executive-produced -- landed in theaters nationwide on Friday, and she could only stand by and watch as critics' verdicts were delivered. It must have been an uncomfortable weekend for her.
Box-office wise, "The Boy Next Door" performed up to expectations, earning some $15 million in its initial frame. That was good enough for it to finish atop all new releases, even if it was far short of challenging the $64.4 million earned by "American Sniper" in its second week of release.
Critically, though, it was a far different story. Not only did Lopez's film notch a lowly 11 percent approval rating based on 80 reviews compiled by Rotten Tomatoes, but reviews regularly included such adjectives as "shameless," "abysmal" and "uninspired" (along with such nouns as "junk," "dreck" and "hot mess of a train wreck").
Now's your chance to weigh in and play Monday Morning Movie Critic. Did you see "The Boy Next Door" over the weekend? If so, what did you think? Are the critics being too hard on her -- or are they not being hard enough?
