Based on a real story....please, the only real thing about this movie is that there was a lady who invented a mopping system and sold it on qvc....other than that it is totally made up. None of the "obstacles" that she overcame were real.... including events and persons....now that I know it's all false I understand why it's listed as a comedy.

Painfully Boring, bad slow acting, unbelievable,

Excellent! A story of struggle, extreme adversity and determination. After seeing the awful Silver Linings Playbook, I gave up on J. Law. Couldn't stand her. But her awesome performance in Joy turned my opinion around. Truly a stellar performance!

Started off pretty humorous....then dragged a bit after the climax (or what I though was it)...an attempt at a plot and characters that audience would connect to, but fails....though the main antagonist does manage to get your sympathy and you root for her, you fail to connect fully....

Boring as hell and flat as a pancake. Jennifer Lawrence acts like she has had a lobotomy - robotic and emotionless. Should have been called SAD.

Slow but a good story. Well written and decent acting to boot.

Great flick, happy ending. I can't understand the rating of 2 stars. I figure people are tasteless, comic book movie going, pop music listening, simpletons.

This is NOT a comedy. It's a heavy drama... Some ok acting, very slow moving, at times, and not necessarily a movie that garners my recommendation to even my worse enemy. I would NEVER watch it again and, to me, it's not even worth the DVD rental when THAT becomes available. Too bad SO many GREAT actors in a dark, slow, depressing, movie. It could've been SO much better :-(

Excellent movie. Must see for anyone going into there own business (especially women), in fact anyone that needs motivation in life it is a great movie!!

I wanted to leave the theatre as I felt I was wasting my time. There was no climax to the movie, no humor. I want to be entertained. I already live an ordinary life, I don't need to see it on the big screen.
