Jennifer Lopez: Halftime

🌹 if you are from the USA say Hi

Film yang bagus!

source: Halftime

A typical celeb documentary, I said this, they did this, I am such a Saint, I have fought all adversities in life and have climbed through them. I have had multiple marriages but everytime it was the man and not me. Sleeping material.

Jennifer Lopez Halftime documentary/movie was like looking through a window and seeing her a lot closer. To see her struggles, her feelings, seeing her working hard for the job and just seeing that she is a human being. Good Job and we'll deserve.

Watching this i got angry, the public has denied this woman so many things, first an Oscar campaign for "Selena" in 1997 just based on the fact that she was Latina. Then again with the "Hustlers" Snub in 2020. Then the NFL and Jay-Z have the audacity to tell her she's going to Headline. Then to make her SHARE the stage with Shakira (Whom i love as well) but its like cmon this woman has been denied so much in her illustrious career give her a damn break!

Wise words from a successful Entertainment Legend. Jennifer Lopez arrives with "Halftime" the answer to all of the negativity and criticisms she's received over the years be it for her being constantly overexposed by Tabloid and Entertainment programs about her personal life, Social media over fabricated lies surrounding her singing career (All of which social media has blown up because lies travel faster then the truth i might add!) Halftime is a story of a woman who after 50+ years on this earth is here to offer some wise words show us what motivates her most (her fans, her family) and spread encouragement to anyone who is in self doubt and in 2022 with so much going on in the world, that's something i can get behind. Loved it!

But aren't the 2020 Oscars over by 2022, so I'm confused, unless it's a story of how she got a nomination. I don't follow the Oscars anymore, so IDK. Yes, we really needed yet another film about strippers. Like Striptease, that other one (even worse), and Coyote Ugly weren't enough? They always are an excuse to be scantily clad and dance, like, well, a *. That she says she did it for the sex workers? Please. I imagine they rather she hadn't. I really thought I might be getting a real documentary, silly me, but this is basically a JLo infomercial, justification for doing the beleaguered Super Bowl in 2020 and the standard politically correct things celebs say for fame and acceptance. I really respect her as an actress, her singing is not my cup of tea (and she wants to show it off by lip-synching in the Super Bowl?), but I was hoping for a real, objective, view into her life. And I got nothing but an infomerical for her acting, singing, and political reasoning, which is flawed. If she wasn't political, then maybe she should have kept quiet or, gasp. Not perform for the NFL during the worst of Trump's treatment of immigrants and NFL players of color. I'm all for social justice, but not when it's used for self-promotion by celebs.

I've watched just about all of these Netflix Artist driven films released in the past couple years (Beyonce, Shawn Mendes, Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga ect) i can honestly say between this film and Taylor Swifts "Miss American" both are equally as great. They give you a glimpse into the artists life that is raw and powerful every artist who gets one of these films is deserving but what Jennifer Lopez did here is inspiring, she's passed 50 (hence the Halftime metaphor) and shows even in the latter part of ones life, it can be just the tip of what you can accomplish.

I was pretty much indifferent when it comes to JLo, I did like her music but I wouldn't call myself a fan. She portrays herself as a victim of misogyny and racism here, even calling herself a person of color. Girl, you could easily pass for a southern european. She's moaning about not getting an Oscar nomination (that movie was so average and you can't act, accept it). Trying to show she was not taken seriously because South Park mocked her (South Park mocks everyone with amazing equality). Complaining people paid too much attention to her butt, an asset that people admired, not ridiculed. The entire documentary is extremely self serving and comes across as whining of someone very privileged.
