This movie made me...


not like Bryce Dallas Howard even more! I had seen her in a few other movies and didn't care for her much.. and after seeing this one.. made it even more so for me...I even saw her in Jurassic World and couldn't stand her in that...the 2 characters were very much alike between The Help and JW...I know she is "just acting" but she fits the roles so well of the rich, snobby, snooty, condescending bitch that I bet she IS like that in real life. IMO

Certain actors can play certain types really well. It's like Christopher Walken can play evil, yet he's a very kind person and good person.

Except that he's involved in the mysterious death of Natalie Wood.

Well....JK Simmons often plays bullies and sociopaths but at the Oscars he told kids to call their parents and cried. What you said is ridiculous IMO

ITTA- I've never been a huge fan of hers to begin with but this movie just iced it for me. I really felt like she was overacting.
I've just never seen anything out of her to suggest 'strong leading lady' and I suspect she's gotten as far as she has based on familial association more so than anything.

The actually made me like her more as an actress. To take such aa nasty character on so impressively was... impressive.
