No Hard Feelings review: Jennifer Lawrence carries a raunchy comedy that isn't raunchy enough
A delivery driver desperate for cash accepts a Craigslist ad from a couple seeking someone to date their painfully awkward teenage son.Lawrence is the main attraction and the reason the film works when it does. She’s so committed to the part that she makes this sometimes abrasive, sometimes confounding character utterly beguiling. The film gives Maddie a few psychological backstories to explain away her behavior.
Roth’s Percy is the romantically chaste type. He keeps resisting Maddie’s attempts to seduce him. Hence, Roth’s part is rather tricky; he has to plausibly act as if he’s not interested in Jennifer Lawrence. Still, he pulls it off with a sweet disposition that makes Percy’s awkwardness believable, even attractive. The rest of the characters are there to either act as sounding boards for Lawrence or to set the plot in motion and then vanish.
