Jennifer Lawrence film on Netflix called one of the year’s “great comedies”

No Hard Feelings starring Jennifer Lawrence has topped the Netflix film chart in the US.

Directed by Gene Stupnitsky (Jury Duty), the raunchy comedy follows 32-year-old Uber driver Maddie (Lawrence) who answers an advert to date a shy 19-year-old called Percy (Andrew Barth Feldman) in order to boost his confidence before college.

The film released in cinemas in June and faced mixed reviews, with some questioning the age gap between the two lead characters.

No Hard Feelings has since arrived on Netflix US as of Sunday (October 22), where it has topped the streaming platform’s film chart after two days (October 24).

“A breath of fresh air to see Jennifer Lawrence do something light and different,” one viewer wrote on X. “No Hard Feelings is fun, charming and easy to like. But newcomer Andrew Feldman stole the show. Anyways, Netflix viewers will love this movie.”

Another wrote: “In a year of great comedies, this one really stands out to me. It’s nice to be reminded why Jennifer Lawrence is a star and Andrew Barth Feldman keeps up.”

“This movie I watched on Netflix today. It was so good I’m watching it again tonight. No Hard Feelings 20/10 romcom,” another added. You can check out more reactions below.

No Hard Feelings was a modest success at the box office, grossing $87.1million worldwide against a budget of $45million.

Other cast members include Laura Benanti, Natalie Morales, Scott MacArthur and Matthew Broderick.

Lawrence previously discussed the film’s nude beach scene in an interview with Variety, where she said she didn’t give the moment “a second thought”.

“Everyone in my life and my team is doing the right thing and going, ‘Are you sure? Are you sure? Are you sure?'” Lawrence said. “I didn’t even have a second thought. It was hilarious to me.”
