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!
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.
First of all I love to watch celebrity or singers documentary but this one didn't give me anything new. Maybe I don't live in USA and because of that I don't feel the meaning what she represents... last 20 mins of the documentary was super politic. I think at a point all celebrities earn too much money and when satisfaction level is full, they start to talk about politics.. This is super normal because they have power... Also I did read some comments about narcissism, guys please be realistic if you want to be superstar in this world you have to be. She is like a perfectionist but he must be also... Anyway i watched this documentary but unfortunately I didn't feel anything, for example I didn't cry or I didn't feel sad at all... also when I realize that end of the day jlo earns million dollars and I write comments here :) so that didn't wake me up or motivate..
If you watch this in June 2022, chances are you're probably aware of all the bad presses/social media hate that JLo has received surrounding this documentary (i.e. "rivalry with Shakira", "crying over Oscars snub"). Let's clarify this right away, all of the negativity was due to dialogues and scenes taken totally out of context for clickbait. Ironically enough, the media and societal treatment to JLo is one of the topics in this documentary, so it really drives home how after nearly 30 years in the business, this absolutely unfair, horrible treatment that people give to this woman remain nearly the same. But that adversity really puts into perspective of how special Jennifer Lopez - JLo - Jenny from the Block is. As it's said in the documentary, people really take her for granted. The documentary is chaotic because it juggles between her music, movie and personal life - but that's expected when you do a documentary about someone who can do it all successfully. One thing the documentary is very successfully at is showing how there's literally nobody else in the business doing what she does at her caliber. The amount of hard work, determination, stamina, strength and talent that it takes to juggles 3 and a half full time careers as a woman is insane. And yet, the industry hasn't been given her the recognition she deserves, and the hate from people that she receives due to misinformation is borderline bullying at this point. After watching this documentary, if you are a fan of JLo, you will grow to appreciate her discipline and drive even more. And if you are a hater, maybe you will take a look at how unfair you have been treating this woman - not everyone needs to be a fan, but one could really give credit where it's due and not fuel the hate.
I can see why most of the reviews here saying Jennifer Lopez is so self absorbed, narcissist and such. But if only you can put yourself in her shoes, being a minority and trying to build herself up in the industry which still is to this day ruled by man I would probably have the same strong headed opinion, thus would make me like a bit**.
And the hour of them all practicing only for good 7 minutes performance took a whole lotta effort which I doubt any of us could easily do it. And mind you she's 50. I have a whole respect to these performers.
Yeah she could be a product, but she still killed it. Hands down.
