The Greatest Love Story Never Told

This was honestly hilarious. Pairing it with the other 2 flaccid tines of the big comeback - her new album and the visual video that accompanies it - make for a great sk had its good JLO night with your friends. Have some drinks and smokes with your friends and you won't stop cracking up at this.

From her obviously fake PR style narration to the camera, to her attempts to seem real and genuine that are again fake and scripted, to her just wishing Ben could see how beautiful and talented she is, to her attempting to be humble - all of it just falls so so so flat.

Bonus points if you can keep track of how many custom rhinestone and bejeweled water bottles she has throughout the film. We lost count and looked it up just to confirm that yes of course she sells them in her site. Yet again just another curated PR move within this already artificial attempt at drumming up business for her music and movies.

It will make you laugh and cry, but not for the reason they set out to...

I have long viewed Jennifer Lopez, who is an amazing actress and artist, as a bit of a narcissistic diva. In other words, I appreciate her art and talents, but wouldnt want to know her in person. She seems kinda fake, like someone who tries overly hard to project an image of perfection when reality is anything but that (and she confirms that is what she has been doing in the movie), and it makes it hard for the discerning person to like her, trust her, or root for her. This movie, in many ways, confirmed my perceptions of her and the irony was that this was her attempt to let down her guard and be vulnerable, yet it seems like she just can't help but be less than honest. It was funny (in an ironic way) to watch Ben try to call her out on her dishonesty in some respects. It also confirmed to me that they are not in love, nor are they soul mates. All I feel is tension between them, which I have sensed from afar, not infatuation or even love, and certainly not the greatest love story never told. So if my perceptions are correct and she can't see that - if she is unable to face reality because of the stories in her head and the need to control the narrative and her image - it makes me sad for her.

The only shocking part to me was that Ben has a deeply romantic and thoughtful aspect to his personality (in terms of the "bible" he gave her). He has a deep side, which you really don't see in the chatacters he chooses to portray. So it was nice to get a glimpse of that. And I think he genuinely cares about her as a person. But I don't think they are in love.

But their relationship kinda makes sense...a recovering alcoholic/liar pairs with another narcissistic liar (someone who lies to herself, not just others) in an effort to make things appear okay to the outside world. I mean...he didn't even realize their first break up broke her heart until he read the script for this movie. So what do they talk about with each other? Work? The weather? How can a relationship grow when people stay at such a surface level with each other? So I hope for their sakes, they can find the deeper path to honesty at some point. Cause truth truly sets us free.

The overall impression I have gotten from Jennifer Lopez lately is that she thinks we are more enamored with her than we actually are, and I have gotten that impression from her last 2 projects. So maybe she is confusing self-love for self-worship? Cuz they are not the same. So I just pity her more than anything. (Probably not the expectation a famous millionairess would expect from others.) That said, I hope she continues down the path to learning greater self-honesty. This was a step in that direction in some respects so I gave it 5 stars that reason. And I liked seeing her without makeup. Props for that.

Omg that was hilarious and i got so embarrassed on behalf of everyone who knows her..desperation on a narcissistic is not a good look.

She's a bad singer, she's a meh actress she's a great dancer And as a human well she's not good either.

Zero respect to their previous relationships..uncalled for at all ..and Ben omg..i could feel how irritated he was with her And like attempting to do what Prince did...lol seriously???

She's not in the same dimension as Prince.

Imagine ill use my money to make a movie about me...and embaress ppl when they dont want anything to do with this epic embarrassing look at me "documentary "

Probably the worst thing I've ever watched. Jennifer Lopez's acting leaves much to be desired. Stick to music because acting is not for you baby. Jennifer Lopez has to be the most self absorbed monstrosity of a celebrity to think this was even a good idea. I see why so many celebrities turned down being in this "film" Jennifer Lopez is the embodiment of a stomach ache in human form. It's crazy how unlikable and revolting one person can be. All the scenes in this film felt forced and unnatural and felt as if Jennifer Lopez wrote them herself so she could be relevant again and play in her own movie. Save your time, seriously.

Isn't anything sacred, she get back with Ben and has to tell the world my love is better, more shinny than any of you peasants, but I really believe if she had found true love she would want to protect it, I mean the book, this guy was married for many years and had children and your waving this book as if too say "yeah but he loved me all along" wow the the cringing sensation was killing me, The amount of people saying throughout DONT DO THIS but her well published need for attention said I WILL, the scene were she says "my mother was a narcissist" well the apple did not fall far, thats for sure. The scene were they are saying Taylor Swift said no and virtually everyone from the entertainment business said no why would you put that in if this had been a spoof it would have Good but unfortunately its her real ego talking, I have to say I felt sorry for Ben Affleck who is an really talented guy having to pacify his self absorbed wife, while admitting it should be kept private, and what if they split will we be in for the sequel when she meets her next victim, er husband.
