Comment
A young woman (Jennifer Lawrence) from a dysfunctional family invents a new mop and goes thrrough the ups and downs of the commercial world. Despite a very good cast this film is disappointing, mainly due to the poor script writing, which means the actors are unable to demonstrate their skills. It is more like a condensed soap opera. Jennifer Lawrence is good, particularly in the scenes where she is selling the mop she invented on the television shopping channel.
