why do people obsess over J-Lo's acting?

I am watching this movie now and enjoying J-Lo in it, I like her understated simplicity. It's similar to her acting in Angel Eyes, which I liked much better, but in Angel Eyes she is stronger and takes control of her situation. Here she is burdened with her past and has a long struggle to regain her sense of self-worth. It's a pleasure to watch her again. Each to his own taste

I think it irks people that she is an awful actress, yet she continues to star in so many movies. Apparently she can get these parts because there are enough idiots willing to watch her "act". And "gonna" is not a real word.

She's god-awful but her acting does run the gamut of emotions from A to B.

I've never thought much of her as an entertainer in general. You can't be critical and not give credit where it's due.
I didn't think she had it in her. Very good in this.

In a movie headlining Redford & Freeman, just about anyone could hang on those coat tails. I do not like Jennifer Lopez, and don't think she has much talent. However, she was fairly good in this. The scene where Redford woke her up to discuss her bf, probably was the worst scene she's ever had in any movie.
I do think she stood tight in this movie and would watch it again.
I love Wyoming. My big bro once had a ranch there and it was heaven.

And today J-Lo performs as..J-Lo.
Great eye candy and not a lot of talent.

I couldn't disagree more. What Lopez does as a performer in the music business and how the media portray her bears little resemblance to the kind of characters she's played in numerous films over the years.
NOW TARZAN MAKE WAR!

Like you said, she can hold her own, i mean i really don't understand why people try to find craps to throw at her. She is a decent actress actuallyi better than some of the '' currently popular'' ones.

Her butt and singing is all she has, unfortunately she doesn't sing in this movie.

I don't mind her acting. I find her watchable. I really liked Enough. It's just that she often mumbles or something, somewhat like Marlon Brando.
I liked JL in this. The little girl was supposed to look like her father and did resemble the picture. Hillary Swank would have also been a good choice for the role of the daughter in law. The daughter looked a bit like the pic of the man and HS.
