Julianne's acting surprised me.


She actually did quite well. She was pretty damn moving in that intense scene between her and her father at the church.

They say you should save your crazy for later... That's one idea I've always had trouble grasping.

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

She's about as good of an actor as Jennifer Lawrence or Kristen Stewart

It's her voice......it isn't meant for the big screen. It just doesn't work. I love her though.

reply

I agree, something about her voice. Too whiny sounding maybe...

reply

How is Jennifer Lawrence a bad actress?

And I don't care what the rap music people say... Marijuana is just WRONG.

reply

Agree

And K Stewart is a very good actress also.

Disregard Twilight.


reply

reply


Yeah, she did an amazing job with her fake crying scene.

When you can't beat out kristen stewart for a role... you are a bad actress


Horrible in xmen and she looks horrible in the hunger games

Julianne is so beautiful.

reply

So what she is so beautiful big deal. Does that mean we should all bow down and worship her.

reply

No one said that, dude... I just said she did a pretty good job in the movie and the person above you said she was gorgeous.

Don't get all dramatic on us. lol.

Omgosh! I open my mouth and a little purse falls out!

reply

She did a terrible job in the movie. The girl cannot act her way out of a paper bag. People think she can because she is so pretty ( rolling my eyes)

Wake up

reply

Yes you're a much better actor. Wait...what movies have you been in?

Utah! Get me two.

Country singer JULIANNE HOUGH has reportedly been ordered to take acting classes to secure her role in the upcoming FOOTLOOSE remake.

The pretty blonde - a regular on TV show Dancing With The Stars - is said to be in negotiations to take on the part Lori Singer played in the 1984 Kevin Bacon film, alongside Gossip Girl actor Chace Crawford.

But New York Post PageSix reports the star has yet to sign a contract with Paramount movie bosses, who have insisted she improve her acting abilities before they commit her to the role.

A source tells the publication, "(Her audition) was so bad, the producers sent her off to take acting classes.

reply

your a *beep*

being that they agreed to hold off on other actors if she took up some lessons prove that she is better than you believe

reply

Wrong. people thought she did a good job because she did a good job. she is far better than lori singer

reply

Better than Lori Singer that's the best laugh I have heard in years

reply

I don't know what movies you all have seen, but I've seen some BAD acting and some BAD movies...and considering this was her first "starring" role, she wasn't half bad! People should cut her some slack.



reply

You said it better than I could have, lei3. Her performance wasn't the best of 2011 by ANY means, but like you said... It was her very first role. For a first-time actress, she was pretty damn good.

Omgosh! I open my mouth and a little purse falls out!

reply

I think that Julianne Hough did a pretty decent job with her first leading role.

reply

I thought Hough was one of the best things about this movie. (That sounds like a real back-handed compliment...don't mean in that way!) But the script is horrible and she makes her scenes have more depth to them than the writer did. Plus I think she has a charisma that I'm looking to see more of on the big screen. She has two upcoming movies, both with her in the lead role. One directed by Lasse Hallstrom and the other written by Diablo Cody. Can't wait to see what she does with some better material.

reply

Eewww, no - I'm watching this now and all I can think about is how did this person get a job in acting?! And I think she's really unattractive - she acts like one of those girls who thinks she's god's gift just because she puts on lots of makeup, gets her hair done, wears tight jeans and gyrates a lot.
