Oh, Right, She's An Actress

Filed under: Julia Roberts

mx0095428.jpg

Julia Roberts has barely been making movies lately.

The Pretty Woman has mainly been having babies and doing voice over work on animated films, like Charlotte's Web.

But, now, Julia's back and the pressure is on.

Roberts looked happy yet nervous at the premiere of her new film, Charlie Wilson's War, Monday night in Los Angeles.

The film co-stars Tom Hanks and is directed by Mike Nichols with a screenplay by Aaron Sorkin - a great pedigree. But the movie is not a very "commercial" release.

Is Julia still America's Sweetheart???

We'll find out soon!

      We will have to wait to see, how the movie does opening weekend. She's been gone for too long and in this industry people tend to move on to the next thing. I personally always found her kinda boring, but that's just me.

      If it ain't a romantic comedy, sometimes I just want to tell her to leave it to the pros. But I always give her a chance. I mean, Erin Brakovich did wonders for her.

      i love her she is one of the best actresses out there, and perez she doesnt need to make any more movies she is pretty well off just by making pretty women thats all she needed to make her rich and famous, so yes she can have all the babies she wants and not worry

    29. CATHAZAT says – reply to this


      29

      Sorry, I've never cast her in the role as "America's Sweetheart". I think she is an overrated big mouthed race horse. And she's been married or divorced or almost married half a dozen times and she's barely 40. I think there is probably a lot that doesn't meet the eye. Perez, why don't you find out why she's had a long term feud (perhaps it is over) with her brother, Eric Roberts. He is the far more interesting and complex person in this acting family.

      America's sweetheart my ass….she's the most highly over-rated actress in Hollywood. Did no one see Moll Flanders and the Pelican Brief…despite Denzel Washington, it was a movie that dragged on and on. At one point, I wanted to jump into the movie and shoot her myself.

    31. jemms says – reply to this

      NO she is not americas sweetheart -what she is a wife who condones her husbands behavior of parking in a handicapped spot to go grocery shopping…

      Serious baby gut on Julia Roberts if indeed that is a built in gurdle! The baby weight will go besides she still has that beautiful smile and talent.

      She always plays the same person. I've no idea how she got that Oscar unless the Academy just didn't want to hear about her anymore. And excuse me, but TOM HANKS as a romantic lead? Did he get a total-body makeover? Last time I saw him he looked like the Christmas pig needing an apple in his mouth.

      Mark my words, this movie will be a hit. It is based on fact and the lady she plays is a one time aquaintence of mine. She has her make-up and accent down pat. Julia may have "stolen" somebody's husband, at least she didn't abort her lil' devils. I love mothers and especially MILFS.

      [re=1045129]Re: Hyde[/re ] I have to agree she plays nobody but Julia Roberts in every film and I dind her so fake in interviews that laugh she and tom cruise have the same "make them think you are down to earth" laugh and it is very grating and annoying … wish she would just go away and raise her kids and maybe do charity work but no more movies please julia

      They've said it above, and I agree; OVERRATED OVERRRATED OVERRRRRRR-

      She is nice looking, yet boring, Smiling phonily like a HORSE. Wish her a good family life though, as her time in films is almost over.

      America's Sweetheart? Sure, if that means it's a woman who's a man stealing, handicap parking ho!

    42. Lesley says – reply to this


      42

      I don't like her anymore. The handicapped parking and the psycho driving on the wrong side of the road to chase down a photographer put the nail in the coffin for me. Fine, so the paparazzi shouldn't stalk her when she's with her kids. Two wrongs don't make a right, she obviously feels the driving and parking laws don't apply to her.

      I've always thought she was a self-absorbed, talentless ass, so if she were to disappear into mommyhood and endless playgroups, I'd say my gain/her neighbours' loss.

      Dang, it's freezing at night in the Southland these days. What is with these celebrities at their premieres wtih no clothes on. I wish Julia would have put a sexy jacket on and acted somewhat normal. Bare arms in the upper 40s? Brrrr!

      Is it true that Julia Roberts was recently caught parking in a handicapped parking spot?? In addition, she was completely self-righteous and arrogant about it all. Man, fame can be a bitch on civility and manners!!

      Love Julia!!! Met her at the American Cinematheque Awards in October and she was just beautiful and gracious. She will ALWAYS be America's sweetheart.

      MAYBE SHE IS, MAYBE SHE ISN'T. BUT SHE'S MAKING MOVIES FOR THE OLDER CROWD NOW. EVERYONE GETS OLDER AND THEY CAN'T PLAY THE HOOKER WITH THE HEART OF GOLD FOREVER, AND WHO WOULD WANT TO ANYWAY. SHE'S GROWN UP, AND SO HAS HER AUDIENCE. THE WORLD IS NOT ONLY FOR THE 20-SOMETHINGS. I MEAN, REALLY. LAUREN, HEIDI, AUDRINA, AND WHITNEY ARE BORING. AND THE POPWREKS ARE DUMBASSES AND THE DRUG WHORES ARE WORSE. NO ONE IS WORTH ANY MORE THAN ANYONE ELSE REGARDLESS OF AGE.

      Julia has already made her mark in Hollywood and doesn't need to prove herself to anyone anymore. If she wants to sit around and have babies now, se has every right to do so. She's our pretty woman :-) ~

      55

      UM… "Charlie Wilson's War" is NOT a romantic comedy or romantic drama for that matter dimwits… So no "romantic chemistry" is needed between it's protagonists. It's about how a congressman (Tom Hanks) helped the Afghani resistance fight against the Soviets by getting the CIA to train them. Julia Roberts I believe plays a wealthy Texas widow who helps contribute monetarily to the cause… If any of you watched the trailers, you'd know this…

      She probably doesn't give a rat's ass if she is America's Sweetheart or not. She has a family, and so many more important things to worry about than what a nation full of hetherns think of her.

      What?!?!? Not a commercial release??? Yeah, Universal is known for their indie films. Tom Hanks, while likeable, is as commercial as it gets and the ads have been playing non-stop for weeks!! I've seen more of that womans horrid face in the past month than in the past three years.

      So I guess for your a "non-commercial release" is any movie without LiLo, the idiots Simpson, or any of the talentless squad of morons you glorify on this site. This movie will be good - IT'S A TRUE STORY YOU IDIOTS - oh yeah, for all you tweenies - Soviet Union = modern Russia - they were the bad guys!!

      That title should be reserved for young girls like Hayden Pantierre (can't think of anyone else), not someone who's been rode hard and put away wet. Once you become so familiar with these women and their borderline schitophrenic behavior it's hard to think of them in those terms anymore.

      Once a movie star become a breeder, no one is interested in them again. Most of them start breeding in their late 30's/early 40's because they know it's pretty much over for them. Julia is washed up. She's a breeder moo and a has-been.

      Dude, she's 40. Why should she still be America's sweetheart? That's boring. She's made a lot of crap movies. Maybe in her maturity, she'll make some interesting movies. Charlie Wilson's War sounds like a good start.

      Julia is the less psychotic, happier and somewhat prettier Angelina Jolie. She always plays the same role in every movie she's in. And I don't buy that she's only 40!

      74

      she's a self-riteous, home-wrecking, horse-faced bore. "Actress" is a stretch. she plays herself in every movie. I don't know how she won an academy award. Totally a husband stealer! regardless of whether or not danny and his wife had issues, she's a home wrecker. everyone from the set of that movie knows it.

      77

      I have only seen a few snippets of this new movie but this first thing that popped into my head when I saw Julia Roberts all dolled up and using that weird accent was the role should have gone to Sharon Stone. I am far from Sharon Stones biggest fan but "when the shoe fits". It makes me so mad when Hollywood shoe horns the popular high paid yet wrong actors into roles clearly suited for others. Remember when Tom Hanks killed "Bonfire of the Vanities" in a role that should have gone to William Hurt.

      Julia Roberts is from Georgia; you think she would know the difference between sounding like she's from Georgia and having a Texas accent like the woman she is portraying.
      I am not from Houston, but I live here and the women do not sound like they are frickin' Scarlett O'Hara!!
      How's about a little reality in your acting next time, Julia? And Tom, your accent sux too and this picture could have used all the help it could get!

      95

      I can't believe all of you. How can you judge so harshly. I guess in a world where a 40 yr old woman is considered out of shape after 3 kids (2 of which are twins) and just 7 months after giving birth to her third child she should be expected to look anorexic? To me, Julia Roberts is the essential "comfortable in her skin" woman EVER. She laughs…AT her self…not at others. She enjoys what is real in life. Her fulfilled life is not about the damn cash, movies, roles, friends, "it" crap that most people are into.

      Yeah, Perez. She is an ACTOR, let's not make this a gender issue. Actor/ Actress…bullshit. She is an actors actor.

      Maybe she has not made critics…or this fan's…favorite movies ALWAYS, but what Julia has is Class. Yeah, capital "C". She never depreciates a role after it bombed. She also doesn't make excuses for bad movies. Sometimes what you read in a script doesn't portray to the audiences.

      "Oh, Right, She's An Actress"…Fuck you Perez and your shitty minions. You officially lost a member of PerezNation tonight.
