Whilst this summer might be about the big blockbusters, one film has movie-goers in hysterics.
No Hard Feelings is a new comedy with Matthew Broderick, Andrew Barth Feldman and Jennifer Lawrence.
The raunchy rom-com has struck a chord with cinemagoers who called it the Oscar winners ‘best role’.

It’s pretty impressive given the list of iconic roles that the 32-year-old has had over the years, including heroine Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games.
However, the new flick plays to the actor’s comic talents with Lawrence delivering a hilarious dead-pan performance throughout the R-rated movie.
For those not in the know, No Hard Feelings tells the story of Maddie (Lawrence) - a down-on-her-luck Uber driver who is about to file for bankruptcy.
After her car is repossessed, the young woman replies to a post on Craigslist and soon finds herself tasked with having to date introverted Percy (Feldman).
Whilst most men would jump at the chance to date the A-list actress, the 19-year-old is completely unbothered about relationships – much to the concern of his parents.
The hilarious new film has been a huge hit with audiences, many of whom have raved about the coming-of-age comedy.
In fact, one early reviewer dubbed the upcoming film Lawrence’s best role – despite her winning an Oscar for Silver Linings Playbook back in 2013.
Taking to Twitter, they wrote: “Jennifer Lawrence’s best role? You better believe it! Hysterical summer fun that blends the raunchy with a heartwarming look at breaking out of your shell.”
Continuing, they even showered praise on newcomer Andrew Barth Feldman – who recently made the jump from Broadway shows to the big screen.
The review read: “Andrew Barth Feldman is a star! Never overstays it’s welcome and just has you cracking up the entire time.”
Another had a similarly positive review for the new film and added that they wanted to see Lawrence do more comedies after the recent watch.
“#NoHardFeelings is one of those comedies that just works for a lot of reasons but mainly due to Jennifer Lawrence’s performance,” they wrote: “…she really needs to do more comedies, I had a lot of fun with the film and I highly recommend it.”
If that doesn’t have you running out to get a ticket, you’ll be even more impressed to learn that the actor helped to produce the movie – via her company, Excellent Cadaver.
Seriously, is there anything Jennifer Lawrence can’t do?
No Hard Feelings is out on June 21.
