If you're in need of a good laugh, then one particular Jennifer Lawrence movie has got you covered - but you'll need to be quick.
Having stepped into the spotlight with roles in X-Men, Like Crazy, and, of course, The Hunger Games, Lawrence didn't necessarily rise to fame as a comedy star, but her most recent movie has certainly established her as one.
In the flick, released in 2023 and now streaming on Netflix, Lawrence takes on the role of Maddie Baker - a single woman on the brink of losing her home who decides to take on a somewhat unusual job offered by the parents of a socially awkward teen as she seeks to make a bit of extra cash.
Andrew Barth Feldman, Laura Benanti, and Matthew Broderick star alongside Lawrence in the movie, and if there's one thing to know before you watch it, it's that you don't want your parents in the room.

Titled No Hard Feelings, the movie follows Lawrence's character as she attempts to bring Feldman's character, Percy, out of his shell, but it's not as easy as she initially might think.
The antics that ensue include Lawrence carrying out her first full-frontal nude scene - a plot point that had the actor walking around naked for a whole day.
With a Rotten Tomatoes score of 76 percent on the Tomatometer and an 86 percent Audience Score, the movie is definitely worth your time, but Netflix has warned that there's only a few days left to go until it's removed from the streaming service.
No Hard Feelings is set to depart from Netflix on April 21, giving you just over a week to take in everything - and I mean everything - Lawrence has to offer.
Fans have raved about the movie, with one offering up five stars on Rotten Tomatoes as they wrote: "I think this film is perfection. Just watched it for the third time and it still makes me laugh out loud throughout. It's raunchy and offbeat, but it also has a lot of heart. Great performances. Just an all around good time."
Another commented: "Perfect comedy to lift your spirits and watch on repeat. Jennifer Lawrence and Andrew Barth Feldman couldn’t have had better on-screen chemistry with their hilariously cringy & awkward moments. Tears may be shed during the belly aching, laugh out loud scenes, as well as the poignant dialogues exposing character’s insecurities. Definitely a knock-out performance by the cast and crew!"
