Summary:
A wild story of a family across four generations centered on the girl who becomes the woman who founds a business dynasty and becomes a matriarch in her own right. Betrayal, treachery, the loss of innocence and the scars of love, pave the road in this intense emotional and human comedy about becoming a true boss of family and enterprise facing a world of unforgiving commerce. "Uproariously funny"--Entertainment Weekly. "Joy is a fun but untidy muddle, a mess that even the self-wringing mop of its central metaphor can't easily clean up."--Toronto Star. "(Lawrence gives) a wonderfully layered performance that carries the film through its rough spots and sometime dubious detours."--Chicago Sun-Times. "The splendidly dextrous cast ensures that this goofy success story, which could just easily be titled American Hustle 2, keeps firing on all cylinders in the manner of the writer-director's previous few outings."--Hollywood Reporter.
