“Atlas” Clocks 31.6 Million Views on Netflix
In the tech-charged “Atlas”, Lopez showcases her versatility as an actress by playing the role of an intelligent and skeptical data analyst. The plot twists take her character onto a mission of capturing a rogue robot, with whom she has a past. As the story unravels, she finds herself needing to trust artificial intelligence (AI), the very thing she has deep reservations about, to save the future of humanity. The film, directed by Brad Peyton, is crafted from the script of Leo Sardarian and Aron Eli Coleite.
Despite the Promising Plot, “Atlas” Receives Mixed Reviews
Nevertheless, the positive viewer turnout hasn’t exactly been mirrored by praise in reviews. Our critic, Alex Maidy, didn’t hold back in his review, labelling the movie a “limp mess that wastes the talents of everyone involved”. He critiqued it as a “special effects-laden foray” into sci-fi cliches that didn’t quite rise to the occasion, somewhat undermining the film’s achievement on Netflix.
Cancellation of “This Is Me… Live Tour” Raises Eyebrows
However, while “Atlas” may be floating in the Netflix heavens, away from the stage, J.Lo’s world has been more grounded. The slated launch of her concert tour, “This Is Me… Live Tour”, has been cancelled. Live Nation, the organizer, noted that Lopez is taking a break to spend time with her family and close friends.
The cancellation news has spurred various speculations. Some believe that the poor ticket sales could be the cause, while others point to potential marital issues with husband, Ben Affleck. In response to the fans, an emotional Lopez shared that she was “devastated” over letting her fans down but promised to make it up to them.
Parting Words
Despite the hurry and flurry of her personal life, Jennifer Lopez’s professional life, particularly in the film world, continues to make waves. Despite criticisms, “Atlas” is proof of her enduring appeal in the industry. Although her tour cancellation may have disappointed fans, they can take solace in the compelling performance she delivers in “Atlas”.
While Lopez’s personal and professional life may seem at odds, she undoubtedly remains a force to reckon with, be it on stage or on screen. As she navigates this phase of her career, fans and critics alike will be keeping an eye on her next move.
