"No Hard Feelings: Jennifer Lawrence's Comedy Charms Tested in Hollywood's Controversial Sex Comedy"

Jennifer Lawrence's latest film, No Hard Feelings, is marketed as a raunchy sex comedy but is actually tame and inoffensive, playing into the "Wholesome Escort" trope. The film reflects Hollywood's cautiousness about sex in today's politically divided climate.

The article suggests that the success of No Hard Feelings may be due to Lawrence's comedic performance, while highlighting the upcoming film Joy Ride as a more authentic and raunchy sex comedy.
