Jennifer Lawrence is one of the biggest actors on the planet having starred in some iconic flicks - but one of her lesser known movies caused a stir with fans at the time.
While she made her money in the likes of The Hunger Games and X-Men franchises, not every one of the 33-year-old's films has been met with great critical acclaim.
In particular, there was a 2017 film that was met with a mixed reviews, and to be honest, left most viewers pretty confused.
The movie in question is Mother!, which sees Lawrence play an unnamed mother whose home is taken over by a group of strangers.

While it may sound like a pretty interesting concept, the horror movie certainly didn't land well with viewers.
Typically, you find that the most common complaint from viewers is the fact the film is quite frankly, bad.
But with Mother!, viewers mostly complained about how confusing it was.
Some speculated that Lawrence's character represented Mother Earth, while the invaders represented humans exploiting the planet's natural resources.

Take a look at the trailer:
Regardless of the true meaning, it's safe to say the film was not well received.
Even Lawrence herself confessed that she doesn't understand the movie - despite sleeping with the director, Darren Aronofsky.

Appearing on an episode of Watch What Happens Live, Lawrence was asked by host Andy Cohen: "On a scale of one to totally confused, how much did you understand your film Mother!?"
Lawrence burst into laughter, while assuring that she'd give a truthful answer.
Between giggles, she said: "I'm going to be honest. Well, I was sleeping with the director, so I had the CliffNotes. So, five. Or four?"
Cohen was shocked as he replied: "Four?! Wow okay, that's not high."

Aronofsky and Lawrence hit it off on the film's set but broke off their relationship two months after its release.
Lawrence would later admit that the film put a strain on their romance.
Talking to Adam Sandler, Lawrence reflected: "Normally, I promote a movie, ask people to go see it, and then it’s just out of your hands.
"I normally just kind of let it go. Dating the director was different. We’d be on the [press] tour together, I’d come back to the hotel, and the last thing I want to talk about or think about is a movie.
"He comes back from the tour, and that’s all he wants to talk about and I get it.

"It’s his baby. He wrote it. He conceived it. He directed it."
She added: "I was doing double duty trying to be a supportive partner, while also being like, ‘Can I please, for the love of God, not think about Mother! for one second?’
"I finally was just like, ‘It’s not healthy. Neither of us are doing it because if I read it, I start getting defensive.’ Especially because it’s my man.
"It’s awesome, what we did — some people hate it and the people who hate it, really hate it."
