Lindsay Lohanâs supposed comeback role as iconic actress Elizabeth Taylor happened when Liz & Dick finally aired.
And the reception was, to say the least, icy.
Twitter went into overload during the Lifetime movie with comments like singer Aimee Mann saying, âI get the feeling the phrase “It is what it is” was said a lot in the editing room.â
For those of you still wanting to see it, that kinda sums it up.
But it was the performance of Li-Lo that was under the most scrutiny, and hereâs what the critics had to say.
The New York Times wrote, âThe choice of Ms. Lohan is a gimmick that will certainly draw attention and probably viewers. But itâs not a kindness to that actress, who fails to deliver the kind of breakthrough performance that augurs a comeback.â
The Hollywood reporter said, âLohan is awful as Taylor from start to finishâ, declaring it âan awful mess and an instant classic of unintentional hilarityâ.
And The Huffington Post says âAll it really does is make you sad about whatâs become of Lindsay Lohan.â
During filming she was briefly hospitalized after crashing her Porsche and filming was stopped after she was found unconscious in her Ritz Carlton hotel suite supposedly due to exhaustion.
?The show’s producer even said, âworking with Lindsay Lohan is not for the faint heartedâ. But hey, everyoneâs talking about it right?
