What happened to her acting!?


In Neighbors Two she is horrible. She rolls her eyes around before she delivers like every line. I really liked her in Let Me In and the Carrie remake. But in Neighbors it was hard to watch. Seriously why did she roll her head and eyes so much?! Were her Carrie powers trying to come through or something...?

She makes BAD decisions when choosing her roles. And when she gets herself trapped into doing the terrible movie, she does EVERYTHING she is told WITHOUT question. Most actors would try to personalize their character and offer suggestions, but Chloe just does as she's told and THINKS it's for the best.

She has regressed as an actress and even she's regressed mentally. She seems more immature now than when she was 10.

Totally agree. It's unfortunate as she was at one time a promising young actress

So you do watch her movies then?

She was intended to play like that in Neigh2.
She's only improved since she was little.
You have serious problems if you think she's acting bad.
That's the 90% of the critics opinions about her.
The problem are the movies, not the acting.
That's a fact. Not only my opinion.

Yeah, and she keeps choosing DUDS. How is that? How does she keep picking bad movies to star in? I mean, we know the only reason she made 5th Wave was so she could carry a gun and be a killer again. It's like, she just hears about what kind of character she'll be playing and just immediately agrees to do the movie without learning any more about it.

I mean, we know the only reason she made 5th Wave was so she could carry a gun and be a killer again.That is not why Chlomo chose The 5th Wave. She stated years ago that she wanted to be an action heroine. Also she picked the role because she's so desperate to be attached to a franchise (any franchise) since losing out on The Force Awakens. She's trying to establish herself à la Jennifer Lawrence in The Hunger Games. Which is also why she opted for Neighbors 2, a sequel to a surprise hit comedy which could have potentially become a franchise like The Hangover. But disappointing returns have diminished that outcome, the same is probably true for The 5th Wave as well since it tanked in the US.

Had The 5th Wave been a hit, she'd be able to demand higher salaries for the sequels putting her at A-list status, granting her more mobility to pick and choose as she pleases, allowing her to grow as an actress in the industry. But it's just not working out. She's simply not a box office draw, in fact, she's kinda poisonous. I frankly don't get how she has a net worth of $12 million (if it's accurate) when her movies tank. How can she command these salaries??
