While Irish a wish star just added another Rotten score to his repertoire, the new film is far from Lohan’s worst-rated film. In fact, it’s only her tenth worst reviewed film on Rotten Tomatoes.

Of her unrated films by critics, an additional three have an audience rating of Rotten. These titles would be from the 2000s In real size (48%), 2019 Among the shadows (21%) in 2012 as well Liz and Dick (17%). Although five of its eight fresh results are so strong that they are certified fresh by the platform, all of these certified titles were released in 2010 or earlier. Although the star took a long hiatus from regular acting roles starting in the mid-2010s, her lack of general critical success continued for some time, even without this period.

whatever Irish desire reviews don’t necessarily mean Lohan’s on-screen future is full of even more glitter. Her comeback film, Netflix’s holiday rom-com Fall for Christmas (62%), earned its first Fresh score in 10 years. This was followed by a cameo appearance in 2024 Bad Girls musical (70%), which also won Fresh score. If her upcoming projects, including the Netflix movie Our little secretcan continue that trend, her career could yet experience a critical renaissance despite this current stumble.
