Lindsay Lohan 'Speed-the-Plow' Reviews! London Play Revival Performance A Trainwreck? Critics React To Actress' Opening Night

Lindsay Lohan's London play finally opened to an onslaught of publicity. Will the West End production of Speed-the-Plow be the comeback the actress needs to get her career back?

After a disastrous opening night in previews where Lindsay forgot her lines, as MStars News reported, the Mean Girls star has had time get more comfortable to the stage before opening night. It looks like it paid off with the reviews being better than expected.

"The first thing to say is that Lindsay Lohan gives a perfectly creditable performance in this revival of David Mamet's acerbic, anti-Hollywood satire," The Guardian writer Michael Billington wrote. "Whatever her colourful past, Lohan brings on stage a quality of breathless naivety that is far and away the most interesting thing in Lindsay Posner's otherwise tame, under-powered revival. She holds the stage with ease and doesn't let the side down. She brings a fresh quality to Mamet's play by suggesting Karen is less a manipulative witch than a figure of genuine missionary zeal."

The Telegraph was also complimentary to the Freaky Friday star, but mentions you still don't forget Lindsay's tabloid life when watching her: "Attractive, leggy and arrestingly husky of voice Lohan, 28, gives an ample sense of this journey, convincing us she's an outsider even if certain lines ('I know what it is to be bad') seem calculated to remind you of her real-life Lalaland exploits."

Paul Taylor of The Independent applauded Lindsay for pushing through even though all eyes were on her.

"Given the circumstances and the glare of publicity, it would have been understandable if she had succumbed to traumatic mutism at tonight's press performance, so it's good to report that she was completely on top of the script," he wrote. "Bravo to Lindsay Lohan for ... turning in a deftly delineated characterization. ... She has real presence."

With reviews of Lindsay's performance being better than expected, do you think this will jumpstart her film career again?
