Friends say Lindsay Lohan wasn't prepared for the harsh criticism of her Lifetime movie "Liz & Dick." And instead of providing the career comeback the troubled star expected, her performance has left many wondering if she will ever be taken seriously as an actress again.

“Lindsay is devastated by the response to the film,” a close friend of the actress tells The Huffington Post. “She has got used to all the negative press around her personal life but this is the first time she has experienced it about her work. No matter how bad things were going for her personally, everyone would always agree that she was a great actress.”

The Hollywood Reporter compared the Lifetime drama to a "Saturday Night Live" skit. The New York Times accused the actress of “sleepwalking through scenes,” while Entertainment Weekly made fun of Lohan’s “frozen face” and “blank stare.”

“Lindsay has already read her own press,” one insider tells me. “She knew the script wasn't strong but thought she would bring the role of Elizabeth to life. This is particularly heartbreaking as her acting was the only thing in her life that she knew was real. Now she is doubting that, too.”

Lifetime and Lindsay’s spokesperson did not respond to calls for comment.

Lady Gaga comes in support with Lindsay on Twitter..
After receiving a series of harsh reviews for her performance as Elizabeth Taylor in the Lifetime biopic (The Hollywood Reporter called it "half train wreck, half SNL skit), the 26-year-old starlet's Chateau Marmont pal is sticking up for her famous friend.

"@lindsaylohan you did a beautiful job on Liz & Dick, Let no one bring u down, Liz didnt, they always try to knock the greats down a few pegs," the "Born This Way" singer tweeted Monday.

‏"@ladygaga thank you so much!," the comebacking actress posted in response. "You are such an incredible force and that means the world to me :) love & hugs xo hope to see you soon bella."
