Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
"The Pretty One" is a movie with a few touching moments and others that prompt eye rolls.

rotten:
It would take a lot of charm for "The Pretty One" to overcome that creepy premise, but the movie doesn't have it.

What would "The Pretty One" be without Zoe Kazan's pixieish melancholy and offbeat comic timing? Not much.

rotten:
The whole movie has a damp, logy texture. It could have used a rewrite or a re-edit just to dry it out.

fresh:
The film is trite on the surface, but through some complex plotting, writer-director Jenee LaMarque slyly incorporates foreboding themes of guilt and delusion that push the farcical elements to the brink.
