this is gonna sound controversial but our collective hatred of amy schumer is pretty representative of our misogynistic tendency to hate successful white women in the media, especially in the film industry and lol just kidding can you imagine

Watched at Pacific Grove Stadium 14.

I had to watch it so you guys don’t have too but I Feel Pretty has funny moments, a brilliant performance by Michelle Williams, and a worthwhile message, albeit one delivered at the end of a sledgehammer. Unfortunately, the 110 minute runtime drags on far too long and most of it is more cringe-worthy than amusing.

Michelle Williams is so iconic

It ALMOST gets the message across. ALMOST.

I feel robbed of laughs.

Beautiful and awkward at the same time.

Hell no.
Der Film war nicht unerträglich.
Die Idee dahinter ist fantastisch.
Wir Menschen, vorallem Frauen, sollten uns wohlfühlen, ohne auf die modische Scheiße in den Medien zu achten.
Es gibt einige Stellen, an denen man sicherlich lachen kann.
Beim einfachen Zuschauen gefällt einem was man sieht. Aber man sollte nicht weiter darüber nachdenken. Denn dann missfällt der Film einem immer mehr.
Die Hauptrolle ist schlecht geschrieben oder gespielt. Ein bisschen zu übertrieben, allemal.
Doch die Message ist die richtige.

The premise sound not bad at all on paper. The execution though is pretty flat, lacks in interesting character development.

I know this film had a bit of backlash initially for saying the only way someone could be happy with their body image was if they had a head injury, but honestly the movie is not wrong. There is so much negativity when it comes to body image that it’s rare for anyone to be completely happy with themselves. Although the film has lots of self deprecating humor and provides a silly take on a serious issue, the message that everyone struggles with feeling good about themselves was a good one. The story followed the usual predictable formula for these types of movies but it was fun and I laughed a lot.

Amy Schumer has good delivery of jokes even when they are expected or obvious. I know she steals her jokes through her standup and her show (is her show still on now?) but in her films she usually has some funny lines and is actually a good actress in my opinion. She has multiple scenes in this film where she portrays emotion very realistically. Such as her looking sadly into the mirror for a long time in the beginning and then happily in the end. Aswell as her change of character once she becomes the ideal receptionist. Its not perfect and its boring and poorly written at parts (mainly the last 40 minutes), its also bad at establishing personalities on characters, but it has a good message and is more than competent. Its main problem is that you never feel like youre invested in whats happening...

I’m all for a positive body image but she becomes a complete asshole!! the type of movie you watch on the airplane and forget about a couple days later.

It's crazy that no one called an ambulance for Amy Schumer this whole movie!!!!
