What to Know

Critics Consensus

I Feel Pretty has a charming star and the outline of a worthwhile comedy -- but unlike its suddenly confident central character, it suffers from a fundamental lack of conviction.

I Feel Pretty (2018) | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Roxana Hadadi Pajiba I Feel Pretty is presenting itself as the kind of film that reveals how ugly we are for laughing at body-related stereotypes, but then why make those your jokes? May 21, 2018 Full Review I Feel Pretty (2018) | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Jason Bailey Flavorwire Is this stuff supposed to be funny? These scenes are cut and shot like they're jam-packed with laughs, but our audience was so quiet and uncomfortable, you'd think we were at a rep screening of 'Shoah.' May 7, 2018 Full Review I Feel Pretty (2018) | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Wendy Ide Observer (UK) Like a few too many films churned out of the predominantly male studio system and marketed to a female audience, you get a sense that, deep down, it doesn't have a particularly high opinion of women. Rated: 2/5 May 7, 2018 Full Review I Feel Pretty (2018) | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Sarah Vincent Sarah G Vincent Views “I Feel Pretty” centers the ordinary woman, gives her the delusion, adds a dash of The Devil Wears Prada, and depicts her personal aesthetic in the vein of Reese Witherspoon in “Legally Blonde.” The premise feels familiar but is subversive. Jun 12, 2024 Full Review I Feel Pretty (2018) | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies “I Feel Pretty” is a movie with a message – a genuinely good message. And we are constantly getting whiffs of it throughout. Unfortunately it’s buried in a tonally challenged film with an glaring identity crisis. Rated: 2/5 Aug 22, 2022 Full Review I Feel Pretty (2018) | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review It's hard to imagine a more confused or flawed execution of a well-meaning message, except maybe Shallow Hal (2001).

Peter K My girl is the most beautiful in this world! Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 08/06/24 Full Review Andy S Me sentí identificada, me deja un bonito mensaje de que todo están en nuestra mente Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/18/24 Full Review Jeff M I think critics really missed the mark on this one! And I'm sad that I became acquainted with this movie after RomCom Madness had already begun. This is far from my favorite movie genre, but this was a shocking surprise that I thoroughly enjoyed. Not unlike last year's BRITTANY RUNS A MARATHON, this movie tackled subjects including weight issues and low self esteem that hit really close to home, making it a very personal and even occasionally moving experience for me. And I think Schumer's Renee Bennett is one of the best romantic comedy characters in a long time. I also loved the very subtle and unexpected romantic relationship between Schumer and Rory Scovel, who gives a very lived-in and low-key performance - definitely not your average romantic hero. And it's a treat to see Williams lighten up from her normal dramatic fare - her Minnie Mouse on helium voice made me laugh throughout the film. There's a lot to enjoy here, and Schumer comes across just as strongly here as she did in TRAINWRECK. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/11/24 Full Review Dinos K Amy Schumer: I feel pretty Everyone else: You are not (not funny either) Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/23/24 Full Review Le W This is a light and humorous film, the main idea is that women should believe in themselves, no matter what kind of body, with confidence will be able to succeed. Of course, there are many logical loopholes in the movie, such as the fact that Renee can quietly go to the new product launch party to speak, which is impossible in reality.The good thing about this movie is that Renee is always playing alone, but she thinks she's beautiful. The audience sees the same person, and she really feels professional and beautiful when she's confident.In fact, it is not only the body, no matter what shortcomings or defects we can not change, we should believe in ourselves. No one is perfect. Confidence will do more with less.It's a movie to cheer up the girls. It's a movie to watch when you're disappointed in yourself. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/22/23 Full Review MoviesSeries R I enjoyed this movie alott. It felt like watching a movie from the year 2000's. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
