Review of The Pretty One (2014) by Kevin W — 05 Jan 2015
Okay, so I don't know how they do the one actress playing two people in the same scene. It was seamless. Compared to other reviewers, I didn't find anything cliché. (I guess I missed all those other movies.
) The cast seemed just perfect for the story. Kazan is fun to watch. Jake Johnson helped anchor the plot by being the off-beat love/hate interest (okay that is cliché, but he did it well). And the way the movie handled Laurel's horrendous choice seems the opposite of whimsy, so I don't agree with those who portray the movie as shallow and trite.
The actors, script and direction make it well worth seeing. I'll watch it again.
