In the book, the "pretties" were kinda described like uncanny valley-esque, like their eyes were made bigger and "flaws" ironed out, but in a way that made them seem like they looked like Bratz dolls in real life. All of them.
But the movie just puts them all under a basic snapchat filter and calls it a day

[imeeennam]

The funniest thing in this whole movie is that “turning pretty” is just them putting the bold glamour filter on from tiktok

[麦わらのウィロー]

Imagine getting an email saying you got cast for a movie and the movie was called ‘Uglies’ 😭

[lilysong]

The funny thing is the book has emphasis that “uglies” are anything NATURAL. Pretties are unnaturally and superficially pretty. There’s a conversation between two characters talking about getting gems implanted into their eyes that tell time. It’s incredibly absurd. Which is the point. Pretties are ABSURD.

It’s a great book honestly. The fact that the movie is just awful is sad.

Can you imagine your own best friend giving you a nickname based on your most unflattering quality?
"Oh, hey there, Receding Hairline!"
"Nice to see you again, Ball-Sized Goiter!"

[BabyNazarath]

So many opportunities to make this into a horror film. Just the description of how they turn you pretty is enough to make anybody disturbed

This movie should've been animated and I'll die on that hill

I think they really didn't handle the whole turning pretty thing well. I've seen a lot of people be like "they are not ugly" and "they pretty ones are actually uglier", but the whole point is that they are not ugly, they are just told they are. In their eyes we all would be ugly. There is a scene in the book that has Shay and Tally reading an old fashion magazine from "our time" and they see the models and they are like "is that what people thought was pretty? They are so ugly!". The whole pretty thing was like their face would be perfectly symmetrical after the surgery, hence we are all naturally ugly bc no one has a perfectly symmetrical body. I always thought that the pretties would look scary rather than "pretty"... There is a very beautiful message in this story, I wish the movie was better so we could have seen the whole series.

The Korean film "Human Form" did the aspect of unnatural beauty better than "Uglies". Similar to Uglies, the world in Human Form considers natural faces ugly. To them, surgically made porcelain doll faces are beautiful. And they did a good job showing how unnaturally perfect, sharp, and wax-like the surgically made faces were compared to a normal face

[abnormalhumanbeing]

why does the plot of uglies remind me of those tiktok hero pov where the main person clicks the air at 18 and gets their superpower

[Eli_]

The older I get the more I realize how insane it is for these main characters to be between 15-17, they’re so young 😭

[earthmars]

it's the fact that peris' nose din't change AT ALL lmaoo

[justme]

I love how them being hot is just them basically putting a gold filter on them

[xoxonastasia]

In the book before you were 16 you were normal, not ugly. Society made them feel ugly so they would undergo the procedure. The surgery elevates your appearance to uncanny levels of beauty, but they also messed with your brain. The surgery was essentially just a cover up to mess with your brain. The books were so good, it's such a shame.

[annuyaki]

there is no way people who think peris actually got prettier after this „metamorphosis” exist right? netflix just took all his beauty and uniqueness turning him into oli london

[cadburyyork]

The cool thing about reading the book is when you stop and you're like, wait, these kids aren't ugly, they're just normal, and the pretties are very unnatural.
Putting it in a visual format loses that initial shock, plus the pretties just have a snap chat filter on them.

[elitheclguy]

In the book there was never this whole “David is going to blow up the city” conflict. Tally simply went to betray the smoke because they told her if she didn’t then she and her friend would be ugly forever. Her attraction to David despite him being “ugly” is what makes her think about “inner beauty” or whatever and then when she meets his parents her whole perspective changes.

When they yassified Peris and Shay, I couldnt stop laughing. It looked they just Facetuned them 😅🤣🤣🤣

[Jonathan_Collins]

If I had a nickel for every time a pre-2008 novel featuring teenagers and a dystopian future was adapted into a boring and gray rip-off of the first Hunger Games movie.

[keerahh]

As weird as it sounds, i think it would've been a good idea to have the Pretties all in Uncanny Valley Makeup and the Uglies stay as they are. I think this would show the dramatic difference between what their dystopian society considers to be pretty and why it had such a big influence on Tally and other Uglies
