Pig Hag

Not sure why this movie rates so low on here. I took a chance on it anyway, and don't believe it deserves anything worse than a 6. I found the performances of all involved to be genuine, and the lead actress was phenomenal.. I didn't have to find a mate in the world the main character lives in, but for anyone dating in current day, I believe the depiction is very real, especially for people who are obese. And I can certainly relate to how one can undermine a relationship by being too anxious. The group of gay friends adds a bit of humor to the film. I enjoyed it.

I liked this movie a lot because it was raw and real and didn't gloss over a painful life. It tells is own story and does not follow the usual Hollywood formula for a movie.

The main character is clearly disturbed and is quite unpleasant, but she has her moments of likeability. But I could feel her sadness and desperation. It was really interesting to me to see a female character like her in a movie like this.

I have been thinking about it a lot since I watched it and found it worth watching. I am glad I watched it alone. I don't think it is everyone's cup of tea.

I wasn't expecting to be moved so much by this film- based upon the simple description. I feel as though the majority of reviews shutting it down encapsulate most or all of the following attributes: 1. Male, 2. Emotionally underdeveloped, 3. Lack of perception and experience in the current dating world... I could go on, but I'd prefer reviewing the film. The main actress can come across as extreme at times- but I think to some degree her frustration and inability to properly decipher male dating expectations and behaviors can resonate with a lot of women. This hits hard when she and the hotel guy speak candidly about their lives and circumstances. I greatly appreciated the talk she had with her gay friends- they really illuminated the dating concept for men and the way they behave. Double standard much? Granted, this could also be reversed and the same experience can be had. But that isn't what this movie is about. It's about a 30 something woman's experience. I've been in similar situations years ago- and being ghosted by someone you felt a connection with can sting. You feel like you are penalized for being an open and honest person. I think this movie is a great commentary on how shallow our society has become and the perpetuation of callous and antisocial behavior.

Some will love it. Some will hate it. For those who love independent film that share different experiences and different points of view, this is a very enjoyable watch. I recommend this film if you come to it with an open mind and simply experience it.

Her obesity is irrelevant to the story.

She is a mean, nasty person that has zero self respect, dignity, personal hygiene, treats her friends and family terribly (works in a retirement home?! I hope she's nice to those helpless people!)...a disturbing woman lashing out, then can't understand why she doesn't get everything she wants.

I watched it all, and regret the time wasted.
