Pretty Thing

Having seen over 6000 movies / series - I think I'm a pretty good critic and open to new actors / actresses coming into the movie industry seeing that the older famous actors are starting to go.

The general acting was good, film work was good, it's not of the highest standard but overall good. I personally felt the movie moved too slowly going forward and not actually setting the scene up.

Story line could have been a little more exciting or maybe a twist. It's an erotic thriller but if you were looking for a fifty shades of grey your going to be disappointed and for thriller it would I guess lean more to a drama.

Ending could have been better or a twist at the end. I gave it a 5/10 seeing it was not great yet not terrible.

The movie really nailed it , actors were top notch , no comedy things . Straight to the point . And the end seems a bit awkward (she is the one ). I hope they matched. Real love are for men, for women it does not matter. Psychic movie and a good one , everyone can enjoy it. Up and down movie, crazy duo, 2 different paths. Adventure type movie , drama, unpredictability , lies, sexual hypnotism. Addictive rough love. Mind control somehow horror movie . These 2 main actors deserve some more credit to stick to their acts . The whole story does not involve too many people and again really well put together movie overall.

Will transport viewers to the late 80s n 90s erotic thriller but the ending ruined it.

One of the very best part is that the movie didn't take ur usual route of the married wife or married husband aka cheating spouses way.

Whenever I watch such kinda erotic thrillers i laugh a lot at the persistence of the stalker or one sided lover.

This movie is an example of a female empowerment stuff and at the same time showcases the socio economic disparity present.

I personally behaved like Elliot from this movie but I was 16 when I behaved like him wheras our Elliot is 33 who still lives with his mother.

The line: Roommate? He lives with his mom made me laugh and roll on the floor.

The lead actor gave a truly believable performance cos I had been there.

Alicia Silverstone looks very haggard. They shud have taken somebody else who was ready to go a bit nude.

Silverstone didn't even had the oomph factor or appeal at all.

Pretty Thing started off much better than I expected, since I was expecting some cheesy made for TV movie. Karl Glusman steals this film from Alicia Silverstone , with him playing an emotionally immature momma's boy and her playing a role usually reserved for men, a powerful, well off executive. The movie does a great job at explaining it's character's personalities and motivations, but I have to wonder if the people behind this intended to make the female character so unsympathetic and awful. While I enjoyed the film when it concentrated on Glusman's character, it all of a sudden switches to her point of view and goes downhill. Since his character is actually more likable and you feel for him, the movie just seems odd and the ending is genuinely a huge letdown. It's a shame they kind of dropped the plot, because the acting is excellent and the scenes are played in a very realistic way.

I agree with other reviews that the ending was just meh. Nothing intriguing about it. What I find disconcerting is the review saying Elliot is "likable." He's a creepy incel stalker sociopath. There's absolutely nothing likable about him. Unfortunately Alicia Silverstone's character isn't developed at all, and so it's hard really rooting for her as well. No background, no real personality, poor Rachel Blanchard plays her sister for all of 3 minutes.

While the acting is decent and the plot gets interesting midway, it doesn't lead to an exciting climax. It passed the time with nothing else to watch but I wouldn't strongly recommend this one in any way.
