Sorry PP but "raunchy" is not the right word for this movie. It was gratuitous after a point and anyone with two eyes would realize that.

Did you watch the whole thing?

Your opinion seems very limited and kind of the point of the movie.

It’s crazy how different (bad) she looks without makeup. Almost as bad as Katy Perry

That honestly seems really messed up and I’m disappointed a film like that won the Golden Globe over Barbie.

It’s comments like that that kept me from watching the movie. I think that’s really disgusting.

Agree - that was disturbing. I kept wondering what was Emma Stone thinking when she agreed to this movie??


+1. It was really disturbing.

OP here - been on 10 minutes & don’t know anything about the plot - just familiar with title due to award nominations

Frankenstein meets Pygmalion is what all the reviews say.
