Generic Woke YA Dystopian Junk
Climate change environmental fearmongering. A lot of DEI casting. Her male friend/ possible love interest leaves and becomes 'pretty' and completely changes and ignores her, she is rescued by a seemingly lesbian admirer and just forgets her childhood friend in like 10 seconds and becomes best friends with the character. Her new love interest is of course a black male. Black trans head of the pretties is played by a mentally ill trans actor. At the beginning she says mirror make me pretty and its just her in professional air brush makeup and contacts. The uglies are just actors without makeup and the pretties are full professional hair and makeup. That's literally it. It's all surface level shallow bs. The acting is ok is suppose with some passable green screen backgrounds. The story is nothing new, and its all been done before in a dozens of YA dystopian books and movies. The action and stunt scenes are awful while the CG is low budget garbage (the bungee jacket scene followed by the hoverboard scenes are laugh out loud bad).
