A review by pingin505
reasons to be pretty by Neil LaBute

4.0

Read in one sitting. It would obviously be much better staged. Interesting look into a slice of American life. Not really my favorite genre... it felt like gritty American realism but with better dialogue and maybe some humor?? I couldn’t tell how much was funny because a lot of the beginning really wasn’t funny to me, just absurd. But the ending was funny?? There was a defined progression and resolution to the piece which I appreciated. I liked 3/4 characters by the end but found them all irritating in the beginning. I think LaBrute did this on purpose.
