Reviews for Drop Dead Gorgeous
There are laughs: the leering judges, especially, who don't know much when it comes to talent but are impressed with nubile young girls flexing their limbs.
Some of this material is undeniably funny, but it will surely be painful to some viewers and reinforce negative prejudice in others.
Energetically acted but too in love with its own outrageousness, Drop Dead Gorgeous goes for the jugular of beauty pageant culture and ends up leaving only a hickey.
Drop Dead Gorgeous doesn't drop dead, but the gags often arrive like planks hitting our heads.
