I love the compelling setup of "Can money buy happiness?" And the answer is: A little bit.

An overlong, undercooked comedy of manners about how, yes, indeed the rich are different...

A fresh mix of social satire and relationship dissection with a saving dollop of heart.

Pretty Problems is a tequila-induced fever dream.

A satire such as Pretty Problems could have been a clever parody of shallow and materialistic people, but this tiresome movie ends up being as vapid and annoying as the characters it is trying to mock.

This is the kind of intimate little indie that I wish we got more of.

I loved the premise and the humor was tongue in cheek. It’s slapstick but also cerebral. You have to pay attention to take it all in but the journey was worth taking. I think we all need to be reminded of the part of ourselves that is a little gross and find the part of ourselves that can do better. Loved the ride. Certainly better than most mainstream comedies from big movie companies.

What a strange movie... Kept waiting for it to get better and it never did. Lindsey's character is a trash person and terribly written

horrible movie, chopped up segments slapstick comedy Empezar plot twist. What are those movies where the actors probably had a great time making it but the storyline is nonexistent.. they try to come off like the whole experience has a meeting at the end but they do it in such a condescending and stupid way.

This is a dreadfully stupid movie. I have no idea who is being paid to pump this movie on this website. It is awful.

The film was conceptually amazing and the characters were bizarre and beautiful. However they never gave us empathy so it was only a 7. 7 of 10
