Beautiful (2000)

I seem to be the only one that really loves this movie. I think it builds very great character development, as well as having a unique character personalities.Minnie Driver does a beautiful job in this movie playing Mona, the beauty pagaent contestant, whose hiding the fact that she has a kid by her best friend,Joey Lauren Adams, taking over the title of her mom.I think it's a powerful story, as well as a great message that moms should be able to compete in beauty pageants. It makes me mad to know that this movie got such horrible critic reviews and user reviews. It may not be as well-written of a story like Good Will Hunting, but it's a great movie to watch with your girlfriends.

I actually thought I would never find a movie, that could beat Ultraviolet. This is worse. Actually Beethoven is even worse than this, but this one also sucks incredibly much. You already know, how it's going to end and that stupid woman is going to be picked as Miss. America and announce that she is a mother. I wish I never saw this movie, cause it's like a piece of meat, that is stuck between my teeth. Don't rent this or see it. It's horrible as hell. The characters are not convincing. Especially the little spoiled girl, who talks like 30 year old. And that everybody starts voting for Miss. Illonois, shows what a pathetic screenplay this was. I hope this movie rots in the basement of every video stores.

This movie was really cool. And a lot like a real pageant (sorta) and how she could still (spoiler!!!) be a mom and miss America miss and miss Illinois was so cool. and how she worked so hard when she was a kid and finally had her dream come true with her friend (sorta) by her side. Its a really cool movie for anyone who's been or thought of being in a pageant! I think that even though her mom was totally not there for her when she should have been....ever. There should totally be a sequel to beautiful. I almost didn't pick it up because of how old it is but after i watched it i realized that it was a timeless movie!! This movie has inspired me even more to be in a pageant!!! Totally watch it!

Very stupid ending to a very bad movie. Minnie Driver isn't that good looking, had a stupid answer to her question that nobody could understand unless they had followed her around for 6 months, her talent part was horrible, yet she wins and everyone is happy about it. Only in a bad movie with a bad script does this nonsense happen.
