Review of Bottoms

Bottoms (2023)
3/10
Ugly people, ugly voices, ugly humour
7 January 2024
You know right from the beginning that this show is a director's vanity project, using talentless actors like the dubious lead and pouring on jokes that are hit and miss, mostly the latter. It gives you the feeling of cheapness and superficiality.

Rachel Sennott's whiny, spoiled-brat voice and unpleasant looks tells you right off the bat this is not going to be a pleasant experience. It would have helped if creator Seligman had cast actors who have some connection with the camera to evince some sort of empathetic feelings from the viewer. Instead, you find yourself looking away from the actors, realizing the jokes would have more humorous impact had they been delivered by more talented actors to which the audience could identify.
