The Beauty Review (2026): Is It Worth Watching?

What is The Beauty about?

Adapted from the comic, Ryan Murphy’s body-horror satire imagines a sexually transmitted wonder drug that remakes the infected as flawless versions of themselves — until the perfection turns terminal and the beautiful begin to detonate. FBI agents played by Evan Peters and Rebecca Hall chase the outbreak from Paris runways to a billionaire’s compound, where Ashton Kutcher’s tech messiah sells transcendence and Isabella Rossellini watches the old order rot.

Celluloid verdict: Gorgeous surfaces, splattery payoffs and a thesis that keeps slipping out of focus — a lurid, watchable satire that works best when it stops admiring itself in the mirror. The cast is led by Evan Peters, Rebecca Hall, Ashton Kutcher, Isabella Rossellini, Anthony Ramos, among others.
