The mom is a ludicroulsy ugly woman

I guess they had an ugly character so they wanted an ugly actress, but what the hell...she looks like a man!
Even her dreadful looking halfman husband looks good next to her. Was she supposed to be a transgender?
No way somebody that ugly can have cute kids like those!
I think it was a very poor casting choice.
Also, not to stereotype, but usually the uglier outside the prettier inside.
Ugly people like that woman would not judge others like she does in the whole movie.
Look in the mirror and shut up, monster!

This has got to be one of the dumbest posts I've seen on this site.

My favorite part of your post is that you didn't want to offend anyone by using a stereotype.

Well, I am a hard but I am fair.

She wasn't particularly ugly imo. With a makeover she'd look like an average woman.

There are some very unfortunate looking people in this earth. The resident moviechat liberals for example.

They should stay off screen as far as I am concerned.

I don't think there are any actors out there that are offensively ugly. Part of being an actor is you have to have a face that doesn't stand out in any particularly bad way. Even so called ugly actors like Rosie O'Donnell and Roseanna Barr were just fat chicks with average faces.

Ugly actors like Rosie O'Donnell and Roseanna Barr have traits that compensate their looks.

A supporting character actor like the one of this OP should not stand out this sorely. She is supposedly the mom of three good looking kids.
It's a very poor casting choice, she almost ruins this good movie.

Actually, people tend to look on the outside exactly what they are on the inside.

[–] Heisenberg (6730) 5 months ago

Not in my experience.
There's plenty of ugly people inside and outside, but I would say the majority of them uglies tend to be more available and less entitled than the majority of beautiful people, who feel like something is always owed to them.
But there is also plenty of exceptions of that too.

Anyway, for such a small role of an awful woman, I would have casted a good looking woman tht could play the cunt, like a Leslie Mann type, not this dude who makes me wonder how she ever got pregnant in the first place.

She's always reminded me of Egon from Ghostbusters.
His sister perhaps.
