Editor’s note: Our short take on The Ugly Stepsister (2025): A confident blend of Horror, Comedy, Fantasy, Drama, focused more on tone than spectacle. Under Emilie Blichfeldt’s direction, the film keeps a steady rhythm and a clear sense of place. Lea Myren, Ane Dahl Torp, Thea Sofie Loch Næss anchor the film with grounded, unshowy work. At 1h 49m, it moves with a measured pace and rarely overstays a scene. A respectable mid-tier entry with a couple of memorable beats. “If the shoe doesn't fit…” sums up the film’s focus better than most trailers do. If the premise speaks to you, this one’s easy to recommend.
