Editor’s note: The Ugly (2025) in a nutshell: It leans into its Mystery, Thriller roots without feeling derivative. Yeon Sang-ho keeps the storytelling tight, favoring character beats over empty flash. Park Jeong-min, Kwon Hae-hyo, Shin Hyun-been anchor the film with grounded, unshowy work. The 1h 42m runtime suits the material. Solid if imperfect—its strengths outweigh a few rough edges. Its tagline—“The barefaced truth comes out.”—is a fair snapshot of its intent. If the premise speaks to you, put it on your list.
