Sadly Over-hyped

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

This was a remarkable programme showing how dedicated the "professionals" actually are. Those people who have made negative comments are spiteful and jealous of the happiness of those who benefited from the surgeries and therapies. One can only assume they are jealous of those who were brave enough to show their "all" on international television; not to mention the surgeons and practitioners who put their professional names in the spotlight not knowing whether it would be for good or bad, however, in my opinion, they were all fantastic. The girls were transformed into self-confident, beautiful women. Well done to all those involved in the Swan programmes - they were truly remarkable and encouraging to those who believe they have imperfections and disabilities.It was extremely sad that there were only two seasons as so many more women could have been involved in a life-changing transformation that they would not otherwise have been able to afford.I long for a programme of a review of all the girls to show how the changes have affected their lives.

I won't say the typical things about this show such as "it's revolting!" and "how horrible" and "society is awful" and all those things that everyone wants to say because everybody's already said those things. This show is awful on several levels and I don't say that with my nose turned up in the air saying how wonderful I am b/c I'm against plastic surgery. Some people will truly never change unless something physical is changed and only then will they allow themselves to be happy. Maybe that's because of society but it doesn't change the fact that sometimes plastic surgery is a good thing for some people. This show pulls those type of people on and makes them feel better (a change that will probably stay). But the way it is presented and what the moronic doctors say makes it awful and a total mind f***. You are nothing unless you inject your a** into your lips! They don't just adjust and lift to bring out the beauty of the girl, they reconstruct some of these girls and make them look like cats (best example is the girl who won the first season - looks nothing like herself and looks like a plastic mold). No one in their right mind would have anything against making a persons teeth white and straight so I don't know why they would have a problem making the bridge of a nose a little skinnier, but my god! They actually make the effort to make every girl look the same! It's hilarious.Case in point: the story of a woman who decided to get skinny, she did and was left with HUGE over flow of skin that looked pretty awful really (and I think taking away skin like that is a healthy sugery - giving you rewards for getting healthy) but just as she lost all the weight, she tragically lost her husband. The theripist (OF ALL PEOPLE!!!) says "how ironic that she is left with all that skin." (!!!!!!!!!!WHAT!!!!!!!!) The woman lost her husband after she lost weight for him - that's irony. Later in the show, one doctor tells her to her face how difficult the surgery will be for him, and that he's never had to do so much work. Not only a personal display of great tact but way to send a message to anyone that thought the lady looked pretty (such as I did, she really did) about how awful they must look. I just hope little teenage girls are more intelligent than we all give them credit for when we are getting mad at this show. It could all also fit into an easy 30 minute show but they have the contestants say things about what is wrong with them and they replay it after every commercial. You see everything but the reveal just at least twice. It's a piece of crap show.

I am a new member to this web-site, and I have to make a comment on The Swan. All right, This show reminds me that we are one step closer to the TOTAL destruction of the human race as we know it! Yes, these women all have a low self-esteem problem. So, yeah, why not have a so called expert tell them they need 5,000 things done to them to make them "Patchent Worthy". Who the HELL are they to judge? What ever happened to the saying, "It's what inside that counts!"? Anyone who doesn't find this show repulsive, or even finds it funny, should really re-examine themselves. Maybe the women on the show aren't the ones with the problems!

OK, so you have to have a sick sense of, humor.....but the cheese factor is VERY VERY HIGH on this show. The women are pathetic (not really, but the producers make them look pathetic). They never are seen with makeup before the "REVEAL" and never seen without makeup after the "REVEAL." The show is done in PURE FOX style, with pseudo-suspense and dramatic music and "will she or won't she make it" commercial break cliffhangers. And to top it all of, you have the cheesily dramatic REVEAL, in which the women usually touch their face, cry, turn around and ask if this is real, and then cry, and then laugh hysterically. IT IS PRICELESS..........don't listen to these people commenting on this show. They are too uptight to breathe.
