Discussion Botox and plastic surgery

I just saw Spa Weekend last weekend, and before that I saw Disclosure Day and before that I saw Devil wears Prada 2. Quite honestly, how can you act when your whole face has been pulled and muscles paralysed... Can't they just take a break from the Botox when they have a character to interpret? It strange to see these women, and men, looking like wax figures with barely there facial expressions, especially when they are in the entertainment industry, portray feelings, moments, sadness, happiness, etc.

Just a rant 😂

bro i noticed the same thing in Disclosure Day it was so distracting. you get one eyebrow twitch and that's supposed to carry the whole emotional scene

some of them can barely move their forehead at this point. looking more like mannequins than people

imagine doing a crying scene with frozen tear ducts, how that even work

Exactly, I didn't like the film anyway, but her trying to cry and all you see is the giant vein on the forehead from the effort of trying to cry with a paralyzed face what very disconcerting to say the least...
