#1 The Bride!
5.0

The elaborate monster hair is admired as part of the film's first-rate craft. Changes to the Bride's hair also help mark her evolving identity.

Pros: acting performance, lead performance

Cons: directing quality, entertainment value

#2 Coraline
4.8

The heroine’s hair is admired for its animated execution and distinctive color. The bright blue design helps her stand out in the drab real world.

Pros: animation quality, scares

Cons: pacing, family dynamics

#3 A Talent for Murder
4.0

The deliberately unflattering haircut contributes to Mirren's convincing lack of glamour as the reclusive author.

Pros: acting performance, lead performance

Cons: pacing, writing quality

#4 Sense and Sensibility
2.1

Loose, windswept hair communicates youth and freedom, but Marianne’s persistently disheveled look is a recurring distraction. Several viewers wish for more variation between outdoor scenes and formal visits.

Pros: lead performance, supporting cast performance

Cons: writing quality, originality

#5 10 Things I Hate About You
2.0

The elaborate prom bun feels distinctly dated and earns an explicit thumbs-down.

Pros: entertainment value, humor

Cons: realism, originality

#6 Klara and the Sun
2.0

Lyonne’s conspicuous wig is criticized as bizarre and distracting.

Pros: lead performance, visual style

Cons: emotional impact, directing quality
