Pretty Broken follows a conventional dramatic structure that highlights the strength of its main character. By placing a woman in a high-stakes survival scenario, the film challenges traditional views of women's capabilities. However, the film lacks depth in representing various aspects of diversity, such as LGBTQ+ identities, racial diversity, and characters with disabilities. This narrow focus limits the film's broader social impact.
