Do you think she is pretty, good-looking, stunning, or what?

I think that she is a very good actress but not particularly beautiful. She has a patrician air and depending of the character could look attractive, normal or ugly. She could pass for Toni Collette's sister. She doesn't have the exuberance of Bellucci, Jolie or beauty of Theron or Kidman. She has develop her craft to a very sophisticated level. I like her in a bunch of movies like Notes on a scandal, Elizabeth, Carol and Blue Jasmine, less in Aviator, Babel or Monuments and very little in Hanna, Indiana Jones or Cinderella. I think that her forte is drama, where due to her histrionics she excels.

Eh, I respect your opinion and everything but there's very little I agree with. I find Cate more beautiful and alluring than all of those actresses you named put together, and I'm certainly not alone. Just search Cate's name on twitter, tumblr or any social media site and that's clearly apparent. Different strokes for different folks.
I do agree though that Cate can play attractive or unattractive and that's part of why I like her so much. She's very unconcerned about playing the 'beautiful' or 'sexy' female character in every project she undertakes, it's the content of the character that interests her and how challenging the role will be for her.
I'm with the previous poster in this thread that said it's one thing to say that she's not your personal cup of tea (to use a very English phrase), but it's quite frankly ridiculous to try and proclaim that she's not actually attractive. She's an incredible actor (the best, if you ask me), but she still probably wouldn't have got to where she is and been offered the kind of roles she has if she wasn't lucky enough to be beautiful too. The Hollywood film industry is a shallow place, always has been, always will be. -

Ditto You said it much better than I could. IMHO, she is stunning, even when she seems exhausted. Her face is like an artist's canvas and I'm certain the makeup ppl. love to paint it. Her silly wit is like no other; i.e. so quick, intelligent, and well-informed on whatever subject she is asked to discuss. Just as an outside observer and respect for her work, it appears that many who have worked with her find it impossible not to fall in love with her.
