Is it correct grammar to say too perfect?

"Too perfect" is grammatically correct, but it can be a bit redundant. Here's why:

It depends on the context:

* "Too perfect" as an exaggeration: You can use it to emphasize that something is *so* perfect it's almost unbelievable or suspicious. For example, "Her life seemed too perfect, like it was all staged."

* "Too perfect" as a negative: It can also imply that something is *overly* perfect and therefore undesirable. For example, "The movie was too perfect, it felt formulaic."

More precise alternatives:

* "Perfectly" or "flawlessly" if you want to focus on the perfection.

* "Unnaturally perfect" or "suspiciously perfect" if you want to convey a sense of doubt.

* "Overly perfect" or "too polished" if you want to emphasize the negative.

Ultimately, the best choice depends on the specific meaning you want to convey.
