My review
I heard a lot of good reviews about this movie being good so figure to review it for this week and I don’t think it is a horror movie but plot sounds a little scary I just hope in end I be agree with the ones who review this that it is a great movie after all.
Movie starts off with nice music but it getting creepy sort of horror theme there slowing down then we see a girl looking out window then her dad says don’t look out window wonder why he keep her so undercover and scared to let her out in world I hope the reason is huge not sure who plays chole the little girl but in first five mins of watching her acting is very good as well.
Back to story the father maybe die as he seems to get worst with blood on eyes then she opens the door and see a woman screaming or something indeed a little jump scared there maybe I was wrong this has a little horror in it then she gets a book called Mr snowcone and Princess then she asks girl to bring her ice cream and she did very creepy it like she told her to do I think this is her power well girl try to bring her ice cream but father stop her but girl mom came and it Barry mom from the flash well same actress who play his mom though this get weird as she ends up in the same room with the girl then she ask her to be here mom very odd writing there didn’t tell how she got there fast.
Then later father comes home and does not bring her the ice cream because look like he was shot so while her dad is out cold she goes out to ice truck the guy sounds creepy but should she trust him or not is question but she does so guess she finally gets out of house maybe this guy is not too bad after all ok he is little odd but then they throw one heck of twist that he is her grandpapa maybe and also the only way for her to see him again if dad is knock out.
Ok writing for this is odd one as girl see her mom in room and then she said your not real and when she opens the door her mom is gone not sure about that maybe it was in her mind or power to see dead people probably in her mind though.
Seems like when dad is a sleep weird things happen she see her friends they tease her though then that house has some creepy vibe in that for sure will say soundtrack is very good of this movie as well.
After watching 44 mins into the film still have no clue what the heck is going on yet but it does give you a little bit of answers not too much yet but at 54 mark it gets odd as Mr snowcone become a priest and talks to cop too me I think Mr Snowcone is probably the one who after her and her father or he something powerful force.
Then father jumps out of no where and later pays neighbor to take his daughter but that did not work out as she got in her mom friend mom and then she freaks out and call the cop I guess some of there powers look to be hearing what and then little girl had the cop stab her with pen and almost kill her as well.
This probably one of most weird plot I see but will say it is interesting story though even though let’s first half was little bit hard to follow some.
Last 25 mins did pay off some as she trying to save her mom but her grandparent was killed saving her then police chole use her powers to help her mom go free and her mom has powers too seems like this family has powers bad news in end father dies but her mom makes though and saves her but it ended with them flying up in the sky poor poor ending though did not help much though good movie just a poor ending.
Well say acting was good story was ok needed more to understand what the heck this family was about we see what powers they use but needed a little bit of story though but will say effects and soundtrack though but again they didn’t give you a lot on story behind the family if they would add that little bit more would of been too me could of them been aliens or something or just hero team don’t even though the ending was not worst I see could of been better but with that ending will say maybe there be a part 2 not sure this was years ago and think they would of have one made by now not sure in the end will say this movie was good but will say indeed worth see it.
I give freaks (2019) or (2018) a rating of 6/10
