Audience Member I first noticed Kelly Marie Tran in a show called Sorry For Your Loss, with Elizabeth Olsen, and was excited to give this film a try. Let me just say she gives a standout performance that shows her deep commitment to the role. She portrays a motivational speaker grappling with generational trauma, bringing real emotional depth and growth to the character. If you’re in the mood for an eerie film with a touch of gore and excellent acting, Control Freak delivers. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/06/25 Full Review Reese L It might seem like a common horror movie, but it's more brutal than one expected. Kelly Marie Tran shines completely and delves into a terrifying atmosphere that hides big surprises that you can't miss. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/21/25 Full Review SkyRo P I went into Control Freak excited to see Kelly Tran take on a darker role. Tran, who many know and love as the voice of Raya in Raya and the Last Dragon, is a wonderful actor with a lot of range. But this film, honestly, was a huge letdown. The story centers on a woman whose body is overtaken by a demon from her home country — a possession that drives her from a successful motivational speaker into someone entirely unpredictable and dangerous. It’s a premise with potential, but the execution fell flat. As the possession deepens, we watch Tran’s character lose credibility, relationships, and control over her own life. The dramatic descent could have made for a powerful thriller, but instead it felt messy and disjointed. The writing seemed unsure of what story it wanted to tell, and the direction made some awkward choices that kept me from feeling invested in the character’s struggles. I appreciate Kelly Tran’s talent — she’s a great actor and a wonderful Disney princess — but this film simply didn’t do her justice. The weak script and confusing direction made it hard for me to connect with the story or care about its outcome. At the end of the day, Control Freak was a missed opportunity. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/16/25 Full Review Christian K Even if she wasn't being inhabited by a hereditary demon that wants her to kill herself, the writing of the main character makes her impossible to root for or care about at all. Also, she beat the demon because????????? Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 05/26/25 Full Review Angela W This is true horror.
