Barbara Shulgasser Common Sense Media Uneven underdog superhero tale has violence and language. Rated: 2/5 Sep 22, 2020 Full Review Wendy Shreve Featuring Film Watch for more movies featuring Cornelia Gröschel. Her talent saves Freaks from circling the drain. Sep 18, 2020 Full Review John Serba Decider Wants to be a scrappy underdog of the superhero genre, but it lacks the imagination to pull it off. Sep 3, 2020 Full Review Daniel Hart Ready Steady Cut Unfortunately, Freaks: You're One of Us becomes a victim to a stronger first half. Rated: 2.5/5 Sep 2, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

PM F If you're coming at this expecting MCU, you'll be disappointed. But if you approach this wondering what would happen in the real world if people started being born with extraordinary abilities and how would the government respond to that - this is that pic. It keeps a narrow focus on a few people who've been impacted so you get a little more character development than your typical super hero flick, and more of the emotional toll - but the inferences of greater implications on society (for good or for ill) are all there. A small movie but one with a soul that is, by turns, sweet, gritty, sad, uplifting and edgy. I'd totally watch a sequel (and I need to know Marek's outcome!!!) The lead actress was great in finding the right balance of emotion in all the chaos. Definitely worth watching. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/06/24 Full Review Sam H I can't believe I made it about 3/4 through before I realized my time had been wasted on a horribly directed, written, and acted story. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/26/23 Full Review Miguel ngel M Siempre sabes qué va a suceder a continuación. Nada espectacular, ni el guión ni los efectos, ni las actuaciones. Pobre en todos los sentidos. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/22/22 Full Review Audience Member OK, this is a pretty bad super power movie with bad acting that transcends the bad dubbing. But it has a few comic moments and the very adorable Cornelia Gröschel so there's that. It ending suggests that this was to be volume 1 of a franchise. That isn't going to happen. I can't resist watching any movie with a 0% rating because, well… how bad can it be? And this one is undoubtedly bad, but it's not unwatchable, not any worse than some 50-60% movies I've seen. It's a mystery and it's nice to see that viewers agree with me at a 27% Fresh rating; not good, but not a totally unwatchable piece of crap. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review tom m Another foreign language overdub I watched merely because Netflix kept serving it up as something I "should" watch. Mildly entertaining. The overdub wasn't all that great and a bit distracting. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review robert p I appreciate that this is a German Film but if Germany wants to enter the entertainment area they must do *a lot* better. This movie was approximately almost two hours long, frankly I turned it off before the ending because of so much human emotion it was overflowing.
