Audience Member 78% Courtney Halverson is this film. Good for no props, and cash. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member This is not a movie you should see, but I gave it one and a half stars because of it's star, Courtney Halverson. Halverson is a newcomer, who hasn't done much, but she was terrific and gave a little credibility to an otherwise horrible movie. Freaky Faron was listed as Sci-Fi/Fantasy, but in reality, it's a movie that could have aired on the Disney Channel. The plot is ridiculously stupid and is played out by actors who have hardly done anything before! Halverson was funny and entertaining as the freaky girl, who seems to be psychic and smarter than every one around her. Aside from that, this movie is not worth the reel it was recorded on. I find myself having a hard time explaining to you just how bad this thing was, I mean it was so bad, that I can't even begin to describe the story for you and that in and of itself should tell you to avoid it! Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Courtney Halverson singlehandedly saves this movie. The plot premise is interesting, but doesn't take advantage of the potential it promises during Faron's hearing. She supposedly "knows" all sorts of Jason Bourne-like stuff, but none of that knowledge is put to use other than her tendency to sneak up on the unsuspecting like a ninja. Her relationship with her mother is strange, leaving me wondering during most of the film whether her mother is an alien. When the two of them finally sort things out, I'm left wondering where the chips fell. I agree with other reviews I've read that suggest the ending falls flat. The loose ends are tied up for the most part. The Fedora man's final fate is less fleshed out than I would have liked to see. Some interaction from the Guardians would have added a lot to this film and would have offered an opening for a sequel. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Kimmy N Was amazing great acting looked real. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/14/12 Full Review Audience Member A lo-fi tween noir with sci-fi touches that exists at the intersection of deadpan, awkward, endearing, and vaguely amateurish. Where did this movie come from? Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member The synopsis was better than the movie. It made it out to be much more than it was. The movie was under-whelming. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
