Freaktana A Major Disappointment

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Michael Ledo Alicia (Juno Temple) visits her cousin Sarah (Emily Browning) in Chile. Sarah is suddenly called back to Santiago to take exams (weak plot point) while Alicia remains isolated with Sarah's inhospitable friends. Brink (Michael Cera) is a tag-a-long who keeps hitting on Alicia who does not like him. In fact I didn't like him. He was immature, prissy, dorky, and creepy all rolled up into one. Barbara (Catalina Sandino Moreno), the host, was cold while Agustin (Agustín Silva) an amateur hypnotist and Sarah's BF lacked personality.The film was boring for the first hour as sleepless, jet lagged, Alicia didn't want to be on the island anymore than the other people wanted her there. We get clues early on that there are issues. After the first hour, the film turns weird, but I found it lacking in entertainment value because the characters and dialouge had been dead for too long.This film is not a horror film, nor is it an action-thriller. It is a drama which teases you into thinking it is a thriller. Not something I will own, and regretted the rental.Parental Guide: F-bomb (2 languages) Nudity (Juno Temple) sex?

Lasse Enemark Kastrup First of all I don't think anyone could miss the point of this movie, as much as Claudio Carvalho did, who currently got his review on the "front page" by calling it weird and boring, while rating it a 2. This movie has such a psychologically depth, you rarely find in movies nowadays. The movie will make you keep questioning who or what is behind all these terrible things that happens and how it started, all the way to the end of it, and even beyond. Did someone drug Alice? Was she haunted by evil spirits? Or was she just plain paranoid and mentally unstable? Or perhaps none of the above - or even all of the above? One of the many points of this movie, is that no matter how civilized and educated we are as humans in todays society, in worst case scenario, we will still believe in something that goes beyond our comprehension - and that there is more between heaven and earth, then we know of. I won't rate it no where near a 10, because I've seen way better, but it's definitely not a boring movie (depends what kind of genre you're into). So sure, if you just want a movie where you can sit back and laugh about it and predict how it's gonna end an half hour before it actually ends, this is definitely not the movie for you. Howeever if you like psychological thrillers - including some spiritual aspects - this is your movie. This movie is not for the narrow-minded!

Laura AnnRose To say I enjoyed the film implies the wrong responsive emotions. It is a very dark film: immediate stimulation, clear cut answers and jump scares do not come into it at all. The film is based around the concept of paranoia and anxiety, as experienced by the main character Alicia. The idea is that Alicia begins mentally unstable, then due to circumstance and unintended aggravation she quickly spirals downward. I am glad I watched this film and can honestly say I never found it tedious. I love the genuinely caring and involved friendship between Sarah and Alicia. I feel as though friendships are either watered down or made very 2-dimensional in many films. It is always usually about the love interests and other more intense relationships. Though I honestly love seeing warm, intense and in depth friendships played out on screen. As was seen in this Movie. Do not be perturbed by the 5 star rating! This film is worth a watch!

whozthemummy Good acting but very bad and boring storyline. It is not at all a horror film. It's just very weird and unusual. The majority of the film was complicated and let you interpret things in the film on what you thought, because it didn't explain or go through why was happening. And I still don't understand what was happening even after the film. The ending is dull and completely uneventful and uninteresting. I think the film is related to Juno's drug use and her medication, but this is still unclear and I found it was a waste of my time. She is hypnotised at one point and another main sexual character made her dance like a 'whore' and tell her to give her cousins boyfriend a 'blowjob'. It has odd sexual references that are simply strange and not funny or amusing. I doubt that this is anyones type of film that they'd want to watch; I wouldn't recommend.
