Freaktana A Major Disappointment

Tayyab Torres Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

matukonyc1 I can only imagine that the rave reviews here are solely due to fanatic adoration of Michael J. Fox. This is the worst sort of movie-making, no better than than the worst amateur effort. It's embarrassing to think that Fox had to do this sort of thing, and that in the 80's-90's Hollywood failed him and us so miserably.It's dull, poorly conceived, and poorly executed. Miscast, misguided and miscarried. Bad writing, no story, no production values, no plot. It's not even about anything, much less what it aims to be about: show business. Hands down, it's the worst movie Fox ever made, and that's saying a lot, because most of his movies were unworthy and unforgiving of a great talent.

sarajb16 I still and always will enjoy watching Michael J. Fox. Some of the children auditioning were well, obnoxious! Lane and Lauper are entertaning, but the girl who played Angie was an ugly annoying little troll who thought she knew everything. I didn't think she came off as natural either. On a scale of 1 to 10, I give this movie 6.

Creepy Girl from Catalina This is an underrated movie with one of Fox's most subtley comical moments. The irony was not lost watching Fox portray an ex-sitcom star. Watching Fox as a smarmy, sleazy agent was so wonderfully different from anything he had done up to that point. The movie was made for watching after sleeping in over half the day on Sunday. Also, a great turns by Nathan Lane, who I didn't recognize in the role for many years, and a young David Krumholtz who is going to ascend the throne as the next John Turturro.

rbverhoef For some reason I have always liked Michael J. Fox from Family Ties and Back to the Future to Spin City and the voice of Stuart Little. That is also the reason that Life with Mikey is not a total disaster.As a family film it is okay, but as a comedy it is nothing. Fox is nice and sometimes you can laugh about him, but that's it for the jokes. It also feels as if the movie isn't really finished. It ends kind of sudden.5/10 is the best I can give it, but at least two points are added because of Michael J. Fox.
