Hoodwinked

by MrsNormanMaine Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, May 12 '04
Pros: Reese Witherspoon. Keifer Sutherland. Smart, funny script.
Cons: Occasional over the top violence.
It has been an exhausting few weeks around Chateau Maine. I simply haven't had time to tell Mrs. Jerry, my housekeeper, what to prepare for dinner, much less attend to my fans through this column. American Idyl has been a much more overwhelming ...

I don't remember THAT part of Little Red Riding Hood.

by Chris_Maverick , Mar 22 '01
Pros: Quirky characters, brilliant acting, fun script
Cons: Hokey... I think its hokieness works for it, but your mileage may vary.
Matthew Bright is my hero. "Why?" I hear you ask. Well, I'll tell you my internet reading friend. Matthew Bright is my hero because in 1996 he lived the American dream.

When I was a little kid, people used to tell me that you could be anything...

The Whole World Owes Me

by milknchalk , Jul 28 '06
Pros: Performances, Direction, everything.
Cons: None.
Usually the way that I see films is I’ll hear about it over the internet, and obsess about it until I see it. This scenario isn’t true about this film. It is true about the sequel. I first heard about Freeway 2: Confessions of a Trickbaby, so ...

A Violent & Hilarious Masterpiece Led by Reese Witherspoon

by thevoid99 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Sep 07 '01
Pros: A Brilliant Masterpiece led by Reese Witherspoon's confrontational performance.
Cons: The excessive violence and use of profanity is not for everyone.

If there was one person in the movie summer blockbuster that gained stardom, it was Reese Witherspoon for her role in the movie “Legally Blonde” where she played a California dumb blonde who goes to Harvard and becomes a lawyer. Though the film...

Hilarious and Vastly Entertaining Adventure (+ DVD Review)

by JonTurner , Aug 16 '00
Pros: Reese Witherspoon's incredible performance / Hilarious Script / Entertaining Story
Cons: Excess of strong language and violence is sure to discourage many viewers / Intended solely for 18-25 audience
"Freeway" is a darkly comedic, totally modern twist on the Little Red Riding Hood fable straight out of the depths of Matthew Bright's bizarre mind. Oliver Stone took a liking to the script, became executive producer of the film, and hooked...

"Freeway" is Freaky, Funny and Fabulous!

by monilark , Jun 22 '01
Pros: This is a movie full of unexpected twists and turns!
Cons: Not suitable for children or people who hate dark comedies.
I was introduced to this movie by a friend who kept rudely interrupting our telephone conversation to comment on a movie she was watching. Throughout our conversation, she repeatedly made comments like, "Oh my gosh - this is a CRAZY movie!" . . ."You...

Little Red Reese Witherspoon

by lilynaz , Apr 26 '01
Pros: Clever, insightful, very very funny . . .
Cons: . . . in a pretty sick and dark way
OK, the first thing to know is that even though this is loosely based on the tale of Little Red Riding Hood, do not under any circumstances allow children to watch it.

There. Now that I have done my public service for the day, I'll get on...

What most opinions missed

by Bryony , Dec 11 '00
Pros: Everything, just everything
Cons: None
I've read every opinion here about "Freeway," most written by men, all of whom missed a very important point -- the fear most women and older girls have of encountering a man of the Ted Bundy variety, which is exactly what happens in this...

First Post!

by danda , Oct 29 '99
Pros: Reese Witherspoon kicking butt and taking names
Cons: no sequel, yet
Sorry for the title. (You slash-dotters will grasp the significance.) Anyway, I can't believe there aren't any other reviews for this movie. It is one of my all time favorites. It is even more memorable because I had not even heard of it, but I...

Guilty Pleasure

by robbyx , Nov 03 '00
Pros: Darkly funny, sick and twisted
Cons: Dull direction
Freeway is one of those "guilty pleasure" movies. It's trashy, offensive, exceedingly vulgar and brutal, yet somehow wickedly delightful as well. It's also impossible to truly fall in love with Reese Witherspoon until you've seen...

One of the best films of the '90s

by samadhi , Mar 30 '01
Pros: Cliche breaking, politically incorrect, funny, rude, and hilarious
Cons: Some of the more tasteless black jokes will put off many
Reese and Kiefer’s long ‘freeway’ conversation is the centerpiece of the film. This conversation is key to the success of everything else. Its realism sets everything else up. It is the least “over the top” scene of the entire film--only...

Little red Riding Hood...adult style

by Mattels , Dec 13 '00
Pros: plot, acting, setting, script
Cons: violence, not for those under 18
Do you remember the story of Little Red Riding Hood?? Well this is it, except much darker, very twisted and satirical in the extreme. We find however that the basic story line stays true to our little fable.

Reese Witherspoon however is not...

Oh, the drama

by drugged , Jul 04 '00
Pros: Some truly hilarious moments, great dialogue, great main character, shock value
Cons: It's hard to separate Kiefer Sutherland from his character in this movie, even when you see him in different movies.
Sometimes I wonder if I like something, such as a T.V. show, movie, book or drawing, for the right reasons. Then I wonder what the right reasons are. Then I establish that in all likelihood, I like everything for the wrong reasons, or at least different...

Reese gets mad

by calmo28 , Apr 02 '00
Pros: Great story and acting
Cons: None
I have heard from several people that this movie was a great rental. So, i checked it out this weekend. I was excited to see the movie that launched the career of Reese Witherspoon.

If any of you have seen "Election", know that...
