Freaky: No Corpo de um Assassino

This movie was a blast. It's not an academy award winning film lol. It's exactly what I was looking for, a fun Friday night. It made me laugh, had some gory kills, and the acting was good. I never understand the whole "it's not original" argument. Give me a break. It's a good movie.

Here's a role I would never imagined Vince Vaughn doing- but damn glad he did!!! The whole body switching thing (yeah we've seen it a million times, I know) but this despite a familiar premise was sold by the two leads particularly Vaughn who seemed he was having a blast playing killer and highschool senior!

Well written, great acting, and a decent ending.

Worth checking out!!

You can't take Freaky too seriously. If that's what you're looking for in a movie then you should just pass on this one. But if you're just looking for some easy entertainment, mindless fun and some gory scenes then Freaky is a good option. The story has a fast pace so you never get bored, the slashing scenes are funny, inventive and well made. As for the acting it was good from the whole cast. Vince Vaughn plays a character that I would not have expected him to play, and he did it well. Freaky is a good friday night popcorn slasher comedy.

This is a fun film, with a bit of slasher elements and the comedy style surrounding this genre. Now, the added value here is the great pace and the cool performance of Vince Vaughn as a teenage girl. The film is more funny than scary and there is plenty of nice dialogue and moments in there to keep you entertained. 7,5 / 10 freaky fun movie.

It's a little late for a Halloween/slasher movie, but it looks like they really wanted that Friday the 13th release date. And to my surprise, this was way more fun than I thought it would be.

Just when you think it's another generic, teen angst, alcohol-drinking, sex-thirsting movie, the kills start happening. Not only were they gory, but they were also quite creative. The movie just knows exactly what it is and never takes itself too seriously. Plus, watching mean bullies die in horrific ways was just so satisfying to watch. (Hopefully, I'm not the only one...)

More importantly, Vince Vaughn is the reason you should watch this. You have this 6-foot-5 giant of a man running around as a teenage girl. From the way he speaks to his subtle mannerisms, it was just plain funny. He's the man-- or the woman, I mean.

As for the negatives, it mostly has to do with the writing. Basically, everything with the family was boring and predictable. It was probably the most generic part of the movie. They lazily tell you everything you need to know as soon as they're introduced.

I also hate it when movies portray a character as "ugly" or "undesirable" and the actress is anything but. In other words, they want you to believe that Kathryn Newton's Millie is some kind of weirdo loser, but I just never bought it.

There's also a disconnect between Newton's Millie, who is shy, timid and quiet, and Vince Vaughn's Millie, who is girly-girl, talkative and fun. They just felt like different people. There's also, sort of, two endings. There was the natural conclusion, and everything was good, but then it goes on for another 10 minutes, and it was just unnecessary.

Despite some annoying tropes and poor writing, this was a fun, self-aware movie with some horrific kills and really funny body swap moments.

Score: 7 out of 10 Overall: Good

Recommended for: Fans of Vince Vaughn, fans of Freaky Friday with a slasher twist, or fans of watching scumbag bullies get what's coming to them.
