What a fun movie! I can’t remember the last time I walked out of the theater having had so much fun. Let’s face it, when it comes to horror movies it’s all pretty much been done. When I saw Freaky was a Blumhouse production, though, I got excited. They are great at what they do.
So what they did in Freaky was take a horror theme and add a ton of comedy into it. Vince Vaughn nailed this role. He was so much fun to watch as a girl. The fun that they had with the body switching was hilarious.
There was an underlying current to the movie addressing being bullied. There are so many scenes that have very good messages to those who suffer through that. My hope for the audience is that someone sitting there will walk out feeling a lot more confident and empowered over bullies. It doesn’t take fists to put them in heir place.

The theater that I saw it in was filled to capacity, and I’m so happy about that. One of the great things to add to your enjoyment is when the crowd gets into it. There were three separate times that the audience clapped and cheered. A great time was had by all.
So my suggestion is if you want to go out and have some fun during this interruption of normal life due to CoVid, see Freaky. I can guarantee that you won’t think of all the problems in life for at least one hour and forty-one minutes.
Grade: A+
About The Peetimes: I really recommend the 1st Peetime. It gives you plenty of time, and was already seen in the trailers. The 2nd Peetime is just for Emergencies.
There are extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of Freaky. (What we mean by Anything Extra.)

What people are saying
about the RunPee app.This is a great app. I wish more people would support it
This app provides info about movies, reviews, ratings from people who have seen it before and after viewing. It has links to info about the movies. It let’s you know when there will be a lull in the action and how long it will last. If you want to know what happens during that time, you can check the brief synopsis (you have to click a link, so no accidental spoilers). It has a timer you can set (silent) to alert you to a break. It also tells you whether there is anything extra during or after the credits. It’s really a wonderful app. I’ve subscribed for a couple of years to support the developers, but I noticed some of the links to provide feedback didn’t seem to work today. They also made it free, with voluntary donations to see the pee-times. If you haven’t tried it, I encourage you to do so, and subscribe if you like it. I really hope the app is supported so it can continue to be maintained!
Developers note: RunPee doesn’t make much money but it supports itself nicely. Donations are appreciated, but not required. We’ll add as many movies to the database as we can until there are no more movie theaters.
