Small film that is done very well. The weight loss is amazing. I have watched three times . All three main actors give a good profitable. Lily also wrote a song for the movie.

All in all a good movie. I see very well the heavy points that are being made. It's just that in this film one character clearly outgrew another. And the cute attempt to gloss over that at the end was disappointing to me. But it clearly shows that they drew me into the movie for me to make that statement! Lily Mae Harrington was outstanding.

That, actually, didn't feel embarrassing - which is no mean feat considering the genre. Films focused around adolescence have a tendency toward awkwardness. They also often have balancing issues; over-focusing one one aspect while missing another - thus failing to hit the relevant sweet spot. Somehow MacAllister McDonald manages to avoid ALL the potholes set out before him and delivers a delicate and relevant study of the adolescent mindset. Without being pretentious Some Freaks lures in the viewers into the teen spirit and keeps them there until the credits start roll. Casting and acting are also beneficial to the end result; exploring a rebellious period in a low key fashion. Thanks for that.

High school is a terrible place. Matt is in his senior year of high school and has to wear and eye patch. Obviously this makes him a target. As he puts it later he spends his entire day just trying to make it through. So he is caught off guard when he meets and falls for a girl. And overweight girl. Who, like him, has become a "freak" due to being over weight and perhaps how she dresses due to it. Matt falls hard but eventually the girl, Jill, has to go back to her home and go to college. It is here when the movie turns on its head. Jill secretly loses weight and dresses more conservatively and Matt gets a "glass" eye. But Matt isn't ready to trust in Jill's feelings for him now that she isn't a freak and spends most of his time sabotaging her. This leads to a wrenching fight and some self destructive behavior giving them some good lessons. Some movies have taken up the theme before when one member of the relationship changes ... is it really the same relationship? This does an especially nice job at exploring that though, I can't say it was a fun ride. More like an important one.

I like this movie very much, For example, the movie really set their goal and they actually put something inside the movie that actually meant something. It's similar to a cause-effect type of thing.The characters knew their role and they played it very nice. This movie is just amazing!

This movie had such strong potential. The first half of the movie had complex, well-written characters. Beautifully acted too. The main characters were charming and yes, they did not fit the status quo and were victims of realistic bullying. The second half of the movie took those same characters and made you hate them to the point of no return. The male lead even does something totally unforgivable at one point. The acting was the only saving grace. This movie could have been inspiring. Instead it left me with a feeling of true disappointment.

This is one of those movies that leaves you groaning at the screen "Don't do that!" I hate the term Coming of Age movie, but if it's a term this would be a movie it would fit. It's a gritty gross feeling movie because everything's dark and has that grimy feeling when the camera makes everything look worse than it is and they try to make the kids look like they live in a dead-end situation that they can't get out of. Everything is so depressing from the school to home life even when they go out to have fun. And what you've got here is a young man who's lost his eye and we don't even know why they never tell us. And then there's a young lady who's a rebel from her clothes to her bleached out covered with teal hair who is overweight and according to what I read 250 lb. And then her cousin is actually the boy's best friend and he's gay. But the worst part of all is he's one of those gays that has to throw it in your face all the time and make descriptive comments about what he wants to do two other men should make you uncomfortable. Because the straight friends in the group don't go around making graphic comments about what they want to do 2 their boyfriends and girlfriends and it leads to really bad feelings in the group so that they don't want to hang around with the gay best friend / cousin. The guy and the girl end up in a very serious relationship very much and love but she ends up accepted to college back on the other side of the country and has to leave just a couple of months into being out there. When he goes out to visit her to set up getting ready to move out there, she has a surprise for him and he has a surprise for her, he's gotten himself a prosthetic eye and she's lost 50 lbs. But more than just losing 50 lbs, she's also changed her rebellious ways which is what made him fall in love with her. I always refuse to put in spoilers because I don't want to ruin a movie for people, but I'll say this much, other people they went to high school with somehow end up in her woven in their college life and end up causing a lot of trouble. And in the end it's a horrible ending, you don't know what's going to happen to any of them they leave you completely hanging with a horrible ending I don't recommend seeing this movie I think it's awful there's just too much where they try to get you invested in these characters then they twist your guts to make you angry and then they just dumped you in the end. Watch with caution.

I went to see the movie as part of Fantasia in Montreal. I wasn't sure what to expect given that fantasia digs into very deep extremes at times but was really positively taken aback by the movie. The harsh reality of people making choices based on where they're coming from. You truly can't judge someone you don't know. There was a Q&A at the end of the projection and I agree with the person who commented that the score fit so well with the movie that I didn't realize there WAS a score until I consciously thought, wait, I have to listen to the score, this is part of why I'm here: Walter Sickert! It's only the second time that I go to a movie premiere where so many of the actors actually show up for a Q&A at the end and that was truly awesome. You see them for 2 hours on the big screen and get attached to them and then, boom, they're there, 10 feet from you. Wow! I was expecting a movie mostly made in Rhodes-Island by people from RI but that was a surprise as well to see actors from all over. It truly is also a story of transformation. There was this great question about the main character's transformation and how she was coached by the same crew as the one in "the biggest loser", etc. The actors were AWESOME, I made sure to take a couple of pics during the Q&A so that I could take them out when some of them become super famous :) Eli Henry: I either have seen him somewhere else or am channeling that I'll see him soon on ever bigger screens soon. I loved that he kept converting Farenheit to Celcius for us Montrealers :) And Jill: amazing! Oh, only "not sure" part of this movie is when it starts with the "shoulder mounted?" camera. I'm always leery for these kinds of shots, they make me dizzy so was glad that it was only the first shot and then things got stable again (very minor). Great shot but just a personal thing. I hope this movie goes far and wide into as many festivals as possible because it is so good to see. I'd watch it again to catch more details, great movie. I should add: the characters were great. You could believe in their motives/reactions/background/etc. I hate when you watch a movie and think they make dumb decisions that make no sense. You truly get sucked in by your image and sometimes the only way you can change how people see you is by changing your image. There was this TED talk that proved that just your posture can change how you're viewed. So, is it "selling out" to change your image just to match what you want to project? To match your mental image? And when you change your image, how long does it take for "others" to accept the new image or to ditch you because you don't match their mental image anymore? So many thoughts after this movie. I wish I had asked this question to Lily Mae Harrington (Jil, the main character). After all she LIVED this transformation in this movie and might live through some of these questions. Does your proximity change because you don't fit in their mental image anymore? You don't fit in that box that they put you into? Don't we all do that? Aren't we all judging someone in 2 seconds and if we can't fit someone in a box fast enough, we ask questions until we can make them fit in some kind of mental box? Repeat: each person is unique and can change and is allowed to evolve and change. Embrace change, embrace diversity :)

Some Freaks is a love story between two people who are essentially outcasts in their environment. You will enjoy it if you are looking for something that is different from most mainstream romantic stories. Some people argued that being overweight or wearing an eyepatch does not make a person a freak and that the film presented the idea of that in a false way. The two main characters are not freaks because of their physical appearance but probably perceive themselves as ones in my opinion. It is hard to feel normal when your peers push you away and you keep hearing mean comments wherever you turn. The need to change and belong may become a necessity even if that means suppressing your personality and becoming like people you actually do not like. The characters are in that age where they care what other people have to say about them, they might pretend to be strong but everyone at that age cares, those who actually do not are rare and quite blessed. All of that was portrayed well in my opinion. It is true that there are some clichés present but it does not distort the message of the story which is the most important thing. Hats of to all the actors for doing a wonderful job as well. Definitely recommended if you are looking for a love story that feels a bit more real that most of them out there.
