Freaky Faron (PG) 5.5

Freaky Faron (2006): When she was 11, young Faron Hallowell was sent away to a mental institution for shooting and nearly killing a local weatherman--a secret mission she claimed was assigned to her by alien beings. (5.1)

Director: John Ross
Stars: Courtney Halverson, Lydia Milner and Carly Hayes

Premise of the movie is good. It is the delivery of it that was weak. The screenplay needed more fleshing out. It feels like this is a starter sci-fi for the 10-13 year-old girls. Acting wasn't bad at all. The story's unusual angles could have been exploited for more action. My Rating: 5.5
