Freeway


Freeway (1996)

So, Freeway, what's there to say? it's a great movie, and an awesome interpretation of the classic *little red riding hood*
We get to follow Vanessa Lutz (Reese Witherspoon) whom after her mom and her moms boyfriend gets arrested she flee the social service to go to her grandmother.
But on the road the car breaks down so she gets a ride with this man (Kiefer Sutherland, aka the wolf) who seems nice but turns out to be a serial killer.
So when Vanessa finds out he's been lying she goes crazy and shoot him full of bullets.
Then we get to follow her after this event to the prison, then fleeing the prison and then going to see her gran.
It's a great movie, morbid, fucked up and absolutely wonderful... and it's not everyday you get to see Reese Witherspoone go crazy, even though she's probably not that much. She's just freaking cool in the movie!

I'll have to give it a solid 7/10. The movie where a nice suprise, didn't really have any excpectations on it, just wanted some light weight entertainment but got the full on.

I like this movie too, and it's fun to se Reese play a badass for a change. =)
