Review
This 1996 box-office failure is
over-the-top, all-over-the-place great fun. Writer/director Matthew
Bright is as clever as he is unabashed. His biggest achievement here
is how he varies between playing it straight and piling it on. And
the result is a wild, raucous film boasting a loud, confident
teenage Reese Witherspoon at full bloom, and a delicately creepy
Kiefer Sutherland as the aptly named Bob Wolverton. Some films turn out to have
nothing to say, Freeway says it all at once – with outside
voice.
