Vermutlich ist es paradox die Kritik eines der besten Filme des Jahres mit einem Blick darauf zu beginnen, was mich am Blockbuster-Kino der letzten Jahre stört. Zu erklären, weshalb das italienische Erwachsenenmärchen “Freaks Out” so fantastisch ist, bedeutet aber auch, aufzuzeigen, was “die Anderen” gefühlt komplett verlernt haben.

Unfortunately, the writing here felt a little all over the place for me. There are some entertaining sequences,…
