What critics compared Freeway to
The 1996 movie Freeway , starring Kiefer Sutherland and Reese Witherspoon, accomplished some infinitely more interesting variations than what we are presented with here.
Beyond the werewolf gimmick, it's an honest and thoroughly twisted portrait of adolescence that almost achieves the instant-classic status of a "Freeway," the Reese Witherspoon film that made a local sensation a few years back.
