Big Freaking Rat

Well, sure, I didn't really have much of any expectations to this 2020 movie titled "Big Freaking Rat", but still I sat down to watch it on the offbeat chance that it would actually be one of those movies that are so bad that they are actually becoming good.

But "Big Freaking Rat" from writer and Thomas J. Churchill wasn't exactly one of those movies. Sure, it was watchable, but the movie wasn't particularly impressive or memorable.

First of all, the storyline and the characters were just too bland, and at times actually pointless. And that was something that the movie suffered from, to be bluntly honest.

As for the special effects, well... This is not a top notch multi-million dollar special effects movie, no doubt about it. This is a low budget and low practical special effects movie, pure and simple. I will say, however, that the rat was actually working out well in favor of the movie. Sure, it was horribly fake and you never saw it in full length, size and view. But there was just something odd about it and it worked out well in the way they opted to present and make use of the massive rat on the screen.

However, the rat just wasn't enough to salvage the movie, and it wasn't an outstanding movie experience. I am rating "Big Freaking Rat" a mere three out of ten stars. Good enough for a single viewing, but it is the type of movie that you will forget about once seen and never return to watch it a second time. "Big Freaking Rat" was not a glorious addition to the creature feature genre.

I wish I could articulate using words the sheer amazement I experienced while watching this film. Im not going to lie I waited days to watch this movie and by each passing day my excitement and adrenaline grew stronger. The fear I felt before watching this film also continued to grow by the second as I am not brave when it comes to horror. Thankfully I had a trusty friend near by who would protect me from these big freaking rats. By the time I sat down with my friend to watch it all bets were off and I knew that this, this was gonna be the movie of a century. All my fears left me and I was able to enjoy the movie for what it truly was, a masterpiece. Thankful for the people who were willing to watch this with me and also for the wonderful producer who made this movie possible.

Only thing left to do is share it with the world, go forth and prosper.

Out of all the movies I've seen my fifteen years of being a film critic, I have never came across such a life changing film. The movie revolves around a rat that consumes toxic waste and becomes a BIG FREAKING RAT. It has violence, psychological horror, suspenseful scenes, and two separate amazing storylines. It all ties in together with an upgraded Elvis Presley-like man and creates the most iconic scene (I still quote to my beautiful wife) to ever exist, ",..Now that's a big freaking rat."

It saddens my heart to not see anymore very intense and horrifying psychological movies anymore. Back in the day, it was the big SLIME, but now it's Big FREAKING RAT.

This is a classic movie for many generations to come, I recommend to everyone in Wisconsin, U. S.

Thank you for reading my review which I poured my entire heart and soul out to. <3.

This movie changed my life. It revolutionized what I think about rats. I never took the time to consider they could get that freaking big.

Only one other review at the time of posting, so I thought I would also give this movie a shot.

It's only redeeming feature is that it watches more like an amateur flick, made by a bunch of friends over the weekend. Part of me wants to give an extra star or two for that reason, but Churchill has too many credits to his name to not know better.

Jokes - such as they are - drag on far too long, and were never funny to begin with. Acting is flat, and dialogue is just bad. More time is devoted to bashing Millenials than the monster rat. No real plot or story, and the climax is rushed.

Not even worth it on a lark.
