Movie Reviews of Freaky Friday
Movie Review: Freaky Friday
Summary: 4 Stars
In this case, the remake is somewhat of an improvement on the original. I have been a Disney fan for more than 60 years. As an old timer, I tend to prefer the classics. However, this particular movie has a better story line and much better acting.
Jamie Lee Curtis does a great job as usual; and Lindsay Lohan is far better in this role than any of her other efforts to this point. I was pleased to see than the original, slapstick father has been replaced by a believable boyfriend, played by Mark Harmon.
This 'happily ever after' ending leaves room for a sequel, but I hope that Disney won't go there. It is time to stop making Part 2 for every Disney movie. Part 1 is just fine with me.
Summary of Freaky Friday
In the wonderfully entertaining Freaky Friday, teenager Anna (Lindsay Lohan) and her forty-something psychiatrist mom Tess (Jamie Lee Curtis) have sunk into a rut of frustrated bickering--until a magic spell causes them to switch bodies. Suddenly Tess finds herself faced with petty teachers, vicious rivals, and a hunky boy, while Anna has to cope with her mother's neurotic patients as well as her befuddled fiance (Mark Harmon), who doesn't understand why his bride-to-be is suddenly recoiling from his embrace on the eve of their wedding. Both Lohan and Curtis turn in deft, delightful performances, with Curtis showing a surprising flair for physical comedy. The movie even manages to explore serious issues about fractured families, new parents, and adolescent sexuality with honesty and empathy--and without making the story stop dead in its tracks. It's a mother-daughter film that fathers and sons can enjoy just as much. --Bret FetzerIn the tradition of THE PRINCESS DIARIES, Disney's FREAKY FRIDAY is the extremely funny and heartwarming comedy everyone will love. Dr. Tess Coleman (the hilarious Jamie Lee Curtis) and her teenage daughter Anna (rockin' Lindsay Lohan) have one thing in common -- they don't relate to each other on anything. Not clothes or men or Anna's passion to be in a rock band. Nothing. Then one night a little mystic mayhem changes their lives and they wake up to the biggest freak-out ever. Tess and Anna are trapped inside each other's body! But Tess's wedding is Saturday and the two must find a way to switch back -- fast! Literally forced to walk in each other's shoes, will they gain respect and understanding for the other's point of view? Filled with comedy, rock 'n roll and lots of heart, FREAKY FRIDAY is freaking fun everyone can enjoy together
