	Freaky Friday (2003): Reviews
		What makes Freaky Friday a charmer isn't how far-out things get for this mother and daughter, but how sweet and distinctly un-freaky a kid, her mom and their love for each other can be.
		Freaky Friday version 2003 is a shinier, snappier animal, partly because young girls now dress like Avril Lavigne, and partly because Jamie Lee Curtis has her best role in years and knows it.
		Freaky Friday mines a lot of laughs from common misapprehensions adults have about adolescent life, with fun bits of observation about schoolwork, dating, and other practices where kids have to bend the rules in order to survive.

	FREAKY FRIDAY (PG): ChildCare Action Project (CAP) Media Analysis Report MAR23076
		Freaky Friday is a "13-PG", meaning it earned a CAP final score in the range earned by PG-13 movies (67 to 55 out of 100) of the comparative baseline database.
		Freaky Friday was so filled with teen arrogance at parental authority that it earned a red CAPCon Alert light, meaning the score in one or more of the CAP investigation areas was lower than 54 out of 100.
		I haven't seen the original Freaky Friday (1976) and cannot say how the new age version is different than the original, but you can bet that if we can afford it I will do a comparative study if only to reveal the decay of morality and ethics of modern entertainment.

		Freaky Friday takes place, of course, on a Friday the 13th in the late Seventies.
		Perhaps the most remarkable thing about Freaky Friday is that Foster and Harris are both entirely convincing as their alternate personalitied-selves.
		Freaky Friday is perhaps the most underrated of Disney's family films made in the 70's, but who can compete with Hayley Mills, Don Knotts, and Herbie the Love Bug?

	BBC - Films - Freaky Friday
		Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan get their freak on in Freaky Friday, as a mother and daughter forced to walk a day in each other's shoes.
		Likewise, young Lohan is wonderfully wry, absent-mindedly hiking up her friend's hipsters to cover that bare midriff, and matter-of-factly telling her peers: "I don't believe in any contact with the opposite sex.
		Freaky Friday is sprightly, family-friendly fare which just about manages to keep its head above the concluding gush of syrupy sentiment.

		The 1976 version seems dated, and many of the girls who saw this movie during its initial theatrical run now have children around the same age they were at the time.
		Freaky Friday is aimed squarely at the "tween" audience, and they will universally enjoy this movie, as will mothers who end up accompanying their offspring to theaters.
		Freaky Friday is motion picture cotton candy - sweet while it lasts, easily disposed of, and insubstantial.

		Overall, "Freaky Friday" is an above-average and very enjoyable Disney flick from the period.
		The car chase scene at the end is too long, but otherwise the story hangs together (as long as you buy the premise of mother and daughter switching bodies) and is a lot of fun.
		Freaky Friday was one of Disney's attempts to recapture this market and this film performed.

		On a freaky Friday morning, a busy psychiatrist and her 15-year-old daughter wake up to find they have magically switched bodies.
		Disney's Freaky Friday, a remake of the studio's 1976 classic starring Barbara Harris and Jodie Foster as a mother and daughter who switch bodies for a day, is certainly one of them.
		This update of Mary Rodgers' novel, however, is fittingly contemporary: Tess (Jamie Lee Curtis) is a busy psychiatrist as well as a published author, and her teenage daughter Anna (Lindsay Lohan) is a guitarist in a garage band.

		To get through this 'freaky Friday', Annabel has to fake her way through the wedding plans and deal with her mother's patients, while Tess has to deal with Annabel's wannabe boyfriend who now desires the older woman after he finds how cool she suddenly is.
		Freaky Friday (1977) was one of the most enjoyable hits of the heyday of Disney live-action comedies, pairing the great, alas now-forgotten Barbara Harris and a 14 year old Jodie Foster as the mother and daughter.
		This remake comes as part of the modern, Michael Eisner-presided Disney era where the studio has embarked on fanatical process of remaking and sequelizing their past live-action and animation hits over and over again like they were engaged in a remainder sale.

		The new-millennium Freaky Friday has disgruntled teen Anna Coleman (Lindsay Lohan) living, sans father, with her uptight therapist-author mom Tess (Jamie Lee Curtis) and bratty brother Harry (Ryan Malgarini).
		The angst between the two reaches a fever pitch on the eve of Tess' wedding rehearsal: Anna wants to ditch the proceedings for an all-important band audition, but Tess sees the conflict as a show of resentment toward imminent step-dad Ryan (Mark Harmon).
		Freaky Friday was previously remade for TV in 1995 with Shelley Long and Gaby Hoffman in the leads.

		In FREAKY FRIDAY, Lindsay Lohan, playing her second switching part in a Disney remake, manages to be even cuter than she was in THE PARENT TRAP.
		By that simple yardstick, FREAKY FRIDAY is a huge success, since I laughed long, hard, loud and often as did the rest of our enthusiastic audience.
		The setup for the plot has Tess Coleman (Jamie Lee Curtis) temporally trading bodies with her fifteen-year-old daughter Anna (Lohan), thanks to an older Chinese woman who wants them to appreciate each other's trials and tribulations.

	Freaky Friday - Movie Review
		Hitting the nail on the head of mother-daughter relationships -- and doing so with amusing savvy and imaginative good humor -- Disney's "Freaky Friday" remake is such a sublimely fun-for-all matinee delight that it cleansed my palate of the sour taste of every bad movie I've seen this summer.
		A vast improvement over the 1976 "Freaky Friday" starring Jodie Foster and Barbara Harris (which was itself a couple notches better than the insipidly juvenile fare that Disney cranked out at the time), the movie does have a few overwrought plot points:
		Annabell's being a guitarist in a rock band is a transparent machination used to set up a scheduling conflict between the wedding rehearsal and the band's potential "big break" audition in the last act.

		Freaky Friday, staring Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan was this film.
		‘Freaky Bloopers’ offers a few minutes of laughs while the Alternate Endings (with directorial introduction) shows you a much blander version of the ending, from three different aspects.
		The deleted scene (note the word ‘scene’ and not scenes) seems rather odd that it was included here (given its less than thirty second runtime) but it’s all welcome material.

		Besides the original Freaky Friday (1976), films such as 18 Again, Like Father Like Son and Prelude to a Kiss have all gone there.
		What Freaky Friday delivers is a wealth of after-the-movie discussion items without wading through things that often trip up teen films (strong sexuality, nudity, gratuitous violence, vulgarity, etc.).
		Sharing shelf space with The Princess Diaries and What a Girl Wants, Freaky Friday isnât Oscar material or brilliant filmmaking, but itâs funny, generally clean and pro-family.

		A remake of the 1977 movie of same name, this time around Jamie Lee Curtis plays the role initially played by Barbara Harris while Linday Lohan, no stranger to remakes as she starred in the remake of The Parent Trap, plays the role originally played by Jodie Foster.
		In fact, this Freaky Friday is easily one of the most heartwarming mother-daughter movies I've seen in quite a while.
		The star of the movie is Jamie Lee Curtis, who lets down her hair and play a teenager with cheerful abandon.

		This may sound like one of the craziest things you've ever heard, but I've become a firm believer in the possibility that Freaky Friday is one of the greatest movies of 2003- I'd say it ranks in my top five, up there with Identity and Pirates of the Caribbean.
		This Freaky Friday owns the original, which had the then-ugly-now-hot Jodie Foster.
		I found that movie to be too comical; and it didn't seem to me to have a passion and a heart for the film.

		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.
