Mondays are manic. Wednesdays are wild. And Fridays are about to get a little freaky.

Overview

Mother and daughter bicker over everything -- what Anna wears, whom she likes and what she wants to do when she's older. In turn, Anna detests Tess's fiancé. When a magical fortune cookie switches their personalities, they each get a peek at how the other person feels, thinks and lives.

Really good watch, will watch again, and can recommend.

I'm not sure what it is about this movie, but it's just an easy, fun watch. Jamie Lee Curtis is a seasoned actress, and Lindsey Lohan had finally built enough experience to be reliable in this role where she's basically doing an impression of Jamie Lee Curtis being her mom.

Unlike with <em>'The Parent Trap'</em> films, there is a fair gap in favour of the original for <em>'Freaky Friday'</em>.

This 2003 remake is still very good, I definitely enjoyed it. It just feels a little hollow in some areas, at least until the sweet ending. Lindsay Lohan is great as the daughter, giving Jodie Foster a solid match. Jamie Lee Curtis gives a fairly strong performance, though Barbara Harris' portrayal of the mother is superior in my opinion.

There's fun to be had here for sure, it's just not on the same level as the excellent original for me....
