Freaky Friday

Love Jamie Lee Curtis and this movie! Worth it!

This movie was epic 🙌. It took me so many years to watch it, I’m so very glad that we finally got to, as a family. It’s a great family flick for a rainy day or family fun night.I feel that It’s easiest to understand if the child is like in the tween-teen ages, but I don’t find it inappropriate for a bit younger, like 10 or so, but it may be harder to keep track of things, fully understand, and questions might be raised along the way. It’s also may be more of a maturity level then an age. If you have a smart 9 year old.. this is fine, just saying :).Jaime lee Curtis & Linsey Lohan shine in this film! I bought the DVD so we can keep it up at our camper & watch it time and again. The storyline, the ending.. everything was SO great! They don’t make many (if any) movies quite like this anymore.BRING BACK THE GOOD ‘OL DAYS!!!Definitely, 5 stars from me & my girls 👍!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️** I hope my review has been helpful 😊.**

Great movie

Must see

We love to watch movies out in our yard, projected up on a screen my husband built. In the cold weather months, we will have movie parties indoors with the movie going in the front room and the TV room to accommodate all our guests, as our house is not huge. We invite friends and family over and love to have “movie theme” dinners. Of course, we have to have Chinese food with this movie! It makes for a very good time and this movie brings a lot of laughs and fun memories together. In fact, this is absolutely one of our favorite go-to movies for a good laugh.Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan are both completely believable and brilliant in their roles in “Freaky Friday” in this role reversal movie. They are crazily spot on in their interpretation of how each other would handle a situation or react. It really is hilarious. The supporting actors are all perfectly casted as well. We still call this the “new Freaky Friday,” even though it was released in 2003, as opposed to the “old Freaky Friday” that was released in 1977 and is the one we grew up with. They really are both good, but this is one of the times when a movie redo turned out even better. If you have not seen this movie, you are missing out. Give it a try. Everyone who has watched it with us has loved it! Have a little extra fun and order Chinese food for dinner. Always lovely to have a reason for a party and making memories!

Even though this isn't a new release, the adolescents in my house enjoyed it very much for family movie night. Older people liked too.

Directed by Mark Waters (Mean Girls, Head Over Heals) this is one of those rare remakes where the premise is the same but the twist on modernizing really works. It is funny and extremely well character developed.The story is that of a modern day mom and daughter who are opposites and at odds with each other. All mothers and daughters argue and in the heat of the moment may say things they really don�t mean at the time. Through the mystical magic of an Asian Woman and a fortune cookie the mothers get the wish � they switch body�s and not for any particular time period � but they get to go back when they realize what their relationship is all about.It stars Jamie Lee Curtis (Halloween, True Lies, House Arrest) in one of the best comedic performances in her career. She is so great with her timing and attitude � because she basically goes from being a middle-aged woman to a teenager. He use of the language, mannerism and her comic timing is perfect. Jamie is clever and inventive and took her performance to the top. She is hysterical in the real business world playing her mother- a Lawyer.Supported by Lindsay Lohan (Life Size, The Parent Trap) as her daughter who sharpens her performance as an overbearing, professional middle-aged women in a teenager�s body.They spend the remainder of the movie trying to figure out, very comically how to get back into each other�s original body. Mark Harmon (Chicago Hope, Wyatt Earp) plays the sympathetic and confused fiancé for the recently divorced Jamie Lee. The little brother played by Ryan Malgarini (Gilmore Girls) gets caught in the middle and is hysterical in his confusion.This film is great fun for the whole family. And will be available in December on DVD. Don�t miss it. It is very good and extremely wholesome. (11-10-03)
