What makes Freakier Friday so special is that amid the laugh-out-loud humor and welcome fan service, there's also a beautiful film here about parenting, coming-of-age, loneliness, grief, loss, and sacrifice.

Overall, this is a comedy that doesn't skimp on the sentimental stuff, although it never comes off as cloying or overly sweet.

It’s a good movie for a late-summer legacy sequel, not a candidate for the all-time comedy pantheon. But every new generation of mothers and daughters, as they struggle to balance their love for each other with their quest to discover themselves, deserves a body-swap comedy of their—our—own.
Aug 5, 2025
Lohan and Curtis are the main attractions, since “Freakier” functions mostly as a nostalgia trip for 30-something ticket-buyers who can now legally enjoy a margarita. But while massaging millennials, the movie also has a good time slinging mud at Gen Z.

These complications want to spin off into fluffy absurdity. Instead they thicken into treacle. It’s a mistake to have Lohan and Curtis mainly interact as new characters, because the emotional core between their old pair gets dislodged – though it certainly helps that Butters is such a splendid, grounding co-star both before and after the switcheroo.

By the middle of the film, the narrative also begins to stutter, set piece after set piece, caper after caper, loping toward the inevitable moment of collision and resolution, without always maintaining the narrative tension to keep things interesting. Since we know where this is going, these bits need to be really funny, not just broadly perfunctory jokes about how generations don’t understand each other.
Aug 5, 2025
The talent of tomorrow has to play second fiddle to a generation’s inability to let go of the past. And that’s something a quick body swap can’t solve.

La película es entretenida y tiene momentos muy graciosos, trae de regreso personajes icónicos que nos recuerdan la infancia, pero la primera película sigue siendo muy superior en todos los sentidos.

#TheShortHandCritic: Of all the nostalgic movies of better times, the 2003 #Disney hit #FreakyFriday did not seem one of the first choices to get a sequel (we still can’t even get #TheGoonies 2 made). However, with #JamieLeeCurtis fresh off her first #Oscar win and #LindsayLohan’s career comeback in full swing, making #FreakierFriday suddenly seemed more relevant—Particularly given the hullabaloo made these days of generations being pitted against each other. That is part of the theme here as we have 3 different ones colliding. This time around Lohan’s character Anna is getting married and the two daughters (#JuliaButters and #SophiaHammons) despise each other because one is from a different marriage. When they decide to ban together to wreck the wedding, they switch places with mom (Lohan) and grandma Tess (Curtis) via a psychic played by a ho-hum #VanessaBayer (wouldn’t it have been fun to cast say #HayleyMills?!) Similarities to #TheParentTrap abound, this sequel also majorly rehashes its own namesake, which is a shame but no surprise. Both Curtis and especially Lohan this time are wonderful. Yet they are fighting an overloaded script to please the masses that would have been better off to extract half a dozen characters including the new daughters. The movie has too much to handle, and its fast scenes particularly at the top of the film become mentally laborious. Of the original supporting cast, only #ChadMichaelMurray makes an undeniable impression, but we keep wondering why Anna or Tess don’t finally get with him. Disney does good with innuendos, and there are a few very funny moments here but not enough. Also, they corrected their mistake of Lohan not being able to sing in the original. Overall, we are better to have had the experience because of Lohan who truly jumps off the screen with charisma. A long time coming, but a message in never giving up for sure. Still the original is easily better. Perhaps it was the better days era of a more tolerable time filled with carefree hope gone but not forgotten. Then anything seemed possible—even switching bodies with your mother. ️ ️ 1/2 (Out of 4 Because 5 Stars Are For Restaurants & Hotels Only) #FilmReview #ShortHandCritic
