1) Amazon.com
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 Fetzer

2) Description
In 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

Average Customer Rating: 4.5 out of 5

1) It was good but I've seen and read better   [Rating: 3 out of 5]
It was funny but I've seen it before Her brother (Ape Face) is a pain I have two younger brothers and they're evil so I know how Lindsay Lohan feels. This story about a daughter and a mother switching places this is the funniest story ever and how do they switch places just by a fortune cookie? The book was amazing as was the movie. The movie was very good but not my type of movie I'm more of a action/horror type of guy. I think movies from books ruin what the autor writes in his/her books then everybody just goes to see the movie instead of reading the book first. But all in all it was a pretty good book that everyone of every age I think would enjoy to read and see the movie.

2) not bad   [Rating: 3 out of 5]
good movie to watch with your kids or family. kind of lame but if u like the genre then go ahead

3) Too Funny to be True   [Rating: 4 out of 5]
Only Hollywood can invent such a comedy, but what a comedy indeed ! Imagine a mother and a daughter in the trap of some Chinese magic and the mother is the daughter and vice versa till a certain prediction is fulfilled. And the mother-daughter is getting ready for her re-marrying on the following day, and the daughter-mother is to perform in a rock concert and is falling in love for a young high-school junior or so. And, etc. ... Imbroglio upon imbroglio. When you get one, like one spaghetto I guess, you never see the end of its multiplication, like with spaghetti I guess again. Funny, light, extremely superficial but definitely entertaining and pervaded with enough empathy not to be turned off or down by the over-sentimental and don't-start-all-that-mess-again ending.Dr Jacques COULARDEAU, University Paris Dauphine, University Paris 1 Pantheon Sorbonne & University Versailles Saint Quentin en Yvelines
