Freakier Friday (August (6 early screening) 8, 2025

Well, that was delightful.

I really enjoyed this movie! It certainly was just as good as the first movie. Even though there were two swaps, the pacing of being with each of the four characters worked pretty well.

Of course, Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis did fantastic jobs again as the two youngest characters. And it was nice to see Mark Harmon and the other returning cast members. And Julia Butters and Sophia Hammons did great jobs as the daughters, both as themselves and during the swap. Also, Manny Jacinto did a great job as Anna’s fiancé!

Regarding the plot, basically the same as the first movie, so, nothing too complicated. And I think all the elements worked well together. There a number of call-backs and I enjoyed them all. I think there was even a small The Parent Trap (1998) reference too.

This was just a fun heartfelt movie. Plenty of jokes covering all ages. I was laughing at some moments really hard! And there’s also plenty of second-hand embarrassment to go around, haha.

Mid-credit scene: Nope, but plenty of bloopers! (I miss those being in the mid-credits of movies!)

End-credit scene: Nope.
