Freaky Friday

CriticsCritics: 61
AudienceAudience: 6.2

A rebellious schoolgirl and her frustrated mother each believe the other has the easier life. After wishing to trade places, they mysteriously find themselves living in each other’s bodies for a day, facing unfamiliar responsibilities, social pressures, and unexpected challenges.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you like wholesome family comedies, body-swap antics, and warm lessons about empathy; Not for you if you prefer modern pacing, polished effects, or less slapstick humor.
