Instead of acting like Lohan, Curtis just acts like a young kid who just ate too much ice cream. I thought at most times Lohan was Tess, but Curtis was having too much fun as Anna to really be thought of as great. If Lohan, a teenager, could be an adult so well, that's rather scary. Whatever will be done? Although most people have praised Curtis for her accurate portrayal of a typical teen (although with the people at my school, what she does is anything but typical), and she should be, Lohan does better at being an adult. After a fueled feud, Tess and Anna open fortune cookies that switch bodies: Tess is in Anna's body, and vice versa. Tess is going to marry Ryan (Harmon), because her husband died three years ago (can't there be a Disney movie with both parents still alive?), of whom Anna doesn't approve. Anna Colemen (Lohan) (changed from Annabel Andrews) is supposed to be a typical teenager (but is anything but), and has daily fights with her younger brother Harry (Ryan Malgarini) (changed from Ben Andrews). Tess Coleman (Jamie Lee Curtis) (changed from Ellen Andrews from the novel by Mary Rodgers) is a harried psychiatrist who still has time for her family.
It pleases the whole family, being that they already saw Finding Nemo and it's the only other family movie out there. It pleases older women because of Mark Harmon. It pleases older men because of a Jamie Lee Curtis thong shot. It pleases teen boys because of Lindsay Lohan.
It pleases shallow teen prep girls because of Chad Michael Murray. Any way you look at it, Freaky Friday is a family-friendly film that tries to please everyone, and does. Although at times it seemed that way, at other times, it just seemed like Lohan was trying to be Curtis and Curtis was trying to be Lohan. To make Freaky Friday work perfectly you would have to believe that Jamie Lee Curtis is Lindsay Lohan and Lindsay Lohan is Jamie Lee Curtis.
