FREAKY FRIDAY is a studio's nightmare. The sucess of the movie rides completely on the strength of the two main performances. The script and direction mean nothing if those two actors aren't cast perfectly. Lucky for us, they were. Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsey Lohan are perfect in this movie, believable and very funny. Also, there's little objectionable material. There is no language, only some crude terms like "sucks" and one use of "h*ll" ("makeover from h*ll"). There are some mild, harmless innuendos that will go over kids' heads, like when Mark Harmon's character causes Curtis to trip over a couch, and her dad says "save it for the honeymoon". No violence, drugs, or negative role models. Quite the contrary, actually. While both mother and daughter act immaturely to begin with, they each act out of love towards the end.

The girl is mean to her mom and the words ewww

This movie is quite fun with solid performances from the leads.

Some language when daughter is mom, Anna is a bad role model when the movie starts but gets better, same with messages...

I don't know how many times I watched Freaky Friday, but I enjoyed it every time. However, it is obvious that some parents won't enjoy it. The Mother-Daughter relationship is terrible in the beggining of the movie. While the daughter is in the mothers body, she kisses her love-intrest and rides with him on the back of his motorcycle-just before she is about to get married. A mom talks about reading her daughters diary and realizing that her daughter wants to have you know what (but she doesn't say it). In the end a grandson calls his Grandfather an "old f*rt." Otherwise, Freaky Friday can be a loving story about a mother and daughter slowly abandoning each other become closer.

its movies like this when u wish sometimes u could be ur mom for a day that be so cool! and Freaky Friday is exactly like that hey u might even get closer to ur mom after watching this movie a really good movie for all ages!

I liked that Anna and Tess got a hands-on experience of the other's perspective of their on-the-edge relationship. Sometimes I could get a good feel of other peoples perspective. But it was funny to people because it was an awkward mother-daughter relationship. It would be boring to people if it was an extremely disfunctional friendship. If you want a kid friendly version of the Kardashians, this is the movie for you and your family.

then i will never let anyone under 14 watch this
