Reviews for Freaky Friday
Top CriticThe premise provides a fine showcase for the two appealing actresses, who appropriate each other's vocal and physical mannerisms with dead-on accuracy.

Top CriticA likable but flimsy retread that's barely worth the effort.
08/08/03
Top CriticThe material here may not be the freshest, but screenwriters Heather Hach and the redoubtable Leslie Dixon have buffed the dialogue until it sparkles like the finest cubic zirconium, and the cast is game from top to bottom.

Top CriticA showcase for the buoyant, antic spirit of Jamie Lee Curtis.
08/06/03
Top CriticIt's a gimmick that's been adapted or copied countless times, but director Mark Waters fills the screen with color and the soundtrack with punky songs.
