"Twenty-two years after the events of Freaky Friday, Anna Coleman has given up her rockstar career to become a record-label manager for new stars, focusing on her teenage daughter, Harper."
"Despite impressive performances from both Lohan and Curtis, Freakier Friday never emerges from the shadow of its predecessor, a beat-for-beat recreation with new buzzwords."
Freakier Friday serves as a sequel to the successful 2003 adaptation of Freaky Friday. It showcases Anna Coleman, who has transitioned from a rockstar to a record-label manager, now focused on her rebellious teenage daughter, Harper. The film brings back key characters, but it largely replicates the original's narrative while incorporating modern elements. With a fast pace reminiscent of Gen Z culture, it highlights the tensions in Anna's relationships, particularly with her mother, Tess, and her daughter's challenges at school. Despite the charm, the film remains overshadowed by its predecessor.
