  One of my fave kids movies. Jodie and Barbara are hilarious. Imagine swapping a day in your life with your mum! Fave scenes - the switch between driving the car and water skiing. Stars a young Jodie Foster.

  Comédia da Disney que ganhou uma refilmagem em 2003 com Jamie Lee Curtis e Lindsay Lohan. Um dos filmes mais simpáticos produzidos sob a problemática gestão de Ron Miller nos anos seguintes à morte de Walt, mostra a já clichê história de troca de corpos entre mãe (Barbara Harris) e filha (uma Jodie Foster com 13 anos de idade). Como esperado para o padrão Disney de filmes família dá época, a produção é extremamente leve, apelando muitas vezes para um tipo de humor campy e pastelão que estariam mais em casa em um filme de Charles Chaplin. Ainda assim, demonstra a vontade do estúdio de conectar com uma platéia adolescente ao abordar a relação da filha pré-adolescente rebelde e da mãe super exigente. Não obstante, ainda há um lado perverso no momento em que a filha no corpo da mãe começa a dar em cima do vizinho de 16 anos e a receber cantadas do marido (no caso, seu pai). As boas atuações da dupla principal fazem com que o filme segure as pontas até o fim, especialmente Barbara Harris, que parece se divertir muito no papel. Totalmente supimpa.

  The best film of "body-switching", that I ever saw. Fresh.

  My favourite, and the original, version of the story. The cast is perfect, the movie is very funny, and it's exciting too. I loved this movie as a kid.

  I tried to watch this one, it was tiny bit too headaching. So tried to watch the remake with Jamie Lee Curtis, I thought the Original didnt cause me Migrane atleast. lol

  A bank Holiday morning treat.

  I loved it when I was a kid, and I give it 3 stars for pure nostalgia. Watching it years later, I can see how good an actress Jodie Foster would end up being and how underrated Barbara Harris was. The chase scene toward the end was completely silly, but it's a 70s Disney movie.… More

  I liked this movie because it shows the hardships of the positions a mother plays for her daughter and vice versa. It really shows that you should appreciate people who you love and do things to help you. I also thought that they had Barbara Harris working very hard to act like a child and in the end all of the efforts that went into making this production worth wild payed off emensely. Jodie Foster also was terrific as a mother. Freaky Friday is a moralful film, clever and funny. Story: B Acting: A- Direction: B Visuals: B- Overall: B *** out of 4 stars

  This original is definitely better than the remake. Both Barbara Harris and Jodie Foster are great in the leads.

  I have watched both versions of "Freaky Friday" (2003 and this one- not the 1995 tv remake) and though I understand why the Jamie Lee Curtis/Lindsay Lohan duo can be praised for their performance and why someone wouldn't pick an ancient film to watch apart from Jodie Foster herself-, I cannot overlook that this is a very interesting and demanding story for an actress so young. I think this movie also proves that Foster owes a lot to her early discipline as a thespian -maybe more than she does owe to her talent. I suppose a kid would not be too happy to work so hard as she did- and unfortunately, she never got rid of that clenched jaw. At least now we know that unlike Lindsay... it's because she's spent so many years in a closet!

  Simple but alright. Some things are better remade and this was one.
