Freaky Friday is a story about a teen named Anna Coleman and her mother Tess Coleman, that don’t understand each other. Most of the scenes happened at school, home and in a Chinese restaurant. The director made the film easy to understand and easy to relate on. The conflict in the movie is that anna and her mother is cursed in a spell which they switch places. Anna Coleman a common teenager who constantly rebels against her stodgy mother Tess and annoying younger brother Harry. Sources of irritation include a rock band Anna's in, which her mother dislikes, and Tess's upcoming wedding to a man named Ryan which Anna is emotionally not ready for. Also contributing to Anna's irritation is her enemy, Stacey Hinkhouse the "insane psycho freak" who never seems to stop torturing her, and Anna's English teacher, Mr. Bates, who gives her an F on every assignment, no matter how hard she tries. Her love interest is Jake. Lindsay Lohan was the one to act the part of the main character Anna Coleman and Jamie Lee Curtis was the one to act the part of her mum in the story.
Impossibly as it may look like, the film itself is already enough to touch the heart and soften the hardheaded teenagers who are influenced by the rapid development of technology and education which make them wiser and mature enough to act in different kind of situations. The film, though, maybe far from reality, but the characters are fully comparable to those teenagers and parents of today’s generation.
The movie was modernized through its special effects, one part of the film that had a special effect was the time they were in the Chinese restaurant and had a sudden earthquake. In the movie there were some sound tracks that had been a part of the movie included a soundtrack which featured songs by various artists. The album was called a "mixed bag" by allmusic, which specifically cited American Hi-Fi "The Art of Losing," The Donnas' "Backstage", Andrew W.K.'s "She Is Beautiful," and Joey Ramone's "What a Wonderful World" as good, and strongly criticizes the rest of the album. The album was certified Gold and sold over 650,001 to date. The costumes are fascinating, that made the charters look great, even the props that they’ve used on the movie.
The best part of the story was when they realized things such as Anna should accept his mother’s boyfriend Ryan and Tess realizes how exciting it is to be on stage and why Anna loves the rock band then after everything happened there was a second earthquake that everyone feels and Anna and Tess switch back into their own bodies.
Every scene in the movie is important and should not be change, if I could change something it would ruin everything. The movie was perfectly made and I like everything about the movie, as one of the audiences I wasn’t bored on watching it.
Teens, teens are really confused with many things, and they love to try many things. That’s why they argue with their parents. Some teens answer back to their parents if they didn’t get what they want or need. I would recommend this to those daughters or children who are against their parents and doesn’t want to obey them. Maybe the possible audiences are girls whose fan of Lindsay Lohan, mothers who care about their rebel child, people who’s looking for romance, and for fantasy or magic, The movie must be watched by teenagers whose life is almost centered on their selves and to those who does not collaborate with life’s challenges. Not only teenagers but also parents must watch the said movie, parents who do not know how to approach their children in the nicest way possible, those stodgy parents, and those parents who just get what they want and does not ask the opinion of their children as to make a decision with the approval of each member of the family.
I would personally recommend it to my cousin who doesn’t obey, respect and honor her mother, she talks to her like they were in the same age and rebel against her mother. If I will rate it out of ten I’ll rate it seven, not too high not too low, just enough grade for a good movie that would wake up those children who were bad to their parents.
