Mother and daughter bicker over everything -- what Anna wears, whom she likes and what she wants to do when she's older. In turn, Anna detests Tess's fiancé. When a magical fortune cookie switches their personalities, they each get a peek at how the other person feels, thinks and lives.
"Mondays are manic. Wednesdays are wild. And Fridays are about to get a little freaky."

Unlike with <em>'The Parent Trap'</em> films, there is a fair gap in favour of the original for <em>'Freaky Friday'</em>.
This 2003 remake is still very good, I definitely enjoyed it. It just feels a little hollow in some areas, at least until the sweet ending. Lindsay Lohan is great as the daughter, giving Jodie Foster a solid match. Jamie Lee Curtis gives a fairly strong performance, though Barbara Harris' portrayal of the mother is superior in my opinion.
There's fun to be had here for sure, it's just not on the same level as the excellent original for me....
