There’s lots of ‘I hear you, can you hear us?’ exchanges to entertain, which does help swallow the slightly unrealistic development that the Anna we met in Freaky Friday would have chosen to become a single parent in her very early 20s, in order to already have a teenage daughter.

Freakier Friday, quite successfully, tugs on the same heart strings, follows similar beats and even repeats some of the same songs to serve a predictable, well-loved formula patched together with scrapbook transitions that hark back to the golden age of teen movies.
