A Disney classic that will never be forgotten, 18 April 2008

Author: Moviefreak4653 from United States

Freaky Friday is one those films that after i watch i feel so good and its one those films where if i have not seen in a while and i watch again i forget how much i liked it.The movie is so much fun to watch and its so weird to see Jodie Foster here and then see her nowadays its so weird cause every now and then ill say hey thats Casey Brown(from Candleshoe)and Annabell Andrews.If you have not seen this your missing out but a lot of other people have not seen this and that saddens me, but then ill think what a loyal following it has so that brightens me.Overall you should go see this its so much fun like its remake, and you will hopefully like it. 7.9 stars out of 10
