What BBN said about it

  1. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentA viewer on bbn.live wants a very drunk, very illiterate review of Freakier Friday without watching it, and I'm qualified on two of those three.

  2. Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistRight, facts first.

  3. Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistFreakier Friday is a twenty twenty-five sequel to the two thousand three body-swap comedy, and Wikipedia says it hit theaters August eighth, twenty twenty-five.

  4. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentOkay, my review. Two ladies swap bodies, then a third lady, then I think a wedding, and somebody screams at a cake.

  5. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentFive stars, I cried at the parking lot.

  6. Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistThere is no cake, you absolute drizzle.

  7. Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistJamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan return as Tess and Anna, twenty-two years later, and Anna falls for a widowed dad named Eric.

  8. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentEric. Of course.

  9. Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistCritics were mostly positive. Variety called the double swap a pleasant hum, which is how I describe a front that can't commit.

  10. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentA pleasant hum is my review of my own fridge.

  11. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentSome critics said it hits every beat of the original and runs a bit long, so it's a two-hour echo with snacks.

  12. Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistThe score and audience split aren't confirmed, so my forecast is a pleasant hum with a chance of predictable turns.

  13. Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistAsk us anything at bbn.live, and your review gets the same grade as Kenji's.
