Season 1 Review: A colorful "Friday" with the Disney touch, while Zuehlsdorff and Blickenstaff shine. Read full review

Season 1 Review: While this peppy musicalization o the Disney favorite won't erase the memories of the popular 1976 and 2003 movies, the clever score by Tom Kitt and Brian Yorkey brings a fresh, fun energy to the body-swapping generation-gap shenanigans. [6 - 19 Aug 2018, p.11]

Season 1 Review: The tunes are forgettable, so bland they make Teen Beach 2 look like High School Musical 3. Zuelhsdorff and Blickenstaff give good age-crossed performances, but the tone around them is all over the place, fart jokes and dead-dad ruminations. Read full review

I don't even know what to say... I somehow kinda liked it.

I can understand that 1.7 average rating (ouch!) but at the same time I truly didn't even mind this 2018 remake/adaptation of Mary Rodgers' 1972 novel. This incarnation of 'Freaky Friday' switches the story into a musical. My brainI don't even know what to say... I somehow kinda liked it.

I can understand that 1.7 average rating (ouch!) but at the same time I truly didn't even mind this 2018 remake/adaptation of Mary Rodgers' 1972 novel. This incarnation of 'Freaky Friday' switches the story into a musical. My brain was constantly telling me throughout that events onscreen were bad and yet I evidently hold nothing against it - if anything the opposite, to be honest. I'm just as surprised as you!

Cozi Zuehlsdorff and Heidi Blickenstaff are actually enjoyable in the lead roles and, I'm sorry, but "At Last It's Me" is a lowkey bop. Of course it's a million miles away from being anything close to perfect but for what it is - a made-for-television Disney Channel teenager flick - I can't give it any hate. Is 7/10 generous?^ Probably, but whatcha gonna do. ¯_(ツ)_/¯… Expand
