Jamie Lee Curtis Is Freakin' Annoyed By Freakier Friday Review

Jamie Lee CurtisJamie Lee Curtis played it cool in reacting to a brutal review of her new movie Freakier Friday – but it was clear she wasn’t happy.The Oscar winner scolded a writer for Time magazine for her review trashing trashing the light sequel starring Jamie Lee and Lindsay Lohan ― who appear together again as the body-swapping mother and daughter from 2003’s Freaky Friday.“SEEMS a TAD HARSH,” Jamie Lee wrote in the comments next to Time’s Instagram summary of the review. “SOME people LOVE it. Me being one.”Jamie Lee Curtis' measured response said it all.A tad harsh would be putting it mildly. “Freakier Friday’ is a movie that manages to humiliate everybody,” Time’s review says. “And it appears to exist largely for one reason: to grift off the fondness many adults have for the original, even though the sequel has none of that picture’s breezy, observant charm.”After zinging the “horrifically ugly” outfits that Lindsay’s character wears, the reviewer hones in on Jamie Lee, who “fares even worse”.“She’s more good-natured than she needs to be about the movie’s adult-diaper gags and jokes referencing the frequency with which old people tend to pass gas,” the author continued.Freakier Friday earned a 73% rating among critics and a 93% among audiences on the review-aggregating site Rotten Tomatoes.That should give Jamie Lee and crew something to laugh about.@huffpostukFreakier Friday director Nisha Ganatra reveals the many Easter eggs in the film for fans of Freaky Friday, Mean Girls and The Parent Trap 👀 #freakierfriday#freakyfriday#meangirls#theparenttrap#lindsaylohan#viral#fy#fyp♬ original sound - HuffPost UKREAD MORE:14 Behind-The-Scenes Facts You Probably Never Knew About Freaky FridayCritics Are Almost All Saying The Same Thing In Their Freakier Friday ReviewsJamie Lee Curtis Explains Why She Calls Plastic Surgery ‘The Genocide Of A Generation’
