Synopsis
It has been almost two decades since that chaotic day when Tess (Jamie Lee Curtis) and her daughter Anna (Lindsay Lohan) swapped bodies and experienced firsthand what it meant to be the other. Now, Anna is an adult, a mother to a brilliant and rebellious girl named Riley, and she is about to marry Dan, a widowed father whose teenage daughter, Harper, is not at all happy about the new family on the horizon.
When family tensions reach their peak during the wedding preparations, a mysterious fortune cookie—identical to the one that changed their lives years ago—unexpectedly reappears. Overnight, Anna and Harper wake up in each other's bodies, reliving the experience that once united Anna and Tess. Desperate to help, Tess steps back into the scene... only to find herself caught in a new swap that triggers an even more hilarious and emotional chain of events.
As they try to survive their new realities, with school exams, work meetings, and teenage emotional crises, the three generations of women begin to uncover truths they didn't want to face: the fears behind rejection, the invisible bonds of motherhood, and the complexities of forgiveness.
In this unexpected sequel, teenage revenge, generational clashes, and unconditional love intertwine in a funny and touching story where, once again, to understand each other, they will literally have to live in each other's skin. Because sometimes, changing bodies is the only thing that can bring a family together.

"Lohan and Curtis are the main attractions, since "Freakier" functions mostly as a nostalgia trip for 30-something ticket-buyers who can now legally enjoy a margarita. But while massaging…

"The body-swap comedy continues and while Lindsay Lohan puts in a serviceable appearance it's her co-star who makes this zany update a treat".

"There's a double swap this time, but this juggling-balls-in-the-air Disney family romp is more ambitious and less funny".
