By Drew Mcweeny (622) for HitFix (861) on 02 Aug 2011

Review of The Change-Up (2011)

By James Berardinelli (4,524) for ReelViews (4,523) on 02 Aug 2011

Distilled to its basics, it's little more than a sit-com that has been tarted up with scenes of projectile poop, odd sexual fetishes, and knife…

Review of The Change-Up (2011)

By Joshua Rothkopf (1,058) for Time Out (7,510) on 02 Aug 2011

Review of The Change-Up (2011)

By Amy Nicholson (961) for Boxoffice Magazine (2,896) on 01 Aug 2011

Despite all the boobs, The Change-Up is very fair to its female characters-well, at least to Mann and Wilde, who both ring true, even if Wilde…
