Review of The Change-Up (2011) by Tj M — 11 Feb 2012
Cast: Jason Bateman, Ryan Reynolds, Olivia Wilde, Leslie Mann, Mircea Monroe, Alan Arkin, Shannon Guess, Jeanine Jackson, Sydney Rouviere.
Director: David Dobkin.
Summary: In this contemporary reality-warp comedy, single playboy Mitch and responsible husband-father Dave are best buddies who want each other's life -- and they get the chance when they magically swap bodies after a night of drunken revelry.
My Thoughts: "Not a very original concept but the film delivers the funny. A bit raunchy kind of funny I might add. It's your usual case of body switching to figure out the life you had wasn't as bad as you thought, or the life you had could be better. Ryan and Jason are great in these comedy roles. But I also really love Leslie Mann. She is just one of the funniest gal's out there. So what you get is a raunchy, profanity filled, lessons learned comedy. You're either going to love it or hate it.".
