Review of The Switch (2010) by Lisa M — 12 Oct 2011
Though Aniston is top-billed, this is Bateman's movie all the way. The two leads have good chemistry together and the little boy is Dakota Fanning good. While the premise is right out of a soap opera and the ending a foregone conclusion, I liked the script and the entire cast gave their material life; they all came to play.
Beautifully filmed, well paced and smartly directed, the filmmakers maintain a small movie feel within their higher production values. And thankfully the songs used throughout do not get in the way of the action on the screen.
A pleasant surprise of a movie. Recommend.
