Desperate attempt to make Christmas movie
Watch this movie if you have absolutely nothing else to do for the day. And also you have not watched Freaky Friday. (but if you have not watched Freaky Friday then you are better off watching that movie first and forget about this one). Any how the plot is very slow; you will find some key moments rushed way too quickly wile some segments are stretched bit too far. Plot is completely predictable and there is no element of surprise at all. I did not find myself laughing out loud, not even a giggle, nor a chuckle at any point of the movie. It just felt bland and tasteless for the most part. I guess they started production late, with too little budget and rushed to complete by holiday season. all in all, Would I recommend this movie to a friend? Absolutely not! .
No Charm Or Originality
BEWARE OF FALSE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE MOVIE. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . NOW I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 300 HOLIDAY FILMS & SPECIALS. I HAVE NO AGENDA. In this film Mitch Taylor is a workaholic attorney and widowed dad to a 12-year-old son, Robbie. Lately, Mitch is in way over his head, as he tries to be a dad, please his hard-edged boss and become partner at his firm, while dealing with an impatient girlfriend. His son Robbie has problems of his own. The school bully has made Robbie his latest target, he tries not to be a total nerd in front of the girl he likes, and to make things worse, he was unwillingly cast as lead role in the Christmas pageant. Robbie really want his dad to go out of his way this year to make Christmas all it's cracked up to be. Mitch and Robbie definitely think the other has it pretty easy— until a mysterious toy causes them to switch bodies. They are forced to find out what it's like to spend the holidays in each other's shoes. There was zero to like this film. The plot is a rip-off of "Freaky Friday" and "Freaky Friday" was remade TWICE and they were both much better than this crap. Billy Baldwin does not have enough charm or innocence to pull this off! Those were 2 things you need to have in order to make this film seem somewhat plausible! He comes across in this like "Someone who is mentally Challenged". His co-star Michael Campion only comes across slightly better! DOn't waist your time on this. Its a huge bore!
Drivel
Being on the lookout for new Christmas movies, I stumbled on this. Billy Baldwin, Denise Richards, I thought it'll be alright.. Nooooooo,totally wrong Father and son trade lives, and nothing but dull, poor acting and zero laughs follow. It could and should of been better, even the smallest bit, it's not exactly a new formula for a movie plot The acting is absolutely shocking, it's laughable at times and it'll be the only laugh you'll get, well.. unless you read Shominy's review. Now that is funny! There are many many Christmas movies out there that are much better than this. Do yourself a favour and skip.. you'll thank me
This was beyond stupid
This film wasted the talents of many people but those were the people with talent that sat down and watched this crappy movie. Acted in an over the top fashion by everyone who has a substantial role. The writing is a cut and pace job from other Christmas Movies as well as "BODY SWITCHING MOVIES". The one good thing I can say about this film was the fact I did not have to pay to see this. This was one of those films that you can see every plot line telegraphed. There is no element of surprise in this. One does come up as shock is that it is so bad that I was expecting that this was made by Adam Sandler.
Not bad
Cute movie! Thought it was funny and had good acting. 7/10
