The Change up is a Comedy film starring Ryan Reynolds and Jason Bateman as friends. Bateman as the successful businessman, and Reynold's as an out of work Actor who spends most of his time smoking weed. When the day came that they both decided to wee in a water fountain, lightning struck in the sky and over night switched bodies. This film had a lot of funny moments, and some some really interesting concepts. Sure this idea has been done many times before in films, and not in this sort of style. Throughout the film, it contains very rude and flashing images as well as bad language. What would you expect from a Comedy film with Ryan Reynolds and Jason Bateman, it's bound to be rude! Would highly recommend this film with mature audiences, very entertaining all the way.

Dave (Jason Bateman) is a corporate lawyer working his way up to partnership and a devoted family man. Mitch (Ryan Reynolds) is a womanising stoner who appears in soft core movies and is distant from his father who is re-marrying.Both envy each other's lifestyles and after peeing in a fountain they body swap.Now Mitch inside Dave's body finds that being a corporate lawyer working on a big merger is no fun while also doing chores for the kids and keeping a wife happy after she has had a Thai meal which gives her the runs.Dave now living Mitch's life finds out that making soft core films is no fun nor is trying to have sex with an extremely pregnant woman.The film has a lot of gross out humour and nudity. A baby crapping on Bateman's face for example. It mixes the body swap premise popular in the 1980s with the crude humour from The Hangover type of films.However despite Reynolds and Bateman having a nice chemistry the film is formulaic despite the rudeness and not really funny.

I watched this yesterday and it brought up something in me that caused me to create an account and write a review about how much I hated it. It's very macho male humor driven with weak female characters. For example, Jason Bateman's character wants to have sex with strangers because his marriage is in a rut. He gets an opportunity to have sex with a nymphomaniac type lady during the switch, but wouldn't because she was pregnant ::drum cymbals:: However, he gets redemption by having a brief emotional affair with his hot assistant. In a twist of fate, when he sees the assistant's boobies, he becomes enlightened like "It's a Wonderful Life" style. What great news for the wife!
