    Not bad

    Cute movie! Thought it was funny and had good acting. 7/10

    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! .

    Horrendous

    Kid was acceptable but the rest was beyond stupid. I kept asking when is this going to be over? Not one to give up I fast forwarded 15 minutes or so honestly didn't need to see it to figure out this plot. Freaky Friday, hot tip watch that instead!

    Yeah it was kinda weird

    The boy did a great job on this show, he looked confident and did his part well. The Baldwin guy on the other hand....holy crap he was not right for this part. I think that was the killer of the show. They needed someone who didn't whisper throughout the whole film. It was okay

    Super funny, and a great movie to watch

    This movie is SO FUNNY! It is awesome. I watched this with my family and we couldn't stop laughing. There are a lot of really funny scenes and it is just great. The story and plot is good and makes sense for a movie about body switching anyway. And the acting is really good too. Watching how the kid in the father's body acts and how the father acts in the kid's body is so fun and hilarious. There are some uses of foul language, but not a lot. (Just a warning for people who are sensitive to it or have young kids.) But other than that a great movie for the family that is sure to get lots of laughs.

    Even though there are a lot of other movies with a similar plot and idea, it NEVER gets old. I really like and find body swap movies (or TV show episodes) just absolutely HILARIOUS! So if you like these types of movies I totally recommend.
