Synopsis

Lifelong friends Dave and Mitch are envious of the other's life. Mitch thinks Dave has it all: a beautiful, loving family and a high-paying job at a prestigious law firm. But Dave thinks Mitch’s stress-free playboy life without obligation or consequence is the real dream come true. One fateful drunken night, they both admit that they wish they had the other’s life while peeing in a fountain when lightning strikes. The next morning, they wake up, hungover, in each other’s bodies! With time not on their side, Mitch and Dave comically struggle to avoid completely destroying each other’s lives before they can find a way to get their old ones back.

kusalmaduranga I don't say it is good but i have enjoyed it , this is a typical american comedy plot, actually it remids me 17 again film but story contain one simple difference , it tells us how to enjoy your life, intend to the following money
nithirun Before I watch this movie, I saw rating on this web is only 6. I think it will not be the good movie enough to see. But when I saw it, I change my mind. It have many thing that similar to other movie but there are something new to me too. Many scene is very funny. If you look only story, it is very good one. This movie teach a lots of think. Friends, Family, Love is important. Movie have some Rate-R scene because of sex, language ,and boobs but it not too much to me. If you don't be serious with that look it as joke. This movie is not too bad for teenager (It is too bad for children but it warn you with this rate)So it is comedy movie that you need to see.
FilmBuff1994 The Change-Up is a good movie with a well developed storyline and a great comedic cast.It was certainly a lot if fun to see Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds switching bodies and trying to deal with being the opposite person that lives a completely different life.The first hour of the movie is certainly really funny,but the second half,when it's starts trying a bit too hard to get sweet gets a but irritating,I understood having some heart of course but I felt like when it tried to be too emotional it ended up stretching out to movie to a length that wasn't necessary,the movie is two hours long and it really should have been just an hour and thirty minutes.I felt like the writers were trying to hard to make us feel sorry for these characters while still be a comedy,which didn't work out because the characters personality and the movies set up is just too goofy to really feel sorry for them trying to coup with being a different person.It has its flaws and it's definitely overlong,but the Change Up is still an enjoyable movie that I would recommend to anyone looking for a fun comedy if you have some time to kill. Two friends magically swap bodies after they envy each other's lives,only to realise the grass isn't always greener on the other side.Best Performance: Ryan Reynolds
mathewmozaffari Honestly, I really enjoyed this film. It wasn't a film that had amazing performances and an original plot, but I still enjoyed it because it was a film that its vulgar, comedic and sentimental moments - all put together. For instance, in some scenes that were very sentimental, they were able to balance out the mood with humour. Not too much humour, but just enough which made the film great. In addition, I said that the performances weren't great, but Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds still had great characters and portrayed them very well. In summary, this is simply a good movie that would be great to watch with friends and have a laugh at.
