It's a Boy Girl Thing: "They've turned into the things they hated most.. each other."

Not sure that there's enough going on in this film for me to make many comments. Tween comedy, another body switching plot with the same principals, ideas and similar gags. Surprisingly, thought the marketing for this was a little strange. Although it seems like it's presented to a reasonably young age there's a lot of jokes, obvious ones, that are intended for a older audience. And nudity and bad language. Which, yeah is pretty expected for this sort of comedy but the whole thing feels pretty juvenile.

Rivals Woody and Nell are always at each other's throat until on a school trip, a mysterious statue switches their brains (or their souls) and they're forced to live out the next few weeks in each other's bodies. 'Hilarius' events ensue.

Nothing special amongst tween movies in general. Some parts made me chuckle, some parts made me cringe and I suppose at the heart of it, the film does explore the two main character's relationship, and whilst heartfelt, the film was generally too shallow for me to care too much about anyone.



No amazing acting involved either, naturally. Although I raved a little about Kevin Zegers in my last post, this film had no sort of role that he couldn't really excel in. Mediocre performance from both leads, or at least once again, nothing special. Samaire Armstrong was slightly better at playing the opposite gender but, sadly, no break through roles here.

Pretty senseless, slightly moving comedy with nothing you haven't seen before. Worth a watch if you're in for some light hearted, non-brain inducing comedy but it's certainly not going to wow you.
