Film review
The Change-Up 2011
Directed by David Dobkin112 minComedy
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.

I used to like this film. I think I just really enjoy the whole body swap thing and I can’t think of another film that does it other than Your Name which is obviously a lot better than this.
This is my third Jason reitman film I’ve re watched in a row and it’s just coz I can’t think of any good films to watch.
This was ok though. A little unfunny at times, but I enjoy the concept and I like the whole family Vs no responsibilities stuff.
Please someone recommended me a film that doesn’t have Jason reitman in it or I might watch horrible bosses 2 next.
7.4/10
I can’t believe out of all the good films out there I just rewatched the change up
