Wow. That was horrendous. Ridiculously forced and plot holes everywhere's poorly acted and truly just terrible. Unrealistic and unoriginal. I'm really disappointed in these usually great actors that they did this film. Even my 9 year old was like wow, this is bad can we watch something else. A band teacher and marketing professional in a multi million dollar home in LA? The flow of the movie is off and predictable and the predictable bad chain of events is forced. Come on Netflix. Do better. I know you can. Don't waste your time this holiday season trying to get through this waste of Hollywood film.

Ed helms and Jennifer garner prove there is nothing they won't do for a paycheck in family switch. Family switch seeks to answer the question no one asked. What if Freaky Friday was a whole family switching. The result is essentially a youtube cringe compilation. Mom and dad witch with teenage son and daughter. Baby and dog switch. The result? Age jokes that fall flat. Dumb jokes about fashion, lactose intolerance, pop culture references and terrible party movie cliches. Making matters worse. The movie presents a really odd series of stereotypes. As usual the family is wealthy with multiple cars and a classic sports car to destroy filming. They live in what is essentially a mansion. Yet both parents have pretty low end jobs they can just run away from and it's fine? I guess if your life depends on bill payments you can't afford to body switch? The movie is cliche and cringe. Kids want to grow up....but oh it's all too fast. Mom and dad are in a rut. But oh, dating in our teenage children's bodies made us feel young and in love( wtf?). 80s like house party scenes including people engaged in complete choreography shows no one on this cast ever went to a house party. Bad cgi baby and dog remind us those characters should have been cut. The end actually fixed nothing but hey. Group hug. This could have been fun. Simple jokes, physical gags, no cgi. Nice lesson about respect, understanding and sacrifice. Farts, fall down. Crazy work presentations that somehow works. Poop joke. Group hug. Merry Christmas. Is it family Friendly? Yes...as long as you don't as questions. Is it worth watching? No. Is it fun? If you like cringe....still no. If you're about to watch family switch, switch to a diffrent streaming service and watch something else.

You know what ? The real sad thing in this day and age is that people expect 'realism' and 'drama' in films and sadly they've forgotten the escapism, entertainment and just a good time out watching the screen. I couldn't believe the low ratings for this movie ! ... I thoroughly enjoyed this ! ...Why ? Because it was FUN !! Whatever you do, DON'T expect a 'deep and meaningful' message, even though that comes across, but it's wrapped up in a very clever role play reversal of mum, dad and the kids chaotic attempt at finding themselves in each others bodies ( a bit of a new take on Tom Hanks 'Big' movie ) The acting of the different role-plays between mother, father, son and daughter was really well done and unlike a lot of comedy I see these days, I had a lot of GOOD laughs ! ( especially the role reversal between the French bulldog and the baby ! ) The concept of too many Christmas movies these days is so cheesy and syrupy but this (?) was just good old fashioned fun and a great fantasy ride and should leave you at the closing credits with at least a smile .... sure is a welcome change from some of the heavy stuff that films are these days.
