Switched

This movie is so nice. Here are some of the themes this movies highlights and teaches us to: 1. Love everyone despite what they look like and do good unto others as you'd want them to do unto you. (That's the golden rule.) 2. Appreciate who we are no matter what we go through. 3. Don't bully your friends because you don't know what they are going through. 3. Help those in need. Cassandra Evans always admired Katy Sharp's life because she was all famous and had that vogue look. One time when Cassandra went was in the hallway at her locker with her best friend she saw Katy and thought she would just go and appreciate her and tell her how cool she was when she accidentally spilled coffee on Katy's shoes. In revenge Katy set up a trap for Cassandra as she walked in the door way Katy and her minions spilled milk over her and she uploaded the video on her Social account not knowing what she was doing was bad until Cassandra prayed to God to show Katy how it'd feel to walk into her shoes.

A body-swap story that started of pretty good. This type of film can be fun if done well. Here we have two girls who are psychologically opposite. Katie Price is a prima-donna with an inflated ego. Confident and beautiful yet cruel and unfeeling to those around her. While the other, Cassandra, is timid, lacks self confidence. Has a musical talent and a compassion for others. She admires Kate and wishes she could be more like her. After Kate plays a cruel prank on her at school Cassandra wishes Kate could learn what it's like to walk in her shoes. Voila! With a touch of movie magic her wish becomes a reality. Predictable confusion ensues. I could have done without the over-preachy religious subplot. There's a good idea underlying the film which definitely had more potential. Nevertheles it was entertaining enough.

Great acting, incredible dialog, fantastic movie. Hahahhaa.

I have seen all of them through the years. Body swap movies are not new. I can count at least 30 in the US alone in the last nearly 100 years. Everyone knows the big ones. Freaky Friday, Big, Vice Versa. They are formulaic and predictable for sure. And Switched doesn't do much to break out of the mold. But the two actresses playing the leads and the actors playing the parents make you run the gamut of emotions in this outing. You really can, if you allow yourself to get past the "oh it's another body swap movie where they learn about each other and themselves in the process" thought processes, to really get sucked into the lives of these two girls and start rooting for them. It has it's problems and loses some points just due to the fact that it HAS been done to death. But overall this is an enjoyable movie and worth the watch.

Me and my daughter loved this movie. Great moral to the story and I loved that it was christian based. I am shocked that it had such a low rating. Give it a try if you like to find movies with a moral to the story.
