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.
