Ryan Reynolds and Jason Bateman star in the outrageous comedy from the director of Wedding Crashers and the writers of The Hangover. One drunken night, two friends admit that they wish they had the other's life. Mitch (Reynolds) thinks Dave has it all: a beautiful, loving family and a high-paying job at a prestigious law firm. But Dave (Bateman) thinks Mitch's stress-free life without obligation or consequence is the real dream come true. The next morning they wake up, hungover, in each other’s bodies, and proceed to freak out! 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.

Critics Consensus: There's a certain amount of fun to be had from watching Bateman and Reynolds play against type, but it isn't enough to carry The Change-Up through its crude humor and formulaic plot.

Reviews

Deep Focus Review

Brian Eggert

There’s an audience that will go bananas over such a low-effort comedy, but only if they’re in the mood for shock-based and intentionally offensive humor.

Jumps right into bizarre, foul humor to lure audiences in with pure shock.

Richard Propes

The sad thing here is that there's a terrific film trying to find its way to the surface.

A gross-out comedy that masquerades as a tale about finding one's true place in life.

No longer will bros have to wonder what it would be like if two dudes, two dudes with polar opposite personalities and lives, switched places with each other for a short time!
