Mitch Planko (Ryan Reynolds) und Dave Lockwood (Jason Bateman) waren in ihrer Jugend unzertrennlich, aber das ist lange her. Heute wünschte Mitch, sein Leben wäre mehr wie Daves, der alles erreicht hat: wunderschöne Frau (Leslie Mann), drei Kinder und ein perfekter Job. Dave dagegen beneidet Mitch um ein Leben ohne Pflichten und Verantwortung. Aus Wunsch wird Wirklichkeit, als die beiden eines Morgens im Körper des anderen aufwachen. Ob sie einen Weg finden, ihre Leben zurückzutauschen, bevor sie das des anderen ruiniert haben? (Universal Pictures Germany)

At the beginning, I didn’t really get the humor. Every now and then somebody shat themselves, and then somebody else threw up. But it wasn’t too funny, it would rather make you feel sick if you were eating, which now that I think of it I was. But then the body-swap happened and the whole thing changed somewhat. Sex with a woman in the 9th month of her pregnancy, or kids playing with knives and electricity. This movie is really unorthodox, but if you adapt and get through the first half an hour, it will end on a rather pleasant note. I wouldn’t have believed I would finish watching it, but in the end some scenes sure were worth it.

A classic extra-corporeal experience with a frequent and almost unbelievably bizarre humor goes by surprisingly quickly and thanks to the Reynolds/Bateman acting duo, it works in principle. But the humor ranges from shit in the face thru licking fake tits to seriously good jokes that will have you rolling in the aisles, and so it all seems a bit inconsistent. The real trump card here is Olivia Wilde in the position every "full-blooded" guy would like to have her. A decent, bite-size snack.
