The Change-Up

So you might be thinking "Oh another movie where people change places ala Freaky Friday/Vice Versa". Well the difference here is not just mom and daughter or father and son. It's 2 guys that live totally different lives and have to try to survive.

Ryan Reynolds and Jason Bateman are best friends for years. Dave (Bateman) is married to the very funny and sexy Jaime (played by Leslie Mann). He is a lawyer with 3 kids, up for partner and has things together. Mitch (Reynolds) is a bachelor living the bachelor life. I'm sure you can picture what I mean. After a night of drinking and wishing for the other's life, it happens.

Now this is a seriously funny movie with some seriously hard language. It is R for a reason including a scene in the beginning that is honestly just gross. To see Mitch be Dave with all the Mitchism was freaking hysterical. Dave as Mitch was a bit more heartwarming but just as funny. Lots of unexpected laughs throughout this movie.

Oh, one more thing...the funny and very sexy Olivia Wilde is in this movie. Reason enough to go, no run to the theater! 4 out of 5 stars!
