Plot Synopsis
Storyline
Growing up together, Mitch (Ryan Reynolds) and Dave (Jason Bateman) were inseparable best friends, but as the years have passed they've slowly drifted apart. While Dave is an overworked lawyer, husband and father of three, Mitch has remained a single, quasi-employed man-child who has never met a responsibility he liked. To Mitch, Dave has it all: beautiful wife Jamie (Leslie Mann), kids who adore him and a high-paying job at a prestigious law firm. To Dave, living Mitch's stress-free life without obligation or consequence would be a dream come true. Following a drunken night out together, Mitch and Dave's worlds are turned upside down when they wake up in each other's bodies and proceed to freak out. Despite the freedom from their normal routines and habits, the guys soon discover that each other's lives are nowhere near as rosy as they once seemed. Further complicating matters are Dave's sexy legal associate, Sabrina (Olivia Wilde) and Mitch's estranged father (Alan Arkin). With time... Written by anonymous

Did You Know?
Trivia
The second movie in two years (after 17 Again) in which Leslie Mann plays the wife of a man who switches bodies with someone. See more »Goofs
In one of the office scenes, when 'Mitch' (Reynolds) is in 'Dave's' (Bateman) body, an open game of Freecell is seen on the computer. Yet there are 4 cards occupying the ace boxes and 4 cards in the 'free cells' while the rest of the cards are in the correct starting position. This would mean that there was an extra 8 cards in the game. See more »Soundtracks

This type of movie has just been done too many times and this time they make it gross as to how they switch bodies. It's by peeing in a public fountain.
So you have the married father of 3 responsible guy, Dave, whom switches bodies with his carefree rude best friend, Mitch. So they throw in some bad language, some boobs, and gross situations and you have a laughing riot of a time, right? Wrong, this was gross and the plot is just old to be funny to me. I mean, they have a baby squirting something into his dad's mouth. Plus babies playing with knives and electrical outlets.
FINAL VERDICT: This idea has been done too many times to bother watching again. Skip it.
