    The movie that started the 80's body swap films
    Most people don't realize that this movie predated the father/son body swap movies such as Like Father Like Son and Vice Versa. Of what I remember of it both actors played their parts a little over the top once they had switched personalities. Robert Klein played his sons personality as if he was like 7 years old when in fact he was teen. Scott Schwartz played his dad a bit better but had a pipe in his mouth a lot of the time which looked kinda ridiculous. The script was weak and not nearly as enjoyable as Like Father Like Son or Vice Versa in which the actors played their roles with a bit more realism. This is a film that is probably nearly impossible to locate today anywhere.
