Notable Films for 2011

The Change-Up
Opens: August 5th 2011
Cast: Ryan Reynolds, Jason Bateman, Leslie Mann, Olivia Wilde
Director: David Dobkin

Summary: Two childhood friends have drifted apart – one an overworked lawyer with a family, the other a single and oft unemployed man-child. After a drunken night, they wake up having switched bodies and proceed to learn each other’s lives are nowhere near as rosy as they once seemed

Analysis: The old body swap trick has been a comedy staple for decades across films like both incarnations of “Freak Friday,” “Big,” “13 Going on 30,” “The Hot Chick” and “Dating the Enemy”. ‘Change-Up’ doesn’t sound like it will add anything new to the formula, but that doesn’t mean it won’t be an enjoyable spin on it right… right?

Helmed by David Dobkin (“Wedding Crashers,” “Shanghai Knights”) and penned by the duo behind the likes of “The Hangover” and “Ghosts of Girlfriends Past”, the idea of a slacker Reynolds and workaholic Bateman switching minds should yield a few laughs. Yet nothing else about the story is particularly exciting be it the baseball-themed minor subplot to “Tron” scene stealer Olivia Wilde as a co-worker love interest. (Source)
