The Change-Up

In "The Change-Up," Mike Bergelson's fizzy comedy, lifelong friends Dave (Jason Bateman) and Mitch (Ryan Reynolds) find themselves swapped bodies after a drunken wish by a thundering fountain. Mitch, a carefree bachelor, and Dave, a buttoned-up family man, navigate each other’s lives with escalating chaos and hilarity, their existential crisis fueled by a ticking clock and mounting misunderstandings. The film is a ribald, if predictable, romp through midlife regrets and the perils of wish fulfillment.
