Duncan Pinderhughes (Christopher Reid) is a nerdy straight-A student with no social life, and Blade Brown (Christopher Martin) is a tough bad boy with grades so low he has little hope of graduating from high school. When a fateful mistake swaps their permanent records -- and thereby identities -- they decide to take advantage. Duncan will raise Blade's grades, and Blade will show Duncan how to be cool. However, they both start to realize that their new lives aren't what they expected.

Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times Class Act takes a fairly radical idea and turns it into a sitcom, although not without giving us some idea of the possibilities it has missed. Rated: 2/4 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Pamela Bruce Austin Chronicle Rated: 2/5 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Kevin Carr 7M Pictures This movie was really nothing but fluff for the decade, featuring hot hip-hop stars of the day. Rated: 2.5/5 Jul 30, 2012 Full Review Brian Orndorf BrianOrndorf.com A film that strains to be entertaining until it's red in the face, but doesn't contain a single laugh. Rated: D Jun 4, 2012 Full Review Ryan Cracknell Movie Views While not a horrible film, it certainly isn't the type of feature that would make anyone an icon or even a star.
