Audience Consensus

A great cast and some moderately heartwarming moments aren't enough to make up for Family Switch's unimaginative take on the overused body-swap gimmick.

I actually hate this movie, it's like if dhar wasn't just pretty bad it's if he was HORRIBLE AND JUST THE WORST FILMAKER EVER! This movie needs to be removed from this planet, the fact that a horrible movie like this has anything over a 5% genuinely shocking, I can't believe I actually wasted over an hour of my life watching this movie, absolute worst movie ever.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

It was really good but one scene made me really uncomfortable, with the kids in their parents bodies kissing and then the parents in the kids bodies flirting at the party.

I thought it was a cute Christmas movie. I think the switch thing and the living the same day over and over again movies are getting to be a little too much where I don't even watch movies like that anymore, but I thought this one was good.

“Family Switch” is a Dad Joke of a movie, genially corny but enjoying its corniness so much that it invites us to enjoy it, too.

Rated: 3/4

“Family Switch” has bits and pieces of amusement, but mostly you want to swap it for a better movie.

It’s simply hard to feel all that deeply for characters so flat and sweet they might as well be gingerbread people, resolving problems that barely seemed to exist in the first place.

The very familiar premise of body swapping is written until the wheels fall off. Is it a fun trip... sure. Does it go anywhere... no.

A very entertaining, if predictable jaunt...a ball of fun, with the best scenes involving the swap between the family’s baby and its pet pooch.
