Sophie decides to trade apartments for a holiday with someone from Paris. The morning after her arrival, the police come and find a beheaded body in a locked part of the house.

It's awful, but at least it is one of my favourite kinds of awful film: so awful it's a triumph.

The schlock factor increases with every passing frame, but at least it's never boring, though whether it needs quite so many shots of Vanasse's unclad breasts is doubtful.

The story moves like a bullet (more dumb perhaps than dumdum), but I enjoyed it.

Starts well but the whole things gets increasingly preposterous.

An uninspired, sub-Hitchcock effort.

Well-oiled thriller is quite suspenseful, even though the plot is extremely far-fetched, and there are a few chases too many.

Flawed, silly, and probably forgettable- but hey if you liked the Net and Enemy of the State - this is worth watching then. I liked it.

I didn't know that this film was in French when I bought it. Anyway it gave me a headache reading the subtitles and trying to follow the 'running around' at the same time ! And trying to figure out the plot ? Cantona was ok but lacked sparkle. It started off well, but became too unbelievable. Give it a miss.

It exaggerates and it doesn't work.

It was thrilling and exciting most of the time, but at the end it turned out that the plot is pretty lame...:(

Eric Cantona may not have the panache in front of a camera as he does on a football pitch, but Switch is still an enjoyable - if rather silly - Franco-Canadian thriller. Anyone want to swap homes for the summer? Non?
