Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Boring
A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
The movie is good and has some moments which made me laugh. The acting from Rob Schneider is top-notch and I enjoyed watching him. The acting from beautiful female actresses is good and funny as well.It was enjoyable to watch it, thus I give it 8 stars!
Jessica Spencer (Rachel McAdams) is a mean-girl cheerleader captain. She and her friends April (Anna Faris), Lulu (Alexandra Holden) and Keecia/Ling Ling (Maritza Murray) rule the school. Jessica steals a pair of ancient magical earrings. She drops one of the earrings which is picked up by ugly thief Clive (Rob Schneider). They both put on an earring and their bodies get switched. Jessica convinces her friends but struggles to figure out her new body.The movie lucked out by having Rachel McAdams as mean girl Jessica. It doesn't take full advantage of the unforeseen advantage. Rachel playing a man is hilarious. She's much funnier than Rob Schneider. Rob is doing his stupid idiocy which is fine. Rachel comes in and steals the movie every time. It's the disappointment of what this movie could have been.
"The Hot Chick" is a film that used to be quite famous in Brazil, due to the number of times that its major television channel has displayed it. Last night I gave it a chance. As the movie started, I felt the story a little slow and uninteresting, but around 40 minutes of length or so, things started getting better and better. There are some indeed funny moments, like when Jessica has to go to men's room, or when that Corean mother tries using ghetto vocabulary-- I laughed out loud in that scene. One thing that impressed me is how strange Rob Schneider's character felt; I found it hard to say whether he was looking gay or crazy, given that some characters couldn't even see something strange about him. Anna Faris, on the other hand, doesn't do anything different from what she has done in the early 2000's, replaying the classic Cindy Campbell over and over again. However, what impressed me the most was the possible inspiration this film has been to comedies made shortly after. One example of this is the body changing thing, that surely gave some ideas to 2003's teenage classic "Freaky Friday". Also, men pretending to women appeared right away in 2004's "White Chicks"-- not to mention the fact that the dancing scenes and the soundtrack in there looks A LOT like "The Hot Chick"'s. Even if the story feels corny for most of the time, this film still manages to entertain and provoke some timid breakthrough in the genre, and that's why I will probably recommend it to anybody who asks about.
Last night, myself and a couple of friends were having a good time. It was late at night, and everybody was tired, but no one wanted to sleep, so we turned on the television, and watched this. I had seen this movie when it first came out with my family, and was too young to understand anything. Then again, that was over 7 years ago. To brain-dead to think otherwise, I saw it. From beginning to end, we were laughing our butts off!All I remember is that Adam Sandler had a cameo, there were some penis and fart jokes, Ana Faris looked extremely hot, and slapstick was extremely frequent. In terms of regular, good old comedies, this probably doesn't fit. However, when you're mind is somewhere else, this film really works! I would like to see it sober, but I am afraid I will likely abhor it. I love all films, and consider myself a film buff. I watch new films at the cinema the day or weekend they come out, and I usually agree with the critics. This film was panned, and I would likely also dislike it. However, I cannot forget the extreme laughter my crew and I experienced, during what were likely lame, slapstick moments. Nor can I let go of the strong emotions some of us felt during the "emotional" parts. Therefore, I shall treasure it for what it is:a treat for high or drunk people, though probably not so good for regular audiences.
