However, Jessica is soon

The movie's devices are so feeble, I think it was written on a napkin in a Denny's the day before principal photography began.

Enough to make any woman or gay man wish they could beam themselves to planet Zoltron.

A surprisingly good-natured throwback to the '80s heyday of the body-switching genre.

I will say this for the film -- it's in color. And, it was mostly in focus. And I really can't say anymore for it beyond that.

By the standards of knucklehead swill, The Hot Chick is pretty damned funny.

Instead of the easy laughs, Schneider and Brady are going for something a little deeper.

Offensive, vile, and, even worse, not funny.

There is exactly ONE scene worth watching in Rob Schneider's latest pathetic romp... is it worth ten bucks? No way in hell.

It's interesting that Rob Schneider's comedies are getting progressively worse as they are released.

...an embarrassment to its actors and to its audience.

It's sad and depressing when in order to get a laugh a Hollywood movie has to stoop to replaying gags that would have made the Three Stooges blush.

For those who pride themselves on sophisticated, discerning taste, this might not seem like the proper cup of tea, however it is almost guaranteed that even the stuffiest cinema goers will laugh their *** off for an hour-and-a-half.

The Cold Turkey would've been a far better title.

31/07/2010 (TELEVISION)No disappointment here to be honest because it delivered exactly what I expected judging from the cover. Definitely funny and it's just a nice light flick that gave me a break from my usual choices which was nice.Not a bad idea and it does have enough to keep you in your seats to check out what

Thoroughly enjoyable, just at times a little too much for me, especially with all the grossness that Rob Schneider puts into some of his performances.
