Reviews Counted:80

Fresh:17

Rotten:63

Average Rating:3.8/10

Consensus: The Hot Chick's one-note concept gets stretched thin, and a lot of the jokes fall flat.

Rated: PG-13 [See Full Rating] for crude and sexual humor, language and drug references

Runtime: 1 hr 44 mins

Genre: Comedies

Theatrical Release:Dec 13, 2002 Wide

Box Office: $34,857,447

Synopsis: Rob Schneider is the titular chick, Jessica, a stuck-up high school prom queen who wakes up one morning trapped in the body of an unattractive 30-year-old man. Thanks to a curse attached to some... Rob Schneider is the titular chick, Jessica, a stuck-up high school prom queen who wakes up one morning trapped in the body of an unattractive 30-year-old man. Thanks to a curse attached to some ancient earrings, Jessica has changed bodies and now must convince hot chick pals April (Anna Faris, of the SCARY MOVIE series) and Keecia (Maritza Murphy) of her true identity before their long, giggly, underwear-filled sleepovers can continue. Meanwhile, Clive, the displaced male, wakes up in Jessica's body (Rachel McAdams) and quickly parlays his hot new form into a lucrative career as a prostitute/stripper. Along the same lines as DEUCE BIGALOW: MALE GIGOLO and THE ANIMAL, viewers can expect the usual Schneider shenanigans and gross bodily humor. What might come as a surprise is the film's underlying sweet nature. While working to restore her original svelte form in time for the big cheerleader competition, Jessica helps save her parents' fading marriage and develops a sense of compassion for the social outsiders she'd previously scorned. Schneider fans, of course, will mainly appreciate his near non-stop prancing and mincing. Fellow SNL alum Adam Sandler executive-produced, and has an amusing cameo as a dread-locked bongo player.

  • The Hot Chick
  • The hilarious Rob Schneider has been a gigolo. He's been an animal. And now a curse will make him something he's never been before -- a woman! Jessica Spencer is the hottest, most popular girl in high school. But she gets a big dose of reality when she wakes up in the body of a 30-something-year-old lowlife male (Schneider) and quickly discovers that trading on your looks isn't so easy when you're a girl who constantly needs a shave. How in the world can Jessica convince her friends (Anna Faris, SCARY MOVIE, SCARY MOVIE 2; Matthew Lawrence, MRS. DOUBTFIRE; Eric Christian Olsen, NOT ANOTHER TEEN MOVIE) it really is her? And how can she change herself back into a teenage girl? THE HOT CHICK is a wild and wacky gender-bending comedy everyone can enjoy -- no matter what sex you are.

    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.

    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.

    Rob Schneider é melhor em criar premissas interessantes do que em desenvolvê-las. Em um universo ideal, ele seria obrigado a repassar suas idéias para que pessoas mais talentosas pudessem utilizá-las.

    Basically harmless and grudgingly funny.

    Couldn't someone take Rob Schneider and have him switch bodies with a funny person?
