Rating: PG-13
Movie Release Date: December 13, 2002
DVD Release Date: May 13, 2003
Plot 411: A high school cheerleader and a small-time crook switch bodies when they both get their hands on magical earrings.
Review: Rachel McAdams is Jessica, a spoiled little rich girl and one of the cool kids in school. She has a crew of other mean girls that includes her BFF April (Anna Faris). While at the mall one day, Jessica pinches a pair of earrings. Unfortunately, she loses one side at a gas station that Clive (Rob Schneider) has just robbed. He picks up the earring, which leads to the body swap the next morning. This is a cross between Mean Girls and Freaky Friday that has its funny moments but again isn't groundbreaking. I'd say it was probably on par with Schneider's other comedic attempts and just another teen comedy for McAdams. Can't really say I'd recommend it, even to its teen demographic. There are other teen comedies that rock and this one just isn't one of them.
