It's a Boy Girl Thing (2006)

Poorly done body swap movie starring people who look like they're in their 20's.

[4/10 · 5 February 2007]

I could sit through this movie... but just barely. There were too many anatomy jokes that weren't even remotely funny. One or two would be expected, since, after all, they are just teenagers in the body of someone of the opposite sex; however, it seemed the continued references to Woody's "woody" were just gratuitous, and they weren't even remotely humorous. The actors did a good job of acting like they were the opposite sex, but that's the best thing I can say about this movie. It was very poorly done, in my opinion, and I would have thought it should be rated a bit higher. I took my 12 year old daughter, and even though I have been open with her about puberty and sex, I found the continued lame sexual references embarrassing, and so did she. The script was sad, the characters were stereotypical, and the ending was more than predictable. That said, it is a "feel good" movie, which is another redeeming feature.

Great sitcom for kids

[28 March 2006]

I rented this series for my 11 year old daughter to watch with me,as I had loved it when I was a kid and it was on first-run. I'm happy to say that she loves it, too. It's a wholesome show for kids to watch that is amusing and has a good moral to every show. I find it very refreshing to watch, and enjoy it myself, even after all these years. It's hard to find shows for my daughter to watch that aren't filled with sexual references, even when the show is supposed to be aimed at kids. Yes, the show is dated a bit, but if you're looking for a fun, entertaining, wholesome show for your kids to watch that hasn't been shown to rerun death already on TV, this is the show for you.
