There’s an audience that will go bananas over such a low-effort comedy, but only if they’re in the mood for shock-based and intentionally offensive humor.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Mar 9, 2023

Jumps right into bizarre, foul humor to lure audiences in with pure shock.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Nov 30, 2020

The sad thing here is that there's a terrific film trying to find its way to the surface.

| Original Score: 1.5/4.0 | Sep 5, 2020

A gross-out comedy that masquerades as a tale about finding one's true place in life.

| Original Score: C- | Aug 5, 2020

No longer will bros have to wonder what it would be like if two dudes, two dudes with polar opposite personalities and lives, switched places with each other for a short time!

| Original Score: C | Jul 11, 2020

For audiences in need of a boost, "God Bless the Broken Road" might offer just enough of a payoff to justify a few rough patches.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 7, 2018

Reynolds tries and if you find him or this sort of teen-bop movie appealing, you may find something to enjoy. If you're repulsed by both, I suggest avoiding Dobkin's latest effort like the plague.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Aug 24, 2018

Although the lack of originality of the concept really brings down its appeal, audiences will enjoy watching this recycled story unfold with the two newest performances.

| Original Score: B- | Sep 8, 2017

If you still enjoy the sort of bathroom humor that had you in hysterics back in grade school, this movie delivers those juvenile gags (in every sense of the word) in droves.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 1, 2017

R-rated comedies these days, like 'The Hangover' and 'Bad Santa,' employ a relentless bombardment of cheap, gross toilet humor and nonstop cursing -- because it usually works.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jul 15, 2016

A disappointing body-switch comedy...

| Original Score: 2/4 | Feb 27, 2015

Cynical, tone-deaf junk that has nothing to contribute to the world but smirks and a general dismissive attitude toward human connection and interaction.

| Original Score: D+ | Jun 22, 2013

The Change-Up is a comedy that can't find it's proper place in the demographic of anyone by freakishly pushing the boundaries of taste.

| Original Score: 3/10 | Feb 28, 2013

It's easy to recommend The Change-Up for its over-the-top laughs and a pair of solid leads that succeed in offering a raunchy twist on a familiar formula.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 2, 2012

A foul misfire that favors sex and gross-out gags over its somewhat affecting plot about married life and single life, and the sacrifices we all make for one or the other.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Jan 29, 2012

The finale is shockingly flat, everything petering out in such a forgettable and joyless manner the effect is frustrating.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 27, 2012

The key to the film is the chemistry between Reynolds and Bateman, who work off each other but can also be very funny in their own scenes.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jan 22, 2012

Luckily (Bateman and Reynolds') comic timing is convincing, otherwise this would be a total waste of time.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 3, 2012

The posters promise a film from the director of Wedding Crashers (David Dobkin) and the writers of The Hangover (Jon Lucas/Scott Moore). Pure rubbish ( ... ) would have been more accurate.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Sep 25, 2011

Rude, coarse and morally repugnant.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Sep 21, 2011
