I'm Torn
I read today that Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds are set to star together in a new movie. I think they would be great together in a movie and so I read on wondering what the plot would be. Then I saw it. It is a switch movie. I hate those kinds of movies. From Vice-Versa to Freaky Friday to anything that involves any kind of switch like that, I am not a fan. The plot is that one is a responsible family man and the other is a lazy man child. I might, might be willing to give it the benefit of the doubt for $1 on DVD, but no matter how much I like the two of them I am scared that if I even give my one dollar that this will produce what I like to call the Switch orgasm. At about the time Vice-Versa was made there were five or six movies made at the same time that basically dealt with the same issue. From Big to the one that had Dudley Moore and Kirk Cameron to actors who played twins and then concluded with Multiplicity where Micheal Keaton played 16 versions of himself. It was just never ending. The Switch orgasm wasn't as bad as the volcano and meteor hitting the world movies that followed a few years later but it was close.
