Review

good, raunchy comedy in the tradition of freaky friday or like father like son. both leads did a good job of playing the other person. the casting works, too, because both has a definitely comedic style so it’s easy to pick out elements of reynolds in bateman when they are switched, and vice versa. leslie mann is good as bateman’s wife. it feels like an apatow film because she’s in it and because the emotional points of the film actually work on some level deeper than the average comedy.
