The Hot Chick (2002)

Am I Missing Something?

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Two characters have changed bodies due to a magical pair of earrings, as explained in the movie description.As much as I loved seeing Rachel McAdams being a mean girl, I hated watching Rob Schneider for the first ten minutes. But then, the movie won me over and I thought it was funny!Rob Schneider has a great effect on the rest of the characters because he's meeting them as a stranger. And he looks great in a bikini! Anna Farris was adorable, as always, and so were the rest of the cast. Of course, the experience changes the Rachel McAdams character and she becomes the nice person she ought to be.

The premise for this movie it's a very predictable and vulgar sequence of a perfect life of a beautiful, rich and healthy teenager, and her friends, in their high school years. Despite following the same ingredients of others successful comedies of the 00's, The Hot Chick have fantasy and the body transfer between characters that add a sparkle of geniality to the plot. Rachel Mac Addams, Anna Farris and the very skilled but underrated Robert Schneider, keep me interested. It's nostalgic to see the first work of Rachel, even before the hit Mean Girls. Although the story is not memorable, don't have a great turning point and don't provide any learning what so ever, I find it enjoyable to watch in a weekend afternoon. Therefore, I definitely don't recommend this piece to adults that love action, seriousness and a story with depth and meaning.

There are many problems with this movie but the biggest is: IT's NOT FUNNY. Not even a single bit.The lead guy (Rob Schneider) is as funny as cancer... seriously bad undergraduate stuff that looks more like a church campfire sketch than a PG movie. Honestly this makes Mr Bean look sophisticated and mature... The supporting cast are as interesting as a dial tone; even the ones thrown in for the "eye-candy" factor weren't especially attractive.Another problem is that this movie is as sanitised as the Brady Bunch. You almost expect Alice to pop up somewhere with some idiotic line and that catatonic look on her face.But in spite of the goody two shoes treatment, the level of racism in this movie is through the roof. From the Asian woman who works painting nails in the mall who speaks "Engrish", the old black guy working in the men's toilet, the young black guy who liked the fat chick with the big bum the list of ugly stereo types goes on and on and on.In spite of using racial vilification and bullying to prop it up, this train wreck falls flat on its face.Watching this movie was a truly vile experience; which is quite an achievement for a "comedy".

Last night, myself and a couple of friends were having a good time. It was late at night, and everybody was tired, but no one wanted to sleep, so we turned on the television, and watched this. I had seen this movie when it first came out with my family, and was too young to understand anything. Then again, that was over 7 years ago. To brain-dead to think otherwise, I saw it. From beginning to end, we were laughing our butts off!All I remember is that Adam Sandler had a cameo, there were some penis and fart jokes, Ana Faris looked extremely hot, and slapstick was extremely frequent. In terms of regular, good old comedies, this probably doesn't fit. However, when you're mind is somewhere else, this film really works! I would like to see it sober, but I am afraid I will likely abhor it. I love all films, and consider myself a film buff. I watch new films at the cinema the day or weekend they come out, and I usually agree with the critics. This film was panned, and I would likely also dislike it. However, I cannot forget the extreme laughter my crew and I experienced, during what were likely lame, slapstick moments. Nor can I let go of the strong emotions some of us felt during the "emotional" parts. Therefore, I shall treasure it for what it is:a treat for high or drunk people, though probably not so good for regular audiences.
