Editorial Reviews

Synopsis
IT’S A BOY GIRL THING is a hilarious body-swap comedy in the style of BIG and 13 GOING ON 30 and is the story of Nell and Woody; teen rivals that love nothing more than to hate one another. Enemies in school, and next-door neighbours at home, the pair inexplicably wake one morning to find they have swapped bodies. At first, they’re disturbed by the occurrence, but with a little thought, it’s not long before they’re in school and tarnishing each others’ reputations. Devoting so much time and attention to each other has never been as much fun for Nell and Woody, and they soon discover that love can stem from the strangest of plantings.

fresh take on body switch5
I am from the U.S. and just recently saw it and loved it.The storyline was very believable and funny. The actors pulled the switch off well!

could watch it over and over again5
this film is so easy and enjoyable to watch! apart from the unrealistic concept for the film it was brilliant! the idea is unrealistic however it makes a great movie and is aas believeable as it could be. i found the acting brilliant and there are many hilarious lines, actions and manorisms made by the two leads which make it very enjoyable to watch. the actors fit prefectly into the rolse as if they really have body-swapped!

This film is better than you would think4
This film got panned when it was released, but undeservedly. It has real charm. And the likeable two main actors give convincing performances in their switched personas. The concept of bodyswapping is not new (remember Freaky Friday with Lindsay Lohan, for example) but this boy-girl bodyswap feels new, and successfully milks the contrast in teenage aspirations, urges, hopes and worries across the sexes; in the process it generates a lot of laughs and, of course, a little pathos. Kevin Zegers does well enough, but Samaire Armstrong has - maybe a surprise to you as well as me - genuine acting ability, and the scene on the veranda with her father towards the end of the film is a study in looks and nuances. I think this film counts amongst of the best of the teen-based genre
