The Hot Chick (2002)

Starring Rob Schneider, Anna Faris, Matthew Lawrence, and Rachel McAdams, this is a Happy Madison movie so you know that it is going to be goofy but fun.

Basically, these mystic earrings that McAdams(Jessica) steals from a jewelry store have ancient powers, able to switch two bodies of the two people who each wear one earring. By a silly set of circumstances Jessica and Schneider switch bodies, putting the girl in a man’s body. This is the running gag the whole movie, how a girl would react to being in male form, especially a superficial one.

This movie was decently funny, I rented it for Rachel McAdams, but this was one of her first movies and she was barely in it, acting mostly as the drunken criminal Schneider whose body she was stuck in.

Adam Sandler has a bit part, as a white reggae who likes weed and to bang on the drums. If you like Sandler’s movies through his product company, you may want to see this one. It isn’t the funniest, but it is a decently entertaining Friday night popcorn movie. If you found like Van Wilder, Dude Where’s My Car, and Mr. Deeds funny, you’d like this. Minus the girls who all want to see “the package”.
