      want to be free

      Everyone in the world is envious of 'others': other people's families, other people's freedom, other people's children, other people's fathers, what is in front of them is always invisible, and what is in front of them is always not cherished. Believe that only what you strive for is yours, and what suits you is the best.

        The "elite man" in the film is busy every day, serving as fifty 24 hours a day. It may be because of the family environment since childhood. The school competes...

      Relax and think

      After watching American Emperor's "17 again" a few days ago, I found that I prefer this style of film.
        
        We think that if we leave the moment and let go of what we are in now, we can be happy and have a better life, but this is not the case. People are accustomed to seeing things in their own eyes. Little Jiujiu in my heart is doing something wrong. He seems to have everything at his fingertips, you don't know how much effort and perseverance he has given.

        People are...

      gift of life

      I haven't watched a new movie alone for a long time, and I have returned to a state of ecstasy. Everyone complains and struggles in their own life. They are used to their own way of life but yearn for change. While numbly killing the passion of life day after day, they are envious of the unreachable freshness outside their own life. feel. However, life is not as good as a drama, there is not really such an exchange, and there will not really be a chance to feel the unknowable sadness and...

      Body Swap: The Qualifying Popcorn Movie

      Body Swap: The Qualifying Popcorn Movie

      This is a typical popcorn movie. Two best friends who are sleepy and boring about the lives they're in have unexpectedly swapped souls and are forced to experience each other's lives. The winning lawyer with super self-control needs to accept a life of rubbish and has to act in third-level films; while the young actor who is idle and free to do whatever he wants is forced to challenge difficult cases and the world problem of how to get along with...

      Life will slowly get better

      Aside from some naked scenes, I think the biggest point of this movie is to let us know that your life will be yours, but if it doesn't belong to you, it doesn't belong to you in any way.
       "Fate should have and must have, and hits should never be forced" explains everything.
               When Davi and Mitch peed in the magic pond, they became each other the next day, each other's body but their own soul. . This mysterious week has begun, and everyone has their own mistakes. Mitch has no...

      In fact, I really want to give 4 stars, it's a small "soap opera" that I rarely insist on watching... But it seems to be a little worse than the other 4 stars... When I watched it, it was strange to think of an old friend,...

    Swap negative body reviews

    Some viewers felt that the film was useless, and it was a junk comedy with a disgusting degree comparable to "Human Centipede". The film is a crumbling house, but the director used tons of gorgeous paint to paint its appearance, trying to cover up the almost chalky foundation and creaky structure. Jason Bateman's versatility and on-screen charm, Ryan Reynolds' handsome face and perfect body are really a waste of it. The idea of...

    Movie quotes

    • Cara Lockwood: [runs toward Mitch] Uncle Mitch!

      Mitch Planko: [hugs Cara and tosses her lightly into the air] How's my favorite ballerina doing?

      Cara Lockwood: Hi, Uncle Mitch!

      Mitch Planko: Hi! Wow! Gosh, you're so light - are you dieting?

      Cara Lockwood: You want to come to my dance recital?

      Mitch Planko: Oh, no, honey... the only style of dancing that Uncle Mitch likes involves a big, shiny pole and a broken woman with daddy issues.

    • Mitch Planko: [looks at the two babies, Peter and Sarah] Look at these little... fuckers!

    • Mitch Planko: [pokes baby Peter] Hey, what's your name? What's your - what's your name?

      Mitch Planko: [looks at Dave and Jamie] Why can't they talk yet? Are they retarded or something?

      Dave: Now, see, you can't say that.

      Mitch Planko: [points at Peter] Well, at least this one right here seems a little... a little downsy.
