Body Swap: Empathy Makes People Mature

One is a successful man who loves his family, his children and his career, but lacks a little fun in life. One is an unambitious enjoyment man who does nothing but eat, drink, prostitute, gamble, and smoke every day. These two best friends, who are worlds apart in terms of lifestyle and hobbies, exchanged bodies in a strange way when they urinated in the fountain together. When these two extremes are reversed, although the body is still there, the mind has changed, and an unimaginable and stupefying life anecdote is unstoppable.

Similar to the plot structure of "Face Change", but not so much thrilling violence, more of a spoof of shit and fart, continuing the "Hangover"-style big shift in life. Different from "The Hangover", "Swap Body" tells a big truth, which makes the audience start to think about the meaning of life and imagine how different lifestyles will affect them when it is ridiculous. Let everyone try this extraordinary experience through the playful interpretation of the two male actors.

Although the film is humorous and funny, it is difficult to agree with the too many vulgar R-rated sections. Just imagine, after all the restricted levels that shouldn't be played and shouldn't be watched are all arranged and played, what else will be arranged. Nowadays, a large number of bad fun films are of various kinds, which makes people think deeply about the appreciation level of the audience and the production level of the screenwriters. After breaking the bottom line, what else do we break through! The way this film makes people think differently is still worthy of affirmation and appreciation. After all, guiding everyone to look at problems from the perspective of the other party is a way of growing up to make us mature as soon as possible.
