Summary: Funny & Endearing. Yep! Endearing.
Review: Having never had the need to see a Rob Schneider flick, I was surprised when I actually decided to rent The Hot Chick. Honestly, I rented it more to see Anna Farris because the girl has a knack for comedy by just using her facial expressions. But instead of thoughtfully being disappointed by Rob Schneider's performance, I found him to be rather funny and endearing even. Yes, endearing.

Schneider (A criminal) and "perfect" high school girl Jessica mistakenly switch bodies after putting on a pair of ancient earrings that has the mystical ability to switch bodies. All in all, they take this plot and make a minimum spoof on high school. But there's much more to see in The Hot Chick. Actual lessons on friendship, family, and love are here too. I guess that's where "endearing" is coming from.

Rob Schneider and Anna Farris' chemistry in the film really pulled this along also. The club scene was a riot. Watch for that one. The supporting cast all had different little quirks and made for some great laughs along the way. There's a cameo from Adam Sandler to boot, too.

In the end, The Hot Chick was worth my rental and I didn't bother with the special features. I'm saving them for when I buy the DVD, because The Hot Chick is worth it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This movie is awesome!!! A definite must see!!
Review: This is by far, one of the funniest movies I have ever seen! You will be laughing out loud! The jokes never get old, as I watched it 3 times in a row and it was still hilarious! A definite must see/buy!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A finely nuance performance in a touching romantic comedy
Review: Rob Schneider shows us that having a sense of self is more important than gender. Good friends are good friends, no matter what. Through this modern-day tale of magic realism, high school seniors explore their relationships to each other and with themselves. Yes, there are laughs, but it's all tastefully done, and youngsters will enjoy rewatching the funniest parts.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Comedy!
Review: I had my doubts about this movie at first but I really enjoyed it and have recommended it to several people. I thought it was very funny and Rob Schneider played a very convincing teenage girl. The bar scene was one of my favorites and sure, it's predictable and, well, stupid...but it's a comedy! *laugh If you've enjoyed films by Rob Schneider and/or Adam Sandler in the past - this one is definitely worth checking out. Best comedy I've seen in awhile...

Summary: Stupid if warm one-joke comedy strikes some appeal
Review: Hot Chick, The (2002) Rob Schneider, Rachel McAdams, Anna Faris, Matthew Lawrence, Eric Christian Olsen, Robert Davi, Melora Hardin, Alexandra Holden, Sam Doumit, Tia Mowry, Tamera Mowry, Adam Sandler, D: Tom Brady. Low-humored duplicate of FREAKY FRIDAY-a Happy Madison production, about a thirty-something bandit waking up in the bed of a popular, cold fish cheerleader due to a pair of magical earrings from Abyssinia that has the power to switch bodies. You've seen it done many times before and many times better than this. Lackadaisical comedy can be amiable and tepid . . . but tries too hard to be funny with dopey and offensive jokes. And Brady wrote and directed films at Harvard? Schneider co-wrote and Sandler co-produced. Running Time: 101 minutes and rated PG-13 for crude and sexual humor, language, and drug references.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Better than Thought
Review: You know I remember seeing the previews on tv for the movie and all I can think of is how that would probably one of the DUMBEST movies I have ever seen made. Once I saw it, my mouth stays shut, but not during the movie. I was laughing the WHOLE time! It was very amusing. It was worth watching it. And, I would watch it again.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Fun!!!
Review: The Hot Chick is a wonderful guilty pleasure. True, the plot is totally cliche and predictable, but I haven't laughed so hard at anything in a LONG time. Rob Schneider's previous crass vehicles ("Deuce Bigelow" and "The Animal") gave no hint that the "Saturday Night Live" vet was capable of a bravura - at times astonishingly convincing - performance as a gorgeous 16-year-old female cheerleader who wakes up one morning in the body of a balding, homely 30-year-old man.

As the result of a pair of magic earrings, Jessica (Rachel McAdams) unwittingly trades bodies with Clive (Schneider), a small-time crook. We don't catch much more than a couple of glimpses of Clive in Jessica's body until a raucous climax, but for Jessica, her new male body is a life-altering experience. For one thing, Jessica must learn to negotiate the mechanics of urinating while standing up with the help of a confused men's room attendant (a hilarious Dick Gregory). And to explain her suddenly male presence at home, Jessica pretends to be a Mexican gardener named Taquito, who has to endure her dad (Michael O'Keefe) describing his sex life - and, worse, fend off a pass from her mom (Melora Hardin). Body-switch comedies usually wimp out in sexual situations, but this one takes full advantage.

Faris, who survived "Scary Movie 2," emerges as a promising young actress, and the same could be said of Rachel McAdams in her first sizable role. As for Schneider, he may be obnoxious, but he is, more important, talented and fearless, the driving force of the film.

This is mindless fun at its best.
