The Hot Chick (2002)
7/10
It was actually pretty funny!
25 March 2006
People who hate this movie were probably in a really bad mood or offended, perhaps because the character in the movie being mocked portrayed them, or something... I don't know, but seriously, this movie isn't bad! I really had a good time watching this movie. It actually made me laugh quite a bit. Even though most scenes -- especially in this type of genre -- seemed forced, it still worked well. Rob Schneider really did a great job acting as a "girl trapped in a guy's body"; as absurd as the concept sounds, he actually made it pretty believable. I also liked Anna Faris in this movie -- yeah, even though it was yet again, her typical ditsy blonde role, it worked. She made a lot of the scenes funnier, and she looked "hot" on the screen too (not a bias opinion, seriously).

Now, I'm not the type who's always interested in these kinds of movies, but I was in one of those mood where I would give "movies like this" -- judging from the cover -- a chance. And well, I'm glad I watched it.

This movie wasn't just about some guy acting like a girl and expect the audience to enjoy it -- it actually had a great story affecting other characters and family.

I'm a bit surprised this was rated PG-13, since there's a lot of sexual references. So if you easily get offended hearing the word "penis" then this movie isn't for you. Obviously, this is not a movie to watch with a family! But a good laughter fun with your friends, or even watching it alone if you're old enough.

Hey, this is also a great movie to watch after you see a scary horror movie and can't go to sleep! This movie should cheer you right back up.

Great soundtrack too. One song in this movie sounded like a major rip off of Dave Matthews Band; I got a kick out of that. Don't stress over it, it's a fun movie! It's like an adult version of Freaky Friday, but funnier.
