Leave your thoughts about Switch.
| NewsweekJack KrollIn the end, Switch isn’t a top-grade Edwards movie--though it shares with his best, a sparkling directorial panache and charm, a charge of risque humanism, a wizardly delight in body language. |
| Seattle Post-IntelligencerWilliam ArnoldIf Edwards had somehow found a way to really grapple with the implications of his story - if he had pushed to see how far he could go - Switch might have been a truly revolutionary comedy, on the order of Tootsie but more sexually frank. Unfortunately, he seems determined to make everything palatable to the sensibilities of the kinds of people who probably wouldn’t attend this kind of movie in the first place - and, in the process, he takes a daring idea and plays it safe. Too safe. |
| Miami HeraldBill CosfordThere are some funny moments, and though she hams it up at times, Barkin is very good in her first comic role. But Edwards milks the comedy, keeps the sexual comment to a minimum, and brings the film to a silly, cop-out resolution. |
| Village VoiceMichelle OrangeA methodical, occasionally remedial survey of the energy crisis and its possible solutions, Switch fits a subject often treated polemically into a more benign, continuing education mold. |
| Los Angeles TimesBetsy SharkeyPerhaps Switch's greatest strength is in giving us enough information to try to come up with better questions of our own. |
| Slant MagazineKalvin HenelySwitch is possibly the driest and most balanced documentary on the current energy crisis. |
| Chicago TribuneDave KehrSwitch leaves one feeling that Blake Edwards is more than a little confused. |
| Tampa Bay TimesHal LipperThe only redeeming thing in Switch is Barkin's vulgar and adept physical performance of a man literally trapped in a woman's body. She's in a constant state of discomfort, whether it's trying to walk in high heels (a sight gag that quickly gets old), scratching her breasts, or sitting with her legs apart in a tight miniskirt. Her presence, however, is a small consolation in a movie that takes the battle of the sexes and turns it into a pointless skirmish. |
| The New York TimesVincent CanbyNothing in Switch is that plausible or compelling. Any movie that depends on the presence of either the Devil or God is asking for trouble, and Switch has them both. |
| EmpireAndy KleinCertainly crude and unrefined are among the adjectives that apply to this sex farce, along with derivative and shallow. Most important - and perhaps, sad -of all, is unfunny. |
