Family Switch Ratings & Reviews
RogerEbert.com
Nell Minow
"Family Switch" is a Dad Joke of a movie, genially corny but enjoying its corniness so much that it invites us to enjoy it, too.
Culturess
Lindsay Press
Unfortunately, there are too many things going on for too many characters and it is difficult to believe that this experience really would have helped this family in the long run in any way other than having a bizarre shared experience.
Cultured Vultures
Natasha Alvar
Family Switch isn't going to be that special holiday movie you put on every year, but it's fun enough to be enjoyed in the moment.
KKFI-FM (Kansas City)
Russ Simmons
It's harmless, but "Family Switch" is about a half-hour too long to sustain its frothy spirit.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...an often astonishingly bland endeavor that's been suffused with a progressively intolerable slick and generic feel...
Variety
Owen Gleiberman
"Family Switch" has bits and pieces of amusement, but mostly you want to swap it for a better movie.
The Daily Beast
Isaac Feldberg
The switcheroos befall an entire dysfunctional family, rather than just an at-odds mother and daughter, setting up four actors to deliver comically outsized dual performances of adolescence and middle age.
Boston Herald
James Verniere
Not great, but cast, including Emma Myers of "Wednesday" fame, makes it fun.
Lady Geeks Media
Gissane Sophia
Netflix's Family Switch is far from flawless, but it's a well-written, hilarious treat featuring a team of actors who undoubtedly had a blast together, which translates onto the screen with sparkling ease.
Decider
John Serba
The cast gamely slogs through the material, and works so hard to sell hokey contrivances in a plot so overstuffed, there's no room to find or cultivate any comedy, or indulge anything more than shopworn character tropes.
Deadline Hollywood Daily
Pete Hammond
Guess what? It works, even offering some LOL moments along the way in a movie that isn't trying to reinvent anything here, just finding a new angle to squeeze some more life out of it.
Cinema Crazed
Felix Vasquez Jr.
I liked it just enough to get me through the end credits...
Casey's Movie Mania
Casey Chong
Family Switch is fun, whimsical and entertaining enough to keep me mostly hooked throughout its 101-minute duration.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
The gag here is a predictable and old one...
Screen Rant
Rachel LaBonte
Family Switch yields some laughs, some cringe, and a fair amount of heart, even if it doesn't tread new ground for this ridiculous, beloved premise.
Collider
Tania Hussain
This new riff on the body swap comedy is more than a little familiar, but a charming cast makes it a breezy watch.
The Hollywood Reporter
Angie Han
It's simply hard to feel all that deeply for characters so flat and sweet they might as well be gingerbread people, resolving problems that barely seemed to exist in the first place.
New York Times
Claire Shaffer
The real nail in the coffin is the film's messaging about the power of family, which is about as tacked-on and stilted as they come - hardly a shock in light of the rest of the Netflix holiday movie lineup.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
There's no joy in candidly observing that if awfulness were incarnated and saw this movie, it would say, "Whoa, too awful for me."
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
An unexpectedly aggressive viewing experience that immediately suffocates all emotion it offers, while its overall sense of humor is dispiriting.
