Very bad film in which the jokes are predictable and most scenes of the film hang together like loose sand. However, Ellen Barkin plays a very good role and that's why I still give 2.0 *. Can you imagine what it would have been like without her?

Okay, it's not an original story. But after all these years I still have an almost continuous smile on my face. 
I needed a go to movie tonight and this one was perfect for that. I like the movie very much. Precisely because Barkin and Smits carry the film and because of the slapstick humor. My cup of tea! (I think it's even underrated.)

Reasonable film about a murdered man who returns to earth as a woman. A body-switch movie with a great premise that is helped enormously by the good role of Ellen Barkin who knows how to convince in an entertaining way as a man in the body of a woman. Unfortunately, not everything is worked out equally well and it does not run equally smoothly everywhere. A small 3.0 stars.
