Movie review - "The Change Up" (2011) **1/2

Some very talented, likeable stars and hilarious lines but too much of it is false - Jason Bateman surely wouldn't risk his legal career and ditto Ryan Reynolds his acting career to prove themselves. Olivia Wilde is stunning and her body double has a nice arse but she's not convincing as a girl who secretly likes baseball and beer and is just a regular guy. It might have been better if the two leads weren't good friends but rather enemies. It whimps out too - as if Bateman isn't going to have sex with Wilde when he has the chance.
