Synopsis
The Walkers have to learn what it means to be a family when a freak body swap leaves them walking in each other’s shoes
The Walker family is growing distant from each other as the two teen children and the two busy parents focus on their own lives. But when a cosmic accident leads them to wake up in each other’s bodies – the kids become the parents and vice versa – everything changes. Two teens try to make it in the workplace while the parents do what they can to survive high school. The only way for the four of them to succeed is to stick together, communicate, and learn what it means to be a family again.

WHY YOU SHOULD STREAM Family Switch - TIPS FROM JUSTWATCH
Perfect for fans of body-swapping comedies
Keith Langston
Written on December 4, 2023 Streamed on Netflix
"Netflix’s Family Switch combines the body-swapping antics of Freaky Friday with the magic of Christmas movies. In one scene the characters even joke about the plot’s similarities to other films like 13 Going on 30 and 17 Again, which serves as one of the movie’s funniest moments. For anyone who loved the wacky hijinks of those films, then Family Switch will be an enjoyable watch. The movie’s highlight is the mom-daughter humor between Jennifer Garner and Emma Myers who deliver the film’s best performances. For a light, breezy holiday movie with a unique twist, Family Switch is a great watch."
Excellent for fans of holiday films and body-swapping stories

Written on December 4, 2023 Streamed on Netflix
"Family Switch is a heartwarming, family-friendly Christmas movie and the latest take on a body-swap premise in the style of Freaky Friday and The Swap. It's perfect for viewers looking for a holiday film with a twist or those who want to relive the nostalgia of 13 Going on 30 by seeing Jennifer Garner once more steal the show in a body-swap movie. With top-notch performances, a touching story about family connection, and some laugh-out-loud moments, Family Switch makes a unique mark on both the holiday and body-swap comedy genres."
