Not only is Jessica Spencer (Rachel McAdams) the most popular girl in school -- she is also the meanest. But things change for the attractive teen when a freak accident involving a cursed pair of earrings and a chance encounter at a gas station causes her to switch bodies with Clive (Rob Schneider), a sleazy crook. Jessica, in the form of the repulsive Clive, struggles to adjust to this radical alteration and sets out to get her own body back before the upcoming prom.

Critics Consensus

The Hot Chick's one-note concept gets stretched thin, and a lot of the jokes fall flat.

It's a corny lighthearted plot but is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. Rob Schneider and Anna Harris both deliver that cheesy comedy that we all need sometimes. 20 years later and I still laugh.

Ridiculous, but fun. Okay... Not the best movie and definitely a little dated, but I still found it charming in all its wackiness and in it's earnest approach at an otherwise admittedly ridiculous premise.

for 2002: actually one of the more tolerable Happy Madison productions big laughs, gross-out jokes, sexual humor and then some Rob Schneider actually does an amazing job playing the opposite sex this movie's more of a fantasy than a realistic situation but whatever oh Adam Sandler, how I love your cameos and this movie does say beauty and perfection arent as are they're cracked up to be I love the supporting cast of Anna Faris and the little brother they still manage to bring in some sentiment into this thing props for that!

I didn't expect a masterpiece, but it's basic Rob Schneider at his worst.
