CGiii Comment

A body-swapping catastrophe...of gargantuan proportions.

Martinez displays no talent for either direction or writing.

The acting is below that of an unskilled amateur. The comedy is like being whacked in the face with a sledgehammer.

As for originality...there is absolutely none - a tired, stagnant old premise that deserves to be buried and forgotten about.

A bomb.

The(ir) Blurb...

It tells the story of five different people who got their souls switched in the middle of a wedding preparation on a solar eclipse. Stefanie's (the bride) soul gets into the body of the snobby Precy, whose soul gets into the yaya, Medelyn, whose soul switches with Bien, the grandfather, whose soul enters the gay beautician's body, Toffee, whose soul enters Stefanie's body. The problem is the souls are happy where they are except for the bride, whose wedding is coming. She now has to find a way to get into their own bodies. After two years, they attempt to repeat the accident on the Magnetic Hill. Everything got normal and have the souls on the right body on the fourth and final attempt.
