Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Konterr Brilliant and touching

Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

betterthanbig As being straight and open minded, this has to be one of the worst movies I have watched this year. Reading the other reviews actually was the reason I decided to make myself view. As far as the gay/straight and friend thing went, it was all up in your face. This movie anything but about being "real friends". The entire movie was very prejudice throughout with the "gay" being a negative or "different" aspect. I was hoping this movie would treat people like people and that the lifestyle or bedroom matters were of no importance. This movie failed in my honest opinion, but another reason to never take IMDb ratings with more than a grain of salt. Several movies I know of that deserve a solid 9 are rated as a 4 here. I come out better by taking the ratings as a sarcastic number instead of realistic. (Then the ratings system is more in line with the truth). I am amazed at the dozen reviews here. Perhaps they are family of IMDb owners and the reviews were just a starter thing to get people to give their opinion, but to me seemed like they were judging a different movie than the one it is listed under.

walterhpdx I got this movie and Geography Club, thinking I'd like Geography Club more - but I was blown out of the water. It's hard to do what Matty does in this movie is harder than nearly any teenager has the ability to do. But how it's done is in a lighthearted way, while the reaction of Michael is exactly how I would have expected it to go. These lifelong friends have their lives turned upside down just because one of them decides to be truthful about who he really is.This movie has a lot more stars in it than you'd think, which is a nice little bonus. But Matty & Michael's stories are what get you going from the opening scene, and accompanied by a great musical score, keep you going to the very end.

Gordon-11 This film tells the story of two best friends in high school preparing for prom. One of them comes out as gay, and their friendship is tested."Date and Switch" is a fun and lighthearted comedy about a teenager coming to terms with his sexuality, exploring his life and lifestyle. The film is full of stereotypical characters and situations, but one thing that is not stereotypical is that the lead characters are not the super camp queen that is present in many gay films. The emotional climax is a little disappointing, but the fun and happy ending makes up for it. "Date and Switch" has a but of predictability and a bit of unpredictability. I guess that's what makes the film fun.

crazeevw Not your every day coming out movie. Great characters, wonderful story line.Wish there were more 'gay' movies that were this good.All of the characters were well acted, especially loved seeing Megan Mulally, even though she had a small part in this movie. Kinda slow to begin, but I guess all movies need a bit of background at first. Really don't want to tell a lot of spoilers in here, actors were well cast, and did a wonderful job here. Hope the writers don't stop, but continue to produce great movies.
