One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

This is the nicest comedy I've ever seen. It has soo much fun, jokes and silly moments that you'll enjoy. I could not stop laughing at these movie.. but, it has some romantic moments too.. I think that this is such a nice movie for girl's night out or even for a date.

Now, I wouldn't consider this a part of my favourite movies but it was nice to kick back and relax by watching this switching bodies movie. I have to say both actors did an amazing job to play the part of the opposite sex. I personally think this movie is good if you want to waste your time and have nothing to do?

It's a boy girl thing (2006) is a very well made film, it may surprise some people that it's so good, because it looks like just an average throw away teenage flick. This movie rises above that level of quality and turns out to be very touching, intimate, and perfect young adult fair. I loved the casting, they all did a fabulous job. Kevin Zegers is just perfect in the role of Woody Deane, he is just the stereotypical high school football jock who only cares about girls and rap music at first, but he evolves throughout the films course and changes for the better. Samaire Armstrong plays her role well, she is Nell Bedworth, the very smart girl in school that's got Yale in her future. The movie is written well and the script makes you care about the main characters, the writing deepens the woody and nell's connection. The comedy in the movie is good, although to be honest, this isn't a comedy film, it's more of a romantic drama with a fantasy element attached to it. It's perfect fair for youth, and it's better than the average movie targeted toward to a young audience. 9/10 for it's a boy girl thing.

Warning spoilers!OK so we see the opening credits with two stick figures (one male one female) fighting. From child hood to teenage hood? Anyways this seems like an important part of the movie. Does this mean that the two main characters grew up together? Well this is where the messiness begins in this movie. Nothing is explained or clarified.So then we learn that the girl is a smarty pants and the guy is basically an idiot that is only interested in sports. We don't get much explanation as to why they hate each other. Does not seem like they disagree much. They both want a future. I mean everyone can't be a writer, or a football player, we NEED variety. Again, going with the theme of making no sense it's NEVER explained why they hate each other. We are just told they do, so they do. That's it.The mess continues...the rest of the movie is your basic body switching movie. Some ancient relic (once again not explained to go with the movie's theme of messiness) switches their bodies. And they don't switch back until they learned their 'lesson'. Which is ONCE AGAIN NOT EXPLAINED. Ugh, this movie is really stupid.At the end of the movie they 'realize' that they are in love with each other, what? Why? Oh yes, this is not explained either. Mutual understanding = love? Umm, is that not just called common sense? Like some person loves cooking, so they want to be a chef. Does that mean ALL the people who know this SIMPLE FACT are IN LOVE with this person!? LolOh dear, I'm not even going to get into the sexist stereotypes this move makes in depth. But basically here goes; all men like sports, there are only two types of women $1ut$ and uptight girls, women are put on this earth to only please men, and should be ashamed of themselves if they have any desires of ANY kind. Wow.... I'm not even scratching the surface, believe me.But the actors are good in this. Too bad they were not given ANY good material to work with. This movie delivers eye-candy and that's it. You will get no coherent plot.
