Shelby and Cyrus invite Reuben, Dennis, Nikki, Brooke, and Maya to his family's home for a party ahead of his wedding. They're excited to see their mutual friend Forbes, who vanished after being expelled from college for sneaking in his high school sister, Beatrice. Beatrice had developed an obsession with Dennis, who was dating Nikki at the time, leading to her admission into a mental facility.

Forbes arrives with a suitcase containing a device that allows people to swap bodies. After a brief demonstration, he proposes a game where they guess who is in whose body. Although initially hesitant, the group decides to participate, snapping Polaroid photos for reference.

In the first round, they all swap bodies but misidentify who is who. Cyrus, now in Reuben's body, is frustrated when Forbes, in Dennis's body, pretends to be him. When Cyrus kisses Maya, who is in Nikki's body, it stirs jealousy and confusion, especially as Shelby interacts with other men. After the round, Cyrus is uneasy about Forbes's antics but reluctantly joins round two after Shelby expresses interest and convinces him that the experience would improve their relationship. 

In the second round, Shelby swaps into Nikki's body and becomes enamored with her looks and social media fame. Meanwhile, Cyrus, in Forbes's body, panics and demands to end the game. As the group tries to switch back, a rooftop balcony collapses, killing Reuben and Brooke during an intimate moment.

With tensions high, the group argues over their next steps. Forbes refuses to call the police, fearing the device will be confiscated. Dennis, furious about his involvement in Forbes's expulsion, calls the police, claiming Cyrus has killed Reuben and Maya. A chaotic confrontation ensues, with Shelby using the device for leverage, threatening Nikki’s career with a damaging video.

With such power in their hands, would they be willing to return to their own lives?

MY REVIEW

What I Like:  

• Has the 'Freaky Friday' vibe, but with more twists. 
• The cast are good

What I Don't Like:

• One blink and you'll lost the movie - too many switches and at times, hard to remember who's who. 

Will I Watch It Again: Yes, I would.  

Overall: 4.3/ 5.0
