"My brain is like oatmeal. I yelled at Kenny today for coloring outside the lines! Megan and I are starting to watch the same TV shows, and I'm liking them! I'm losing it." - Jack Butler

Why watch this? It's funny, tender and great to see the "shoe on the other foot".

Plot Summary: Facing unexpected unemployment, Jack Butler, a Detroit automotive engineer trades roles with his wife, who returns to the advertising workforce after years as a homemaker. He then embarks on a steep learning curve of domestic duties and childcare, including navigating chaotic grocery trips and managing mischievous children. Meanwhile, his wife faces the challenges of the corporate world, including a predatory boss.

Dad's Preview: Switching marital roles might be easy for some, but not the couple in this family comedy. This hilarious film has a lot to teach about appreciating both roles as couples grapple with changes in their lives. By changes I mean children, you know, that massive responsibility that you don't get a manual for. It is however excellent fodder for great comedy. This is Keaton at the height of his comedic film run.
