Love Switch

This film failed on multiple fronts. Poor acting from some of the cast (the boy acted like a robot) but I don't fault them much because I'd say the direction and writing was the main culprit.

Did any of the writers of this film ever interact with real children their entire lives? I ask because the 2nd grader is depicted as the dumbest 8 year old in film history.

What 8 year old does not know what his school looks like? The name of his school (4-5 year olds learn this kind of stuff)? How to do literally any assignment without his mom?

The entire focus of the film was on the couple's "failing marriage" (which wasn't that bad as portrayed btw), but I'd say their much larger problem was their child with a learning disability.

"The therapist" has a painfully bad British accent that fades in and out throughout the film, was there a valid reason to make her British?

Also, weird choice that in order to pretend his character was a woman trapped in a man's body, the father character was obviously told to just act "like a gay guy". It was strangely offensive to watch.

I really don't understand how this film got greenlit, other than a budget of a few thousand dollars.
