It is a nice, relaxing, watchable movie. Though, i didn't get the end. She woke up, but being all pretty and so...not the way she was before. Straight dark hair, no make up and belly. During the movie, i thought she would realize that being rich is not everything and she would wish to go back to her own family.

This movie had the potential to be a good film, however the cheesy acting and lack of continuity left me wanting so much more. The main character joy bumps her head only to find herself living in her neighbours family. Who by the way is supposed to be stylish and rich, but the budget and poor decor in the house did not give me that vibe. I'm talking 90s Disney channel decor. Picture Hannah Montana and Lizzie McGuire mixed with old yeller, if the writers of those shows took drugs this would be this movie. I tried to like it I really did but this was not a good movie. Save yourself, I am so sorry if the actors read this. Not personal, better luck next time.

This movie is cute, but honestly very cliché. The same old "having a new life and realising I love my old life", as well as the typical high school setting with mean girls and cliques is starting to become old. The acting is also really bad for 85% of the time. Sweet story line and has a solid plot but other than that it's an average movie with mostly flat humour and bad acting.

I can't remember the last time I saw a movie this great. A positive life lesson with an engaging plot line. Witty and clean humour that everyone can relate to. A movie great for all ages. I've seen this movie more than once now, and enjoy it every time. Hope to see it on Freeform next Christmas.

This holiday movie will not give you trite rants about the holiday spirit or bombard you with clichés. Through the power of her tarot cards, a girl finds herself having the kind of life she envied, but realizes that everyone has to work hard to get what they want and that no one can earn friendships with everyone. Instead of moping, she takes responsibility and tries to adapt to her new lifestyle. The bond between her (Bailee Madison from Once Upon A Time) and her father (French Stewart from 3rd Rock From The Sun) is the biggest highlight. It is also important that she turns down advances from an emotionally abusive boy at school. It is an all-around feel-good movie.

Joy Hoffsteder (Bailee Madison) has a dysfunctional family. Her single dad Bob (French Stewart) is over his head. She pines to be in her seemingly perfect neighbor's family. She's a band geek with only one friend. She gets picked on by the popular cheerleaders and has an unrequited crush on Tom. It's the Christmas holiday. She keeps picking Change from her deck of cards. Then she gets hit by a car driven by the 'perfect' neighbor Marcie. It's a body switched into Marcie's family. She becomes the popular volleyball captain with boyfriend Tom but things are not all good. Her new sister hates her. Her old best friend is scared of her. Her old family is a mess and she's not in love with her new life either. This is perfectly fine for a simple family holiday. Bailee is good at playing the trying too hard character. She should steer into that persona. Everything else is fine. It's a Wonderful Life. It's all that but not as good. The production is a little better than TV movie level. Don't expect too much.

First off I wouldn't call this a holiday movie, just a movie that happens to take place at Christmas time. While the concept was good but the classic, "the grass isn't always greener on the outside", the telling of it fell flat. The ending was just down right horrible and made zero sense.
