Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
In sum, it's a good, not great, movie of a type I like but that most people don't.
There's nothing even a little bit original about any of this, but in a way that's the point.
The next time you're invited to a French dinner party, you might want to give it a pass, if the tedious proceedings in Change of Plans are any indication.
Refuses to take anything too seriously, staking out a middle ground between melodrama and farce.
