Movie Review for Parents
-by Ginger
A woman artificially inseminates herself with a turkey baster. The movie then jumps to seven years later and the father meets his son. This movie screams adult themes. I would not take children of any age to this movie. The main character is a single mom throughout the movie.
The movie is busting with direct sexual references, including accurate anatomical features. The entire movie is about the reproductive process, including how the entire reproductive process gets started. The main character is single. When the child first meets his father/donor for the first time, the mother introduces the father as an “uncle”. The movie contains many questionable actions by the main character in response to motherhood. The Switch shakes up traditional family roles, such as the father’s role in the partnership, and throws them out the window. It makes light of some serious adult themes. It is not appropriate for children and teens probably would not like it. It is an adult drama.
