Saintly Switch (1999)

Well meaning kids try to help their parents' marital problems with some witchcraft, but instead switch their souls. Here in the picture, they have just woken up in the wrong bodies.

The gender issues are explored, but the whole thing is rather superficial, with the father a macho football player who tramples on women's sensitivities. But he, in a female body, discovers he is pregnant.

There's quite a lot of football action in the film, and I can imagine someone insisting that this was necessary to attract boys' interest in the film; I think it may have fallen between two stools, and the whole screenplay is rather weak.

The film is also known as In Your Shoes.
