If I Were a Boy (2017)

Quartile rating: 5.5/10 · 1 rating

Jeanne wakes up one morning and her life is about to take a funny turn, at first sight nothing has changed in her - to a small detail.

The Quartile Take

A French gender-swap comedy with a familiar premise and modest execution. The body-swap/gender-reversal concept is well-worn territory with little distinctive execution to set it apart. Acting and cinematography are serviceable but unremarkable, and the plot follows predictable beats typical of the genre. The ending resolves conventionally without much surprise or emotional payoff. A competent but forgettable entry in a crowded subgenre.
