OK, people, its a film about brain transplants.
Once you get past this utterly outlandish concept, then movie actually proves to be quite entertaining and, in some areas, quite well done. I do have issues with the ending - basically, the hero gets his girlfriend pregnant, both are killed, but his brain is whipped out at the last moment and put into her body. Thus the hero is a heroine for most of the movie.
It does seem to me that if you put a man's brain in a woman's body you would end up with a woman who thought and acted in a "masculine" way, but at the end of the movie the heroine seems to exhibit stereotypical maternal instincts. OK, you could argue that having all those feminine hormones washing around your bloodstream may affect your way of thinking, but quite frankly this film, entertaining though it is, just isn't worth arguing about.
This film can be quite good fun, especially when served with generous amounts of alcohol.
