The plot of 'The Hot Chick'
Rob Schneider was 38 years old when he starred in the 2002 film "The Hot Chick". The film is an American fantasy comedy that follows the story of Jessica Spencer, a popular but mean-spirited high school cheerleader, who accidentally switches bodies with a middle-aged incompetent criminal named Clive Maxtone, played by Schneider.
The plot begins with Jessica (Rachel McAdams) hanging out with her best friend April (Anna Faris) and two other friends, Lulu and Keecia. They visit a mall and enter a new-age store, where they come across a pair of ancient earrings. Unbeknownst to them, these earrings are magical and were once used by Princess Nawa in ancient Abyssinia to switch bodies with a slave girl and escape an arranged marriage. Jessica, not knowing the earrings are magical, steals them.
Meanwhile, Clive, a small-time criminal, robs a nearby gas station. Jessica and her friends stop at the station and mistake Clive for an employee, who then services their car to avoid suspicion. Jessica accidentally drops one of the earrings, and the girls drive away, leaving Clive to pick it up. That evening, both Jessica and Clive put on their respective earrings, causing their bodies to switch magically.
Jessica wakes up in Clive's body and is understandably freaked out. She enlists the help of her friends to figure out what happened and how to get her body back before the upcoming prom and before the switch becomes permanent. Meanwhile, Clive takes advantage of his new body and goes on a crime spree, intending to frame Jessica. Along the way, Jessica learns more about herself and her treatment of others, attempting to fix her past behaviour while trying to get her boyfriend to believe it's really her.
The film received mixed reviews, with some finding it amusing and entertaining, while others found it underwhelming and unfunny. It is rated PG-13 and earned a worldwide gross total of $54,639,553.
