Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)
Pro: It does a good job of making the whole process seem real.
Matt’s positive attitude is delightful.
Con: Matt has it a little too easy. He takes care of his new body, gets business, makes powerful friends, even gets his old body back. The conflict feels minor and contrived.
