Comment
A lawyer and mother begins to wonder what her life would have been like if she had not got married. After meeting a santa in a shopping centre she is magically transported to an alternative life where she is single, rich and successful. Having got the life she wished for she then spends the rest of the film trying to get back to her old life, despite a poor working environment and a dysfunctional family. Lea Thompson has to decide what is important in life, what makes her happy and how far will she go for success. This is a typical life swap comedy, though it is not the best, despite Lea Thompson doing her best with the material she has to work with.
