A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

This is a very typical Hallmark Christmas seasonal movie in every sense of the term. And if that is good or bad, is of course a matter of personal preference.The movie had an adequate storyline, which was generic and straight forward for sure, and you knew exactly how the movie would end right from the very beginning. There was a good continuous flow to the movie.The cast was doing good jobs with their given roles and characters, and they had some good acting performers on the cast list. Candace Cameron Bure was nicely cast for a movie such as this and actually carried herself and the movie quite well throughout the entire movie.While this is not a Christmas classic, it is definitely is well worth watching once with family and loved ones during the holiday seasons.

The best part of this film is it was not your typical Christmas film. When it says 'Switched', that seems not interesting. There are many films on that theme, so you might think you are exhausted to take a chance on this. But this is a good, a decent one at least. Even though, it revolved on a silly concept, everything was told in a much better way. I meant very maturely, without any fuss.Chris and Kate a twin drifted away while growing into adults. Now on one Christmas eve they are brought together by their loving father. They envied each others lives, which led them to switch the place just for like a day as they did a long ago. But the following events made them stay a bit longer. For such deed, there's always waits a serious consequence to explode and how that affects these sisters are revealed in the climax.Only recently I've checked out Candance Cameron's 'Aurora Teagarde Mystery' film series and liked them. So I was excited for this to see her one more time. A much better Christmas film I've seen in this season. Because usually Christmas themed films are overwhelmed with nothing but Christmas elements. This one happened in the backdrop of Christmas, but the preference was given to other than that. Forget about the cliches, but still it is worth a watch. Nothing like children's films you've seen on the same theme.6.5/10

This was very cute and it the typical Hallmark "end up in a small town and leave the wealthy fiancé for the local Everyman" Christmas movie. The concept of switching twins hasn't been done in Christmas movies that I've seen. My only complaint is that the movie was supposed to be set in Colorado but was so very clearly SLC instead of Denver with no good reason. And the character's references to towns in Colorado were off. They could have just set it in Salt Lake and it would have been fine. Not a big deal to everyone else in the country but very annoying to the Coloradans.

I typically watch Hallmark Christmas movies for the drinking game aspect (i.e. main characters with names associated with Christmas, cynics who change and become believers in the spirit of Christmas, shameless brand plugs), so I of course decided to watch Switched for Christmas. However, my pursuit of getting buzzed was tarnished by Hallmark's incessant push to portray the city of Littleton, CO, as a podunk, fly-over, small town an hour away from Denver. Littleton is a suburb of Denver; it is an easy 20 minute drive between the two downtown areas of both cities, and the limits of both cities actually touch if you look at a map of the Denver metro area. It also has a population of like 50,000 people, so it certainly is not the small town that it is annoyingly called over and over again in the movie. So please, Hallmark, for the love of God, please do some research of the place in which your movies are set. That being said, this is easily one of my top 5 favorite Hallmark Christmas movies.
