Interesting, if dumbed-down, adaptation of Jean Stine's "Season of
the Witch" with some 1990s updates thrown in. The stern post World
War 3 government that declares Andre's body forfeit is now an evil
mega-corporation. He's an industrial thief instead of an idle
hustler; and the whole saga is more a violent "fight the system"
action/adventure yarn than the personal journey the novel was. The
book gave short shrift to Andre's first few hours in a new body and
the movie shortchanges that part of the story even further. When
Andre watches the two revolutionaries making love, you get the
impression the movie's about to go somewhwere, but once introduced,
that thread is never picked up and that's the end of it. (edited
out?)
Still it was riveting to actually SEE Andre awaken and realize he's
in Josette's body.
(SPOILER)
Two changes make the movie much more tidy and centripedal than the
book. At the end, Andre, now Celeste, gets payback and the ultimate
in closure by blowing to smithereens the nasty executive in the old
Andre body... a free choice and no going back.
But Celeste also keeps Andre alive by carrying her former self's
baby, conceived back when she was him. Admittedly, all a little too
pat and very Hollywood, but still satisfying.

Good movie mared by bad action sequences. Very well acted on the
whole especially by the Scientist & Karen Duffy as the man in the
woman's body does very well especially at the end when she actepts
her new self - thinking she a lot better off as a caring woman with
love than the unhappy loney man. Some scenes have real power - for
exampled when Ce;est' shoots & destroyers her former body being
used by the villian!

I saw this video also, about 3 or 4 times. I loved it.
I agree, the scene where he/she awakens after the transformation is
terrific. Not enough of the hero/heroines origin or of his being
tutored as a woman and I would love to have seen more, but overall,
one of the best TG flicks I've seen.

Mostly a violence platform, a few good scenes.

Tg element was throughout the movie but the acting was very wooden.

I loved this movie! The scene where he wakes up and discovers who
body he is in is GREAT! He has a realistic reaction to waking up in
a womans body. The only disappointment is they don't show his
training as a woman but all in all not a bad TG movie amnd one of
the few that are not a comedey.

See Duncan Scot Fitzhugh's evaluation of the likelihood of this
"acceptance" theme under the "Ice Angel" entry. Makes you think.

Does the man know the woman of the body that he gets put into? I
saw some of the clips on Youtube but I couldn't understand what
they were saying because some idiot has some foreign language being
played over the English. Does the man in the woman's body meet up
with someone that has been put in his original male body near the
end of the movie?

Tinkermaniac is not an idiot. He went through alot of trouble to
post those clips on youtube. And he warn everybody before that the
clips would not be in english. Now I think you need to say sorry to
tinkermaniac for calling him an idiot.

English isn't the only language in the world, you know. You got
same clip without translation? So post it and everyone will be
happy.

Brainsmart, thanks...
P.S. Is there a possibility to edit posts instead of adding a new
one?

Currently, no. Unless you count trusted users 'deleting' the post.
