It's What's Inside is one of the funniest, most clever, and narratively ambitious movies I've seen in a long while.
While the film’s social commentary isn’t radically incisive, it does manage to capture the nature of a true party game: excitement initially abounds, but you can’t play along forever.

It’s What’s Inside understands the concept of sympathy, but with people like this, the movie advises against it.
It’s What’s Inside is a fun jaunt through the dynamics of a friend group and the interiorities of its members, even as it sanitizes its potential.
The body-swap movie “It’s What’s Inside” dazzles up to the moment its plot gets going.
There’s a cracking elevator pitch of an idea here (one wonders if inevitable sequels will be able to squeeze more juice from it) but Jardin’s cocky, in-your-face excess coupled with his lack of follow-through makes this an unwinnable game.
This tale of self-involved millennials, a mystery machine, and a whole mess of purposefully mistaken identities is the kind of mashup of high-concept horror and ham-fisted satire that mistakes complicated for complex and a pile-up of confusing plot twists for storytelling.
This film is going to be one of the ones that will generate the most mixed opinions. You have to give it its time to find the hidden flavor of the plot, full of surprises that will not be pleasant. The result is a film that you will either love or hate.

A group of narcissists get together with a magic machine that lets you swap bodies. Of course stuff starts going poorly when you have a couple psychopaths mixed into the group.
The ending is obvious from round one so don't expect any big reveals, but there are enough twists and turns throughout to make it enjoyable.
