Review by planktonrules

The story is told in a semi-documentary style. When it begins, a District Attorney, David Rowe, is getting the world's first brain transplant...with his race being switched in the process! Apparently, both men would die without this surgery.

Most of the film is not about the surgery but more about Rowe's reaction AND the reaction of those around him to his new body. Many dislike the new David but it's not just confined to his old race who are uncomfortable with him. What's in store for this guy in the long run?

Amazingly, while the setup is ridiculous....it is done well. At least, that is until later in the film when a plot involving a racist sheriff is introduced. It, too, is interesting...but also muddles the film's message.

While this film is not nearly as schlocky and stupid as such films as "The Thing With Two Heads" (where a racist's head is attached to a living African-American man), the story is laughable and silly....although it TRIES to make a statement about race in America. But this message is a bit confusing in the film and the story has good points to make...but also will likely make most laugh at the mere concept. As a result, it's a very interesting failure.
