I enjoyed The Switch. I’m not surprised it didn’t win any
awards but it was a pretty entertaining bit of comedy, even if it did try to be
a bit too serious at times. Of course, having a very affordable way to watch
movies, like Blockbuster online probably affects my estimation of it. When I
really don’t like a movie—or simply changed my mind about my mood—I have the
option for in-store exchanges, plus they get many new releases long before
Netflix and Redbox. Being a DISH Network employee and subscriber I’m glad to
say that currently you can get 3 months of Blockbuster free (http://goo.gl/wuMrN) when
you switch over to DISH. That’s in addition to all the other great offers going
on too!
