Per Wikipedia’s definition, Twin films are films with the same or very similar plot, produced or released at the same time by two different film studios. Which do you prefer? Three of these were all in 1988. Dang.

Only seen Big and Vice Versa and I like both - I'll pick VV bc that completely surprised me and won me over.
Body swap movies are a guilty pleasure - lotta them are corny and don't work, but I like to see how it frees the actor and how they play it and it can be very funny - Ellen Barkin in Switch - Jack Black/Karen Gillan in Jumanji - JLC in Freaky Friday - Craig Roberts at his funniest in that one ep of Red Oaks where he's 'playing' Richard Kind. Could be good wicked fun too like Hello Mary Lou Prom Night II...

Where 17 again and 13 going on 30?  This series focuses on films released at/around the same time. In this case, 1988/1989. |

Big, and it isn't particularly close, although I think Vice Versa is a cute movie. 18 Again is a really really messed up movie, though. Like people complain about the Elizabeth Perkins romance subplot in Big, but 18 Again features a scene where George Burns in the teens body tries to hit on a chick, and it comes off as quite creepy.
