Identity Thief Movie Synopsis

Unlimited funds have allowed Diana (Melissa McCarthy) to live it up on the outskirts of Miami, where the queen of retail buys whatever strikes her fancy. There's only one glitch: The ID she's using to finance these sprees reads “Sandy Bigelow Patterson” ... and it belongs to an accounts rep (Jason Bateman) who lives halfway across the U.S.

With only one week to hunt down the con artist before his world implodes, the real Sandy Bigelow Patterson heads south to confront the woman with an all-access pass to his life. And as he attempts to bribe, coax and wrangle her the 2,000 miles to Denver, one easy target will discover just how tough it is to get your name back.

  It was okay. I expected it to be much funnier than it was. Not enough laughs. Not a laugh out loud movie for me...a disappointment.

  Funny but could do better.

  This movie is hilarious start to finish. Bateman and McCarthy are exactly how you want them to be. It's a comedy people so you can't expect it to have this elaborate plot. Kept me laughing all the way.
