Identity Thief
Unlimited funds have allowed Diana to live it up on the outskirts of Miami, where the queen of retail buys whatever strikes her fancy.

Identity Thief is funny enough, but it needed to be darker, raunchier, and crazier to live up to the promise of its casting.

Though occasionally funny and filled with amusing bit-performances Identity Thief's deeply unlikable co-protagonist stops this would-be buddy comedy in its tracks.

[A] sloppily made exercise of rip-offs and redemption.

It saddles Bateman with a thankless uptight straight-man role while heaping serial slapstick ignominies on his co-star, who gamely bounds through everything the script throws at her.

...utterly confused over what to do with McCarthy as a physical comedienne.
