Identity Thief

[ISMADDER]

Horrible Bosses’ Jason Bateman and Bridesmaids’ Melissa McCarthy lead the cast of Identity Thief, an all-star comedy in which a regular guy is forced to extreme measures to clear his name. With everything to lose after his identity is stolen, he’ll find out how crazed you can get trying to settle a bad credit score. Unlimited funds have allowed Diana (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 (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. Directed by Horrible Bosses’ Seth Gordon, Identity Thief is produced by Scott Stuber (Ted), Bateman and Pamela Abdy (upcoming 47 Ronin). The comedy co-stars Jon Favreau, Amanda Peet, Tip “T.I.” Harris, Genesis Rodriguez, Morris Chestnut, John Cho, Robert Patrick and Eric Stonestreet.

Man Utd - Real Madrid has put an end to the screening for me!

Was looking forward to seeing the film, well, to seeing it early, not the film itself, until I saw what was on at the O2. He may be 2 hours late, but the fans'll still be horrible to wade through.

To be honest,I think I might prefer the concert to the film.

Just seen this at a packed Croydon cinema.

I went in with low expectations as I saw that the reviews weren't great.

However, was pleasantly surprised. It was funny and heartwarming which made me like the film even more.

Great 2 leads who had great chemistry and looked like they had enjoyed filming this.
