Other times, it just felt so boring that I tried to stay focused but went off to flip through other pages as I surfed the Internet and it played in the background. Melissa McCarthy does certain troupes that don’t always work and for me, it worked only a little here and there but for the most part, it felt like its been there done that and I just felt a little repulsed by it. Then the humor was kind of weird and absurd (in a bad way) and pretty stupid. I’m not saying I didn’t laugh a little because there were some parts that worked and I kind of chuckled here and there. Identity Thief was mostly really hard to get invested into. Now that I’ve kind of cushioned where this movie could be a hit or miss, I would like to say that this was for the most part a miss. Seth Gordon did Horrible Bosses which I enjoyed but he also did Four Christmases which I dislike. Even the director himself is a hit and miss on my book. So there was a 50/50 chance of this not working. I watched Stephen Chow growing up but I don’t like stupid. Melissa McCarthy falls into the category of not working so often because she always goes into the absurd stupid humor. The humor I appreciate might work for me and not you and vice versa. I always start reviews on comedy genre movies saying that is fully subjective. Mild mannered businessman Sandy Patterson travels from Denver to Florida to confront the deceptively harmless looking woman who has been living it up after stealing Sandy’s identity. Let’s stay positive and give this a go! □Ĭast: Jason Bateman, Melissa McCarthy, John Cho, Jon Favreau, Amanda Peet, T.I., Genesis Rodriguez, Robert Patrick I just hesitate because Melissa McCarthy’s humor doesn’t always work for me. However, there was no doubt that the first round for I would be this choice, Identity Thief. I can only hope I’ll find some treasures. ![]() ![]() I’m taking chances on some pretty funky stuff for some of these letters. My second round is proving to have some holes where I’m waiting for some interesting selections to pop up. You know, these are pretty slim pickings. Moving right along, we hit the I selection.
