Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
You don't care enough about these people to want to see them come out on top.

rotten:
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.

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

fresh:
Even with all its shortcomings and sentimental fudges, there is something about McCarthy's refusal to lie down and play the victim that gives it a comic edge. A blunt edge, to be sure, but an edge all the same.

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