Business man Sandy Patterson travels from Denver to Florida after he discovers that his identity has been stolen. His goal is to find the woman who stole his identity, Diana, and force her to confess to her crimes. This proves even more challenging when Diana is being hunted by other criminals and a bounty hunter.This film was directed by Seth Gordon. This film follows a recent trend in having identities stolen, and takes it a step further into finding the culprit. It is a fun and original idea that gets bogged with too much unnecessary additions. Having the criminals and the bounty hunter, that is never really explained, is too much for the story, They are only added to keep comedic action in this film's story. The emotional elements of the film feel too forced. A lot of the comedy comes from its physical comedy, and actress McCarthy's general over the top nature. The film is highly predictable with its adult humor. Jason Bateman played the role of Sandy Patterson. He plays the familiar straight laced business man role that everyone is familiar with. He is good in this familiar role, but isn't highly likable. Melissa McCarthy played the role of Diana. She returned to her familiar over the top role. The emotional parts of the character feels way to forced.
I give this film 3 out of 5 stars! It does have it moments of humor. Its a bit too over the top, and is bogged down by some unneeded characters.
