Identity Thief has a comedy trifecter with Seth Gordon (Horrible Bosses) directing Jason Bateman (The Switch) and Melissa McCarthy (Bridesmaids).
In the movie, Bateman plays Sandy Patterson, a mild-mannered accounts rep whose far from home in Florida. McCarthy plays Diana, who’s living it up on the outskirts of Orlando thanks to Patterson’s stolen ID. With a week to bring down the con artist, Patterson goes to extreme measures to clear his name.
R-rated Identity Thief also stars Jon Favreau (Couples Retreat), Amanda Peet (2012), John Cho (A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas) and Robert Patrick (Cop Land).
Critics didn’t think much of the film, with Miami Herald’s Rene Rodriguez writing: “Identity Thief apparently forgets it was supposed to be a comedy.” Still, the movie’s stars brought in $130 million at the box office.
Both the DVD and Blu-ray/DVD Combo contain more laughs with an unrated version of the film.
The DVD also comes with:
- gag reel
- and a making-of featurette.
And the Blu-ray adds:
- “Scene Stealing: Capturing the Humor of Identity Thief“
- “The Skiptracer’s Van” with Robert Patrick in character as The Skiptracer telling us what’s most important to him
- alternate takes
- downloadable digital copy
- instant streaming via UltraViolet.
