"Identity Thief" Avoid this one!

What a stinker. I was in the mood for something light, so I opted for this one. I had to stop it about 45 minutes into it. I should have quit after 5 minutes. Painfully bad.

Maybe you were not in the mood. I’ve watched movies that I thought sucked but at some point watched it again and loved it.

Humor's a funny thing. I quit it after about an hour and watched the "Best of Monty Python" special on Netflix. Now THAT'S some funny stuff.

Sometimes things start out not right for me and get better. Didn't happen.

I especially disliked Mellissa McCarty in this one. She's pretty hit or miss with me. This one was a total miss.

Hit or miss with me and usually a miss, a little of her goes a long way.
