A bad movie, Identity Thief.

After seeing a few trailers I thought that this movie would be an amusing way to spend an afternoon off from work and relax and laugh. Unfortunately the movie is bad and besides a few funny parts which are probably all in the trailers for this movie, it had nothing else worthy of my money and time. As a matter of a fact the movie starts off with an attempt to kick Ayn Rand. The so called business leader (who is a terrible leader and man) tells another character that he will get him a copy of The Fountanhead so that he can get an understanding of why him getting a huge bonus is good for everyone although no one below him has gotten a bonus in more than three years. So, I offer that forum members save their money and time and do not waste it on such a bad movie as I do not think most will walk out from the theater with a smile.

Thanks. I wasn't intending to see it anyway.

Thank you, Ray K.

This looks like another movie I should add to my "atrocity list" of films that attack capitalism and business (big or otherwise). So far that list includes: The Game, with Michael Douglas and Sean Penn; It's a Wonderful Life; When Worlds Collide (like It's a Wonderful Life, it includes a crotchety old rich man in a wheelchair as a villainous symbol of "greedy" capitalism). Anybody have some other films that flagrantly attack the idea of making money that should be added to the list?

As bankers go, it was Mr. Potter who won (with government help, of course) and George Bailey who lost.

There are corrupt businessmen. That is the sad truth. And the good guys do not always win and the bad guys are not always hoisted on their own petards. That is also a sad truth.
