Very funny and raunchy! Jason Bateman is a good worker that tries hard to support his wife and children.. with a horrible boss. Then he gets his identity stolen just when he has the opportunity at a wonderful job, and of course the only way they can expedite his innocence is to bring the identity thief to his hometown to be prosecuted. Both actors feed into each other - and have great comedy chemistry together. Crude jokes and humor, a few twists thrown in that I didn't expect (not big ones, this is a comedy!), and then you have an amazing cowboy on a night of too much drinking. Some touching moments thrown in. Loved this movie.
Pros well paced, great actors
Yes, I recommend this movie.

The cast is good. The concept is good. The acting is good. But the story is really thin. Basically its just another buddies on a road trip film with a strange set up. It has a good start. Jason Bateman is a family guy at a company where he is almost invisible to his boss. He is offered a chance to jump ship and work with others who are leaving the company and value him. He's get a big raise and become a VP. But far away, Melissa McCarthy gets on the phone with him under false pretenses and steal his identity and uses it to run a bunch of credit cards. She spends like crazy. Just when Jason goes to his new office it all hits the fan and he is in big trouble and may lose his job. That's when he gets the idea to go find the person who did this and bring them back home to the authorities. It could have been hilarious. But its mostly cute with a few laughs. The cast is wasted here.
I really hoped for more especially after Bridesmaids, but got a lot less. It will be fine on DVD or basic cable one day soon.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
