Stellead Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Abbigail Bush what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Oliver Thatcher Watson This film isn't necessarily bad, but it's not that good. The acting is just passable, the story is very bland, and the whole flow this film is overly predictable. The premise is good, however. The actors and actresses in this film did alright. They seemed pretty believable for the most part, but a few of them just didn't seem to give it their all, and came off as somewhat boring. The story, while it's premise is good, is very bland. The story itself is pretty good for the most part. However, it seems very predictable and kind of aimless. Other than all that, I was impressed with Lifetime with this film, considering some other films from Lifetime, Hallmark, Freeform, etc., are mostly garbage in my opinion. But this film was good enough for me to think this film was better than most from Lifetime, Hallmark, Freeform, etc. I don't think I can really recommend this to anyone, as there are better films than this, but I'm sure that most people who like films from Lifetime would enjoy this film, probably more than others they have seen on that Channel.

elshikh4 I have learned not to wait much of a TV movie. Now this is a "based on true story" one that shows such a dangerous issue in a very good way too.At first I sat to watch it because it has 2 of my favorite ladies. 10 years ago I began a list for the beautiful actresses I love, maybe to memorize them and immortalize them for me. From the earliest names I wrote there was Kimberly Williams-Paisley who kind of dazzled me with her cuteness in (Father of The Bride). And (Annabella Sciorra), who actually did the same, in (Cop Land). But as (Identity Theft) went on, I found more reasons to pay attention for.The case is scary. Big part of its scaring is that it's realistic. The matter of "it could happen to you" is so pressing this time. And it is more scary since there are no deterrent laws for it yet. So in the digital age we live, destroying the life of someone financially and morally has become very easy job to do, and getting away with it yet become easier ! Moreover, the movie so smartly made of the main situation such a physiological problem of loving a person, and her life, so much to become her. This cat and mouse game between a girl and a criminal copy of her was creative. Then when it dealt with the collapse of the copy, it gave us a deeply sad side to the story, which made it so human and effective. And, finally, what a dramatic climax it achieved when the copy/Connie phones her victim/Michelle, finding no one but her to seek help from, while she became unable to be a copy anymore or even herself. You can appreciate these efforts more when you know that the 2 characters, in the real story, never met at all (as I read somewhere). The meeting between them both at the end was a fine master scene. And the finale in the courtroom was shocking enough. From that joke of a judge, to lines like "life isn't fair/ I expected it to be fair here!", ending with the lead's hot monologue about the tragedy of losing her "good name" ; the whole scene was so zealous, true and bitter statement about the movie's main case. As for the acting, it's more than clear that (Annabella) won, but not for (Kimberly)'s weak performance; it's simply for one logical reason which's the power of Connie's role in the first place. This character got spectrum of mixed feelings, a more pathetic status, being in problem (like the main character) yet sick, with no love, no escape, and no cure. All of that while the script didn't give much to (Kimberly)'s character Michelle but to smile naively for half of the time, and frown for the other half! Nevertheless she did the last scene perfectly with high energy and intensive rage. I believed her utterly.(Identity Theft : The Michelle Brown Story) isn't a movie to be forgotten easily. Before gathering 2 of my favorite chicks in one movie, or even making a good thrill out of its story, it enlightens us with ugly crime and uglier facts that no other movie I know showed seriously or cared about.

gov-gov22 I like this movie very much. Anyone committing or having committed ID Theft should be made to watch this movie no less than 20hrs a day and not less than 2yrs every day. Maybe then people will understand what kind of damage they have caused and stop and think about it. I can personally related because two people in my extended family did this and they're getting off the easy way. No sympathy should be the punishment. Anyway I thought the movie was directed and performed with the excellence to make this seem so realistic and not twist the truth of what happened. I think everyone should watch this movie. It really gives you an idea of what can happened when you least expect it.

BreanneB I thought this movie was excellent, entertaining and very informing of people like Connie Volkos. She is a despicable thief, a nut and definitely personality disordered and sociopathic. She is not concerned with ruining other people's lives and is oblivious to the devastation she causes. She takes no responsibility for her actions and thinks she can just get away with things. It all started when Michelle Brown (the victim) walks into the loan office were Connie worked, with a skirt on that Connie liked. When her credit card is declined at the store she steals Michelle's credit card and information and dishonestly has the luxuries life, she wants. In the end all I can say to her is that, "Hey when you've layed around your whole life, you don't just get to say one day, "Oh I think I want what everybody else has worked so hard for their whole life". It does not work that way".
