Poor handled material about a real story concerning a young woman (Williams) who has all her data and her identity too stole by an ambitious and ill minded secretary (Sciorra). The movie goes on and on, never offering any climax moments or interesting facts, until the constrained ending when informations about the facts and the persons involved are given like a policial report.

The story of this movie has potential, indeed. Nowdays, one of the big problems in commerce activity is the real possibility of one has all his or hers personal information (name, number of social security, ID or credit card)used by stealers and modern pirates in a series of crimes.

Unfortunately, 'Identity Theft' never hits the bull eye. In my opinion, I think this movie was made almost with an amateur touch, like a second grade production. I give this one a 3 (three).

While I am glad there is a movie such as this to help inform people about this sort of thing, there were a few things about the movie that angered me. while I do not want to spoil the movie for anyone...I was very angry what the real Michelle had to go through. Also, it was very disappointing that the criminal got such a light sentence. Anyone who commits this type of crime should be given harsher penalties otherwise, when they are released, they may just do it again. There just isn't enough being done about identity theft and frauds these days. A slap on the wrist is just not enough. Also, victims should NOT be afraid to fight back harder. Being scared when you see someone commit a crime against you is not going to stop criminals. If this had been me, (thank the Lord it wasn't) she would not have been able to get away. She would not have had the opp. to do some things she did.....

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.

This is a mostly failed attempt at producing a biographic movie out of the real-life story of a woman whose identity was stolen and went through a difficult time to clear her name.

It had a good story line to cling on, exploring a theme that is not overused in drama or thriller movies.

However, the overall quality of production and editing is awful. Acting is not as awful, but whatever qualities the cast had were canceled by the extremely predictable scene and lines. Character building is non-existent, it appears they took every single one from a menu of pre-packaged profiles.

In the end, the whole movie looks like it was an overambitious Public Service Announcement.

I loved this movie because, if it had been the reverse(one man stealing another man's identity), I don't think, you would see the emotional anxiety, a victim of identity theft, goes through!!! Sure women are more emotional but, I think, that was an advantage because, it enables illustration of, the pain, regardless of sex, what an identity theft victim goes through...the pain, the anguish, having to constantly prove, you are who, you say you.

I am sorry if women find this offensive. I feel that women, are far more honest with, both, themselves and, others when it comes to expressing pain, regardless of what type.

I wanted to like this movie because I am aware identity theft is a problem. But it was soooo hard to root for Michelle Brown because she was too perfect, almost sickening sweet with not a care in site. Except that she never lived in a house. Boo hoo. As soon as life threw her a curve ball, she whined about life being unfair even though she did everything right, she was terrible to her bf who renovated her entire house & the people she worked with. I am not saying she deserved what happened but it was really hard to root for someone suffering first world problems when she already had so much. When the judge told her to get over it because there were worst things in life, I might have shed a tear of happiness.
