Madcap '70s-aesthetic tribute of the week A Glimpse in the Mind of Charles Swann is a trailer so perfectly measured to the kaleidoscopic parameters of its own self-conviction, you cannot doubt that its central conceit of casting Charlie Sheen as a me-decade sleazeball was scratched onto the fabric of reality before the Big Bang even happened.

After a few moments that worryingly resemble something less even than a sketch from Movie 43, Identity Thief explodes into another order of comedy with scenes of such hilariously epic automobile destruction you realize you will forgive Jason Bateman and Melissa McCarthy anything.
