One form fits every positive statement, whether someone is tired or likes a film, so there's nothing to change. The phrase is conversational: people say it to friends and colleagues and write it in messages.

It's tempting to answer Me too whenever you agree, but too works only after positive statements. If the first sentence contains don't, can't, never or another negative, agree with Me neither.
Me too sounds simple and conversational. A slightly more formal reply is So do I, So am I or So have I, repeating the auxiliary verb from the first sentence: 'I've finished the report.' 'So have I.' After a negative sentence, the same pattern gives Neither do I.
