Review of The Heat (2006) by Aaron B — 19 Sep 2017

Mellisa McCarthy has been one of my favorite stars with her recent lead roles in Identity Theft, Spy, and The Boss. Hilarious female leads are always great to see.

This begining of the movie was pretty weak and corny. They are trying to establish Sandra as a cocky and smart federal agent but that scene seems so lazy. It's not believable plus (spoiler) she's wrong about the Red Falls Killer which she uses to prop up her intelligence in that scene. It also seems a bit political because she's the only female officer and all the other agents apparently became agents out pf highschool.

Once you gey through the first scene it really develops into a good story line. Mellisa makes her first appearance kicking a married guys a$$ for soliciting a prostitue.

When her and Sandra first clash together, Sandra really fits into the role of what her character is suppose to be. Humbling her down to show the humor of her "sad life".

Overall its a very funny movie. I've watched it a few times already. One of my favorite scenes is when Mellissa is looking captains balls and then he devuldges his age to Sandra claiming his 5 year old calls him grandpa. I laugh at that everytime.
