The Heat Review

*** The Heat Review ***

The Heat Starring Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy. I thought the film was hilariously laugh out loud funny film. I thought that Bullock and McCarthy have terrific chemistry and elevate the simple-minded material with their riffing and adept physical comedy. The film does have a few flaws mainly in the script and dialogue which relies on the same type of buddy cop dynamic and clichés that have been done hundreds of times before. But despite similarities and an overdone plot, it's still a very funny movie. Surprisingly, there are also a few twists in the film that few will see coming. The main reason the film was awesome was because of Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy made this movie better than it should be. The action and fighting sequences were very well done and very well choreographed. The talents of director Paul Feig, who we know is highly capable of showing the intricacies of female relationships from his other film, 'Bridesmaids' and he knows funny, and he gives his actors plenty of room to work and improv time to knock back shots, bust a move and beat up men . The film has no claims on sophistication or originality, but it includes perhaps a never seen level of absurdity and joyful sense of naughtiness. I just thought it was simply hilarious, very enjoyable and surprisingly witty lines. I will give this film a B+.
