The Heat

Honestly, I wasn't that interested in this movie. Like Identity Thief, I didn't think this movie looked very good from the previews. Like Identity Thief, I was wrong and actually liked it. 

This is a fun, mindless movie. If you look at it closely, the story isn't that great. It is fun though and that's why we go to the movies.  The story is your basic mismatched "buddy cop" movie like 48 Hours, Beverly Hills Cop, Rush Hour or Lethal Weapon. Melissa McCarthy and Sandra Bullock play their pretty standard roles. I laughed out loud and that's really the biggest thing you need with a comedy. 

If you're looking for a good comedy for a date or eventually a night at home (when on DVD), this will fit the bill. I look forward to seeing the sequel soon. 

+ Fun

- Story not the best

+ Good team up

- Having the same name as the unspeakable NBA team in Miami

Overall Score: 74 (Passing)
